Played this today as our 27th Wherigo and found the cache, although the cartridge didn't finish as it should. We played using 2 phones, iPhone 6 and Samsung J3, both of which failed at the last stage, failing to give an unlock code!

We set off and despite the phonebox not being there anymore we soon had our next destination appear.
We drove to the next stage. I was playing this on the Oregon and the iphone. the iphone woked much better as we knew straight away where the next zone was, the Oregon didn't show the next zone until we were really close.
The final location was a really beautiful spot

This Wherigo has been on our to-do list since it was published and we finally got the chance to play it today. The cartridge played fine, luckily from the comfort of our car as it was chucking it down with rain.

We’ve not done a whereigo before so we weren’t sure what to expect, we thought there might be more questions to answer and wondered at some points if we were missing some information, but no, as we progressed it became clear we were on the right track.
We are pleased that we could use our normal GPSr etc. and not have to purchase or borrow another. The device we used is an Android 'phone , HTC Desire HD, and an external 'Touch' bluetooth GPS which is very sensitive compared to the GPSr build into the 'phone.
We ran a free app. called 'WhereYouGo' from the Google Play Store. The key to a good GPSr is the maps, and we run an app. called Locus (there is a free version but the Pro version is only a few pounds) with its 'Vector Maps' also from the Play Store (via a menu on the Locus app.). The maps for the whole British Isles are about £1.00 !
We had a few teething problems and may need to adjust some of the many 'settings' in WhereYouGo but the app. performed as it should as we wandered from location to location.
This cache has inspired one of nine to investigate if we too can add another Wherigo cache in the Isle of Man…watch this space!

This is our first cache of this type and we enjoyed it very much. We weren't sure what to expect but it all went smoothly until we got to the cache area. The screen froze and there were muggles just in the way . However we ran it again and when we returned we quickly picked up the cache. We were using a Oregan 550T. TFTC
