This area would have been a great addition to Jim Reeb's Douglas County Historical Series.
Virtuals are no longer allowed, so instead, you get a virtual tour with this Wherigo.

This is a walking adventure, not a park and grab. It is about 1.25 miles round trip with a whopping 50 foot elevation change. You start at Preservation Park, and will be walking to 17 Mile House Farm Park. Parks are closed at night. I believe this Wherigo will take you about an hour to complete (or more if you enjoy the surroundings).

Your walking tour starts at the posted coordinates:
Open the Wherigo cartridge, and take the tour to the final.
Don't forget to turn your sound on (it works without it as well).
Download cartridge HERE!

Play on Wherigo-enabled GPSr devices, or on your smart phone.
This Wherigo has been tested on both, and is optimized for mobile.
Please let me know if images don't load properly on a GPSr device.

I did the cartridge some time ago (10/27/2018), bit forgot to log it.
At that time, the train car was still around, only the sign was missing. So sad they removed it Frown

My very first where are you go! Didn’t have any troubles for the most part. There was some construction at the farm house but the nice workers let me buy so I could get the needed stuff. The final was incredibly hard to open but with some special skill I managed it. Signed log. Thanks so much for putting the time in for this where I go. It’s an awesome example of how fun these can be

Yes, indeed, this would have made a good Jim Reeb virtual! It was a chilly morning for a walk, but it was interesting exploring the historical sites and learning about the area. It took gorilla strength to open the container after getting it unlocked, but it finally popped open to reveal all kinds of swag. Signed log and replaced everything. Thanks for all of the effort it took to create this neat Wherigo! Earns a fav!

That was fun. Nicely done. Signed log.

Thanks animjason for giving me a reason to get outside. It’s always worth it when you are enjoying nature. There is nothing better than acting like a kid again, digging through weeds and climbing trees, all to sign my name on a piece of paper.

Found with Cachly for IOS.

Met up with jasperdakota for some puzzle adventures. One false start on another, then came to do this one. Hot sun but got to go inside the house and cool off, and check out the history. Ammo can took some "encouraging" on a fencepost and was still about as hard as I could pull. Beaux coup trackables. Nest finder please put pencils back inside container, I didn't want to have to open it again. sl thanks!

Found with Robespierre50 on this hot, hot day. Thanks for the fun wherigo. As a bonus they were holding their monthly open house and we got to go inside and see all the cool antiques. Picked up a couple of TB's. Container was hard to open, needs some WD40.

Wherigo well done and worked perfectly. I've been through 17 mile before and looked at some of the buildings but this made me read about each one. Final pretty easy find. Give it a fav! TFTC!
