Back Road Adventures
The geocaches in this geo-art have been hidden on the dirt roads. Most of the caches in this series will be magnetic Brown Buggers in signs. This will keep them easy to find in any weather condition. There will also be a few caches placed in or on Guard Rails, these containers will be sports drink bottles with the log in a 15 ml centrifuge tube to keep it dry.
You may want to bring a pair of tweezers to remove the log from the container. The log will be rolled up on a stainless steel rod to help keep the paper from getting wrinkled and ruined. If you roll the log back up on the rod tightly it will fit in the container with no problem. Please dont try and force the log back into the container. Remember that other cachers will be finding thsese caches after you are done with them.
It is always a challenge to keep these geo-art caches in good shape. I will be willing to provide replacement containers to groups of Cachers planning on doing many of these in one day. I would like to keep all the containers thee same as the originals. Please don’t replace containers with pill bottles. Just contact me before you plan on finding the caches using geocaching messenger and I will try to get you replacements containers. I will really appreciate any help keeping these caches in tip top condition.
If you plan on giving favorites to these caches, please just give the favorite point to the first cache in the series. https://coord.info/GCB27MJ
Finding these caches in a group is always a fun time. Please have fun finding these caches and as always stay safe!
The cartridge was created by -Waldmeister- and is available to download from the wherigo.com website.
-Waldmeister-'s "The first Reverse Cache [WIG]" is the original cache in this family.
The basic idea is to find the final while being given only your distance to it. To get the current distance, you can ask the Reverse Cache Box in your inventory, but it won't tell you the direction - that's for you to figure out! There's no limit to how many times you can ask, but try to keep your number of guesses as low as possible. Theoretically, you should only need 3 queries to triangulate on the cache, but in practice you'll probably need more. All instructions and necessary information needed to complete the cartridge are provided in the cartridge itself, which is multilingual.
The Reverse Wherigo is a generic cartridge that works on many such caches worldwide. To identify the Xenia version, you must type this code into your player when asked:
104335
285923
802162
You should probably keep this code handy, as you'll need it if you have to restart for any reason.
Once you zero in on a spot close to the final, you can try to find it yourself without any more queries. If you make a query within a very short distance, you'll receive the actual coordinates and can follow your GPS from there. Otherwise, you probably won't need your GPS receiver at all when playing this wherigo. After you make the find, feel free to post the stats (number of queries, etc.) from your search as part of your log. There's no "completion code" for this cartridge.
