This is the first (ever?) Wherigo in Preston!

This is a Reverse Wherigo cache. The cartridge tells you the distance to the cache, but not the baring. You need a Wherigo-compatible GPS or one of the smartphone apps to play through the cartridge and find the cache. "The Reverse Cache" (created by Waldmeister) can be downloaded here.


Once you have downloaded the cartridge:

1. Select your language

2. Select your unit

3. Select "Play"

4. Visit the posted coordinates and answer these questions:

The town of Preston - 1A96

The mill, organized by - 1XXB

The gravel, two-lane - 19CD

The Preston Community - 19EF

5. Enter this code in the cartridge:

The cache is available 24/7 and is not near any homes. Please pull fully into the parking area.
