The team of CrazyMonkey1854, LCS13, and MeToo1865 had fun with this cache. It did take extra time to play on the equipment as we moved to each new zone. The zones triggered just fine. And we had fun reviewing our knowledge of the history of Geocaching.

Very nicely done, T. But I've come to expect nothing less.
This WIG ran flawlessly on my Garmin Oregon.

We enjoy hawkeyetob caches as they are interesting, take you to some neat places, are fun quality hides and this Wherigo was no exception! We actually stopped here last night but quickly realized that we messed up downloading the cartridge and would have to revisit that download process. It has been awhile since we did one.
We got the cartridge loaded correctly and made a return visit this morning. My wife's B-day this week and a walk in the rain here doing what we love to do together seemed a bit romantic-well she smiled anyway!
O.K. a Fun and interesting Wherigo here. We enjoyed the Geocaching history lesson and knew some of the answers. My wife actually made better choices than I (yeah whats new) but happily you cannot fail and have to start over.
The cartridge ran flawlessly and kicked in at each spot right away without you needing to wander around looking for the "Happy Spot" like so many do. The trip here is short, easy and fun. We have done a few these that end up being just too darn long.
We were delighted to pick up the FTF geocoin at 10:00am. Wow, that is perhaps the most beautiful coin we have seen and it won't be going wild to disappear like so many of the nice ones have!! TFTC, the gift and as always the Fun!!
