A Wherigo adventure on the old Santa Susana Stage Road.

About This Cartridge

The year is 1867 and you are travelling from Los Angeles to San Buenaventura.

In the northwest corner of the San Fernando valley, the stage route is a steep trail cut into the mountain that is known as the devil's slide. It takes a team of four horses to drag the stagecoach up the slide. Coming down the slide is even more dangerous. Passengers generally get out and walk along this section of the road.

You will follow the old stage route as you collect the clues that will help you find the Secret of Santa Susana Pass (GC1RDJH). 

Starting Location

Santa Susanna Pass State Historic Park - South Entrance

Interesting info about the Stagecoach Trail. Some things are not intuitive. We had to start it a few times and get a hint from the owner to complete. We know this trail very well now. Hence the difficulty can be upgraded to a 3 or 4. Thanks for taking the time to create a interesting WherIGo. We did have fun!

First of all, this was my first Wherigo game experience and I had a blast.

The location that this cartridge is played out in is very familiar to me and I must say that for myself and MamaMia (who played the game with me) and our Belgian Malinois Pepper, this was a whole new way of hiking the Devil's Slide and Santa Susana Pass!

It was a whole lotta fun and brought the historical aspects of this great pass to life!

Being the first cartridge I've ever played, I have no other to compare it to but I would have to venture a guess that it rates high... I give it 5 stars!
