coachstahly: I was going to disable this but someone nabbed the final. I could put a replacement out but I think the final area is about to disappear, based on what I saw at the final location.

Geocache Description:

This Wherigo, placed in the city of Carmel, will take you on a trip through the Arts and Design District (and slightly outside as well), allowing you to enjoy the public art as well as the area in which it resides. The special tool attribute refers exclusively to a GPSr capable of playing a Wherigo cartridge or a smart phone application that can play a Wherigo cartridge. This cache is only available from dawn to dusk so NO NIGHT CACHING please. SAVE OFTEN!!!!

This cartridge will take you on a walk around the city of Carmel, a northern suburb of Indianapolis, in order to see some of the city-installed art that resides in the Arts and Design District. Carmel is connected to one of the area's most utilized greenway trail systems, the Monon Trail and you will find yourself on portions of it during the playing of this cartridge.

Depending upon your method of transportation from stage to stage, this Wherigo will take you anywhere from 30 minutes to an hour and a half to complete. You will be given some information about each piece of art you visit and then you will be asked a question related to each piece of art you see. Each question has a definitive answer but might involve some time on your part in order to come up with the right answer.

The starting coordinates are in the middle of one of Carmel's multitude of roundabouts so please use the included parking coordinates to begin your journey.

During the testing of this cartridge, there were THREE zones that took a bit of time to "enter" due to being in a relatively enclosed area (similar to a canyon). Be patient and they will eventually trigger the information needed to move onto the next stage. Please save your progress. If the cartridge crashes and you don't save, you have to start over at the beginning again.


The final stage will take you close to the actual cache and upon answering the last question correctly, it will give you the coordinates needed to sign the log. It will also ensure that you approach the cache from the public access instead of through private property. The terrain rating is for the container where the log is located. Finally, depending upon the season, you might find that you'll need to cross some standing water. BYOP just to be safe.

This cartridge can be downloaded via the "Related Web Page" link on this page just above the posted coordinates.
