What is a challenge cache?
A challenge cache requires seekers to find an associated physical cache, and to find an additional set of geocaches as defined by the challenge owner. Challenge caches encourage cachers to set and achieve fun goals.
Introduction to the Series
Challenge caches are supposed to challenge you!
While this seems to be obvious, most challenge caches are written for cachers that have been playing for quite a while. A calendar year's worth of mysteries for a new starter who has barely tried puzzles, is not a challenge, it is impossible.
This small series is to introduce you to the concept of challenges, and get you used to using checkers, and working out what you need to do to complete a challenge.
Hopefully this will ease you into the more challenging challenges.
All of these challenges can be completed with the caches placed around Rutherglen.
The challenge cache can be found at the listed co-ordinates and the logbook can be signed, however a found log cannot be listed until the challenge is completed and proof offered. This is done by using the checker on the cache page. This is a link to ProjectGC, who will review your statistics and show you if you comply with the challenge's requirements.
What is a Wherigo® Cache?
Wherigo® Caches are GPS-enabled adventures in the real world. They use GPS technology to guide players to physical locations where they can interact with virtual or physical objects. Wherigo Caches can have different designs that overlap with other cache types. If a cache uses a Wherigo cartridge, it is considered a Wherigo cache.
Find a Wherigo Cache
To find a Wherigo Cache, you need an app that has the ability to play Wherigo cartridges. The following apps have this capability:
iPhone
Wherigo® - Wherigo specific application
Android
WhereYouGo - Wherigo specific application
Geooh Go - Geocaching application with Wherigo cartridge functionality
These apps allow you to play interactive game cartridges in the real world. Explore new locations, solve puzzles, or experience an interactive fictional story in the real world using only a GPS-enabled device.
