This was my main objective for today's adventure. I am working on the Washington Fizzy and this WhereIGo is one of a very few that are old enough to meet the age requirement.
Not a Sunday, but access was allowed. Met a couple of others at the parking area and on the island. Nice tour of the island. The first sign is not there, but I made a good guess to move on. The second sign is there although it might be hard for some to read. Didn't let Signal rest, maybe that is why he wouldn't give up the unlock code when I found the cache - it's in my inventory but shows nothing. Found the cache and replacement log.
Overall this is one of the better WhereIGos that I have done. It was a very enjoyable time on the island. Thank you for bringing me here. Only thing keeping me from giving it 5 stars is not getting the unlock code.

We were in town from Spokane Valley for LilSisK4$'s soccer tourney in Marysville this weekend, and I couldn't pass up the opportunity to grab a few Wherigos. Not being familiar with the area, the GPSr (Oregon 550) landed me at the nearest parking about .02 mile from GZ (past the gate that states "No Parking beyond this point") at 6:30am, and I was off. It certainly doesn't smell friendly out here so I wouldn't plan on packing a picnic. Waypoint 2 kicked me out a half dozen times which required me to restart and restart to no avail. Finally, I walked west about 50 feet to a less covered location, and it fired back up. Waypoint 3 had me about a foot deep in the slough for about 10' so I could access it. I must have arrived at high tide.?. I suggest coming at lower tide or bring binoculars to spot the answer from the trail. The rest of the journey (the better part of 2 miles round trip and 7 waypoints total) was without issue. Nicely put together Wherigo! Thanks!!!

I have been trying to find time and weather to play this cartridge. This is the first Whereigo that I've tried. I really enjoyed it. While doing the cartridge, I also grabbed a few caches on Spencer Island. I was tired after all the caching today. Must have walked a few hundred miles (just kidding about the miles). Thanks rambudo for you efforts building this cartridge.

The tide was low but the growth on the trail was high. I had to calm Wifey down and assure her that because I was in the lead the critters and snakes would have scurried away before she passed thru the dense growth. I had to call on Signal a few times during the tour from my Oregon 450 but the 300 model was stable. We found the cache in the second place we looked. This was my first "tour/safari(lol)" wherigo. Thanks for the effort you put into this, especially the recovery mode.

Due to construction in the area, access to this cache will be heavily restricted for the next few months.
Access to the area will only be available on Sunday, if it is available at all.

My original plan was to have the Ape Cache as my 500th but it was archived right before my goal. NOOOO!!!!
So instead I decided to do my first Wherigo! Pretty well done I must say. Sadly, I came at the wrong time and the Waypoint 2 boardwalk was actually under water at the time I was there. I was a bit desperate to get this cache so I braved the water and ended up swamping my left shoe in the process. Yeah... that wasn't too fun. Made the rest of the waypoints however and soon had the final cache in hand! My first Wherigo Cartridge and 500th geocache! Yahoo!
On the way back I got salt rubbed in my shoe wound as the tide had gone out and the boardwalk was completely dry. Oh well, it was worth it. Great job! Thanks for the Wherigo!
