Geocache Description:


Saturday 8/19/2023, between 2:30-4:00PM stop by GeocachingAlex1's event and celebrate National Geocaching Day in style.

Historically I have only come to Woodfield Mall for geocaching, so I bring you there for geocaching too.


The cache is NOT at the posted coordinates but is somewhere within the Woodfield Mall grounds. You can start searching from anywhere! The Where-I-Go app will tell you the distance to the cache but not the direction, that is for you to figure out.

In order to find the cache, you need to install the Where-I-Go app or Where-We-Go app. Next, you need to download the cartridge which you'll run in said app.

The cartridge was created by -Waldmeister- and is available to download from the where-i-go website .

Once you download the cartridge, and then click START and you'll be prompted to select the cartridge, then select “New Game” and click START, select a language, select meters or yards, and then you’ll be asked for the three numbers. Here are the three numbers you need to enter:

600382

487303

457528

You can check your distance to the cache as many times as you wish, though once you get down to a few yards you may see a likely host and want to simply search. However, if you'd like to place your own Reverse Where-I-Go be sure to check your distance again when you do find this cache as you'll be awarded a password which will allow you to place your own Reverse Where-I-Go.

If you are new to hunting Where-I-Go caches, Be warned, the Where-I-Go app never got beyond a Beta version. It is buggy, and the interface is not terribly user friendly. But that said, once you figure it out, you can have a lot of fun hunting Where-I-Go caches.
