Did this wherigo during a busy road race day in Portland. Great tour, though we had trouble with a couple of the answers. A few things must have changed since this was created. For example, the color is now different in the first step, but all in all we had fun. Thanks!

A very nice tour of the Portland Freedom trail! Had no issues with part A except a wrong answer which really is nearer to the real answer, but I was able to correct & move to part B. Part B was flying along but ran into a problem when I re-entered a zone of a previous answer to get to another one. Well that really messed stuff up & when I got to the end it said I needed to visit & re-answer two parts again. Took a beer lunch break at grittys then went back, making sure I missed all the areas I had so it wouldn't happen again. Good thing I was using both the iPhone wherigo app along with the Oregon one, as for some reason it wouldn't move past on the Oregon. However on the iPhone one I revisited re-entered the answers it gave me the final coords! Made quick find. A great wherigo, even with the two tricky spots & questionable answers for some. Make sure you never re-enter a previous area!!!

This was the first Wherigo I've done. Did it with my Brother-in-law on a nice sunny saturday afternoon. Took us for a nice walk around Portland. Thank you for the cache! It has given me some ideas for creating one at home in Syracuse.
