A walk in the park entertwined with the story of the Plymouth/Chrysler Prowler. I recommend that you save your game often. Completion of this Wherigo allows you to log geocache GC23DVN.

About This Cartridge

The Prowler is one of my favorite cars (the other being the Dodge Viper). With this Wherigo cartridge, the zones relate to the colors the Prowler was produced in, and give highlights of each year of the Prowler's history. I will share the story from Concept to Production to the end of the Plymouth (and Chrysler) Prowler. I hope you enjoy this walk in the park today. I recommend that you save your game often. Completion of this Wherigo allows you to log geocache GC23DVN.  

Starting Location

The starting coordinates are for a place to park during your playing of this Wherigo cartridge at the Georgetown Community Park.

Frustrating when the batteries die 2/3's of the way through and you have to do an 1 1/2 laps. Thankfully mini cacher remembered he had his scooter in the trunk. Put the GPS on him and let him go for a ride. Too bad it wasn't a Prowler, but it did say HOT WHEELS and was Cherry Red. SL. TFTC and a cool whereigo. I personally liked the Gold Prowler myself.

Thanks to a couple great friends we were able to borrow an Oregon 550 to complete some Wherigo caches that were on our to-do list.

Having previously completed one other prowlin4snakeeyes cache I had an idea of what to expect. I was not wrong. I enjoyed my little lesson about the Prowler and also the tour of the park. Had a nice quick chat with some gentleman fishing as they wondered just what I was doing with all my starting and stopping they said. I gave them a short but sweet answer as I could tell they really didn't want to learn about caching and continued on my way.

Not a single problem with the cartridge and a quick find on the final allowed me just enough time to go ahead and play a game of WHERI(bin)GO.

Thanks for the wherigo!

The Mrs. U and I liked this one a lot. She was working on prototype vehicles for Chrysler at the time and I was a lowly engineer working at the tech center so this one was something of a reminiscing experience...and a walk.

I was one of many out on a group trial of the new updated version of this cartridge. Things went very well, and all of us got to burn off all the food we ate at the Chili Cook-off.
I learned alot about the Prowler. This was one of my favorite cars when it came out back in the late 1990's. (Loved that Hot Rod styling)
Now-a-days I would have to vote for the new style of the Chevy Camaro.
Thanks Lee, for all your efforts in putting this together. I look forward to completing more of your Wherigo's.
