Geocache Description:


This cache is not located at the posted coordinates.  You have to figure out the location on your own.

For this cache - You will need to download and play the Wherigo cartridge to find where the cache is hidden. This Wherigo converts your player into a virtual version of the "Reverse Cache Box" which tells you the distance to the cache, but not the bearing. You may begin your search from any spot in the world using your Smartphone or Wherigo compatible GPS to navigate to the cache. The cartridge was created by -Waldmeister- and is available to download here.
-Waldmeister-'s The first Reverse Cache [WIG] is the original cache in this family.

 

Your task is to find the cache by periodically querying your Reverse Cache Box for the distance to the final location. Try to use your Reverse Cache Box as few times as possible. All instructions and necessary information needed to complete the cartridge is contained within it. The cartridge is multilingual. To begin, you will have to type this code into your player:

115341

468500

930388

Once you zero in on a spot close to the final, you can try to find it yourself without any more queries. If you make a query within a very short distance, you'll receive the actual coordinates and can follow your GPS from there. Otherwise, you probably won't need your GPS receiver at all when playing this wherigo. After you make the find, feel free to post the stats (number of queries, etc.) from your search as part of your log. There's no "completion code" for this cartridge.

It is suggested that you take the code with you on your journey. It will be needed if it becomes necessary to restart your player for any reason.

No room for swag. Bring a writing utencil. As always have fun, CITO when you can, be safe, play fair and make lasting memories! 

 

If you want to create your own Reverse Wherigo, you can do so using the passcode you receive at the end of the game. The passcode is unique to you and can't be shared with other cachers. Simply choose "create" rather than "play" when starting the Reverse Wherigo and enter your passcode at that point. You will need to be at the final location for your hide, with a good signal on your device. The cartridge will then give you the exact coordinates (which you'll need when creating the geocache online) and the three six-digit sequences that identify that location in the cartridge. Write these down, hide your container and create your very own Reverse Wherigo! Just be sure to notify -Waldmeister- as a courtesy (no advance permission needed)
