Jaxartosaurus was a genus of hadrosaurid dinosaur that lived in what is now Kazakhstan during the Late Cretaceous period, about 85 to 70 million years ago. It was named after the Jaxartes River, which flows through the region where the first fossils of the dinosaur were discovered. The skull in Jaxartosaurus is relatively large and robust, with a wide, flat snout and a tall crest on the back of the head. This crest may have served as a resonating chamber, allowing the dinosaur to produce loud calls or honks to communicate with other members of its species.
Jaxartosaurus was a relatively large dinosaur, estimated to have been about 8 m (26 ft) long and weighing around 2,500 kg (5,500 lbs). It had a flat, duck-like beak and hundreds of closely spaced teeth that it used to grind up tough plant material. Like other hadrosaurids, Jaxartosaurus was a quadrupedal herbivore that likely lived in herds and had a complex social structure.

The cache is not at the posted coordinates, but you may begin your search from any point in the world!
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 Whereigo compatible GPS to navigate to the cache.
A tutorial on Reverse Wherigo caches can be found here: Reverse Wherigo Tutorial.
This cartridge is available to download from the wherigo.com website.
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:
638355
353518
168071
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.
When you have reached the final, you will be given some statistics on your quest. If you wish, you may enter the details into your log, and also post the number of times you calculated the distance.
At the end of the game, you will be given a personal pass-code which you can enter into the cartridge if you select "create" rather than "play" when you start the cartridge. Save this code, and if you ever wish to create your own reverse cache, you can do so.
