Pathfinder33's Wherigo Caches


Pathfinder33

Recommended Posts

Due to some variations in reviewers and their implementing of Groundspeaks Commercial Guidelines I was advised to start a thread on the forums that I could link to, so that my cache descriptions do not violate any rules in place. This will serve as a location for cachers hunting my caches to have a resource for information pertaining to my caches. There is no need to reply to this post unless you are the moderator or a cacher who has completed one of my Wherigo caches.

 

All of my Wherigo caches are tested by me prior to publication. I test them with everything I have available, which is usually my iPhone as well as 2 different Garmin Oregon models (300 and 450T). I am working on finding an android app that works well enough to field test prior to publication. (admittedly I am not an android user or a fan) All of my caches will be listed out below to show how they were field tested prior to publication. A link on each of my Wherigo cache pages will link to here. As I publish more Wherigos this initial post will get longer. Please search for the name and GC code (in blue below) for the geocache of mine you are hunting.

 

Garmin GPS receivers that can play the Wherigo cartridges include the Garmin Colorado, the Garmin Oregon, the Garmin Nuvi 500/550

Additionally, Wherigo can also be played on an iPhone, iPad, or iPod Touch using the APPLE APP or on an Android phone with the WherYouGo app. A player is being developed for the Windows Phone, but is open for beta testing by invite only, I believe.

 

 

The Fox, The Chicken, and The Grain: GC5JQC0 The Cache Page

This cartridge has been field tested on the iPhone 4S (iOS 8.1.2) using the Wherigo app, and on Garmin Oregon 300 and 450T models using the built-in Wherigo player. The Wherigo ran perfectly on the two garmins, it was a bit finicky on the iPhone. I attribute that to the proximity to the large metal bridge that had the accuracy on my phone jumping between 16 and 98 feet. Once I was on one side of the bridge or the other I stood still and it settled right into place.I was able to get compleation codes on both Garmins and my iPhone. This cartridge has not been tested on the Garmin Colorado, Nuvi 500/550, Android, or windows phones prior to publication.
