Absolutely loved this Wherigo--everything worked perfectly with frequent saving. It was a little challenging but good exercise and fun to imagine things the way they were. Did not find anything to "unlock the cartridge" though. Maybe I overlooked it?

This one took me a while. I wasn't sure if I was going to find enough tickets to get everywhere. For some reason, the number of tickets I found/won didn't seem to match up to the number required for some things. For example, one ride claimed it needed 5 tickets. I finally won the sideshow, which gave me 6 tickets, but I still didn't have enough to go on that ride. I eventually found them all, though, and got everything completed.

4:30pm - This is my second wherigo, but the first one I've actually been able to unlock (I did my first one with whereyougo on my smart phone and wasn't able to unlock it from there). This was also a milestone cache find for me. Zoe the dog and I enjoyed exploring Antlers Park. I never knew about the old amusement park, even though I lived in Lakeville for 5 years when I first moved to Minnesota, and worked in Lakeville for 10. Hopefully people weren't too curious about our wandering back and forth trying to find or win tickets - at least the final cache is where nobody would get suspicious. TNLN, thanks for setting up this great wherigo!

I made the drive to do this Whereigo and was glad I did. Spstanley was testing his new iPhone App which was cool to see. The Amusement park must have been a real cool place in its hay day. I really enjoyed how you used technology to convey the history here. We were lucky we never ran out of tickets to any of the rides and I even had my palm looked at ;-) All stages came together nicely! Start to finish it only took us about 45 minutes. I would definately recommend this Whereigo to everyone. Loved the final riddle! Thanks for a fun Sunday morning!!!

This was a fun and memorable Wherigo. The best one we've done yet. I appreciate that its design is more involved than just leading you from point to point. You have to think a little bit to solve the multi-faceted puzzle. Very good, kudos! Took us a couple of hours before we got the hang of it. To someone thinking about attempting it, that sounds like a long time, but its a great park, plenty of muggles and families enjoying the outdoors and the beach. Great time. Didn't feel like a couple of hours, that's for sure. Thank you Bunganator for creating a well-thought out and creative Wherigo. If only they were all this good.

Our first WhereIGo experience. We had a blast. We tried one in Hudson WI, but it crashed 3/4 the way through. We'll be sure to go back to that one now that we completed this one. SL TFTC

My first Wherigo with my new Garmin Colorado. Very interesting about the past history and what a fantastic area this is beautiful beach and lake. The cache took me several hours to complete.
I learned all the rookie mistakes on this one. Batteries ran out and lost my data so I had to start over.
The lesson learned is that at multiple times back out and save current progress. I also hit the quit button once and had to start from where I had last saved. I am not sure why I had an arrow and feet indicator to some of the tasks and not others.
Be sure to have a phone a friend ready for the riddle as I can't believe anyone has solved it without some kind of help.
I left my Jack Squat micro at the final. The cache was too small for the regular coin I had planned to leave.
Thanks for the fun and a great Wherigo build.

Decided to head out and tackle this one at the behest of my 11 year old. He's been begging to do it for a while now.
I too couldn't get the map working on my Oregon 200. It was a little frustrating to try to find the different locations without it until we figured out how to use the information sign as an alternate.
I'm not sure if ticket locations were on the cartridge map or not, but that seemed to be an extra amount of wandering.
We ended up having to leave the area to go get some wifi to get the answer for the riddle to be able to have enough tickets for our last stop.
Other than those speed bumps, we enjoyed it. Thanks.

Thank you thank you thank you for putting this together!
This was my first cartridge that isn't "play anywhere". It was fun to wander around imagining what used to be.
There are a couple of things I'll mention that I assume are limitations of the Colorado GPS, not the module:
1) The map doesn't show up on my Colorado.
2) There were no beeps to announce a message. I had to stare at my Colorado the whole time while my friend made sure I didn't walk into anything!
I hope to make a module myself soon. Thanks for the inspiration!
