Geocache Description:


Brachiosaurus, whose name means “Arm Lizard,” was a giant sauropod dinosaur that lived during the Late Jurassic period, around 154 to 153 million years ago. It was a herbivorous dinosaur that lived in what is now North America, and was one of the largest dinosaurs ever discovered, with an estimated length of up to 25 m (82 ft) and a weight of up to 72,500 kg (160,000 lbs).

One of the most distinctive features of Brachiosaurus was its long neck, which was proportionally longer than any other dinosaur. This long neck allowed Brachiosaurus to reach 15 m (50 ft) in the air to feed on the leaves of tall vegetation.  Another unique characteristic of Brachiosaurus was its posture. Unlike other sauropods, which had a horizontal posture, Brachiosaurus held its neck vertically, which gave it a more upright stance.

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:


713328
788353
165005


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.

--------------------

This cache is located in the Mojave Desert, where temperatures can be extreme and traveling can be dangerous.  You will want a high-clearance vehicle with four-wheel drive.  Before heading out, please let someone know where you are going, and pack extra food and water in your vehicle.
