COLOR ME SMPTE, A REVERSE WIG

So who doesnt love a reverse Wherigo?  I see you have your hand up, great. Well, ask and you shall receive! First off, THE CACHE IS NOT AT THE LISTED COORDINATES! Theres no need to go there.

As a quick refresher, if you are not familiar with a wherigo cache, you have to download a small program called a cartridge which is loaded into your wherigo app on your phone. In this cache, we are using Waldmeister's reverse wherigo box cartridge. You can search for that cartridge in your wherigo app if you dont already have it downloaded into your app. If not, you can find the cartridge at:

All reverse wherigos have three sets of 6 digit codes which identify the reverse wherigo cartridge you want to play within the reverse wherigo box cartridge. So what are the numbers, you ask?  Well I am not going to make that easy for you. Thats where the puzzle comes in. As for the puzzle, I have given a number of hints on this page. So with that, lets get down to the puzzle portion of this reverse wherigo.

THE FIRST SET OF NUMBERS ARE:

RED, GREY, GREEN, CYAN, RED, GREY (Check sum = 21)

THE SECOND SET OF NUMBERS ARE:

DARK BLUE, GREEN, GREY-GREY, GREY, BLUE, GREY-GREY (Check sum = 20)

THE THID SET OF NUMBERS ARE:

YELLOW, YELLOW, BLUE, RED, RED, YELLOW (Check sum = 25)

 

You now have all that you need to tap into the reverse wherigo cartridge and go for it. Be mindful of muggles! This location can be busy at times. Use your geo ride as cover since you can park pretty close to where the cache is located. Enjoy!

AND THE FTF GOES TO.......TERRIBLE TS!!!!
