An interesting walk around some of the historic sites in the city centre, and not too long. The phone reception was reasonably good and each gz was close enough to the actual feature to find the answer without too much trouble

I completed this WiG alone using a powered wheelchair - for me, it was perfectly accessible, which I really appreciate.

I enjoyed the theme of the lost Geocoins, and the “walk” around the city centre.

The cartridge got a bit sticky at one point, but a quick reboot sorted that out.

I did most of the cartridge at first attempt, but my phone was running out of juice, so I saved the cartridge and used what was left in the phone to navigate back to the area my hotel was in. I found the last coin with instructions on how to get to the GZ a couple of days later.

This probably took me longer than most but I enjoyed the cartridge and lack of hassles along the way, very much.

Thank you for all your hard work putting this together, your efforts are appreciated 👍🐝

Straightforward walk. Found the GPS accuracy with my iphone a bit of a problem, as final location seemed to stay 200-300ft away when I was walking around several blocks. Thanks anyway.

I enjoyed playing this Wherigo despite my counting skills not always being up to scratch! No issue finding the cache, went straight to it without needing the hint.
