Iguanodon was a large herbivorous dinosaur that lived during the Early Cretaceous period, around 130-125 million years ago. Its name means “iguana tooth,” due to the similarity between its teeth and those of modern-day iguanas. It was a large, bulky herbivore, measuring up to 9-11 m (30-36 ft) in length and weighed around 4,500 kg (10,000 lbs). Iguanodon was one of the first dinosaurs to be scientifically described, and it played a key role in the early understanding of dinosaur biology. It was a large, bipedal dinosaur, with a bulky body, long tail, and powerful hind legs. Its front limbs were shorter and had three-fingered hands that were capable of grasping and manipulating objects.
One of the most distinctive features of Iguanodon was its teeth, which were large, serrated, and shaped like a spoon. Unlike other dinosaurs, Iguanodon had teeth that were adapted for grinding tough vegetation, and it is believed to have been one of the first herbivorous dinosaurs to evolve such teeth. Iguanodon is known from many fossils, including numerous skeletons and footprints. Its fossils have been found in Europe, North America, and Asia, suggesting that it was a widespread dinosaur during its time. In addition to its distinctive teeth, Iguanodon is also known for its prominent thumb spikes. These spikes were likely used for defense against predators, and also helped the dinosaur grasp onto and manipulate vegetation.

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:
013300
689356
148145
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.
