This Wherigo will guide you 13 miles down Wet Beaver Creek. There are multiple dry waterfalls to navigate and around 21 pools to swim.

About This Cartridge

This is not a simple wherigo! I suggest planning 2, if not 3, days to complete it if you hike it in one direction (car at top and bottom). I have hiked the entire length starting, and finishing at the bottom, but I do not recommend this. It's about 24 miles and takes about 12 hours. You will need shoes that can get wet, dry bags for your gear, a camera, water purifier, any camping gear if you plan to stay the night and a telescoping fishing pole would be A LOT OF FUN. You may not want to attempt this wherigo if you have never canyoneered before, though this is a great place for your first canyoneering experience. Please email me if you have any questions.

Feel free to play this on the emulator first so you can have an idea of where you will be going.

I suggest saving the cartridge after completing each task-wherigos seem to be finicky. It would be a bummer to have this crash halfway through your adventure. 

Starting Location

You will need to check out maps to find the rough road to get to the starting location. I have placed a cache nearby called John Smith's Place (GC2CEKQ) so just figure out how to get there.
