I'm impressed with the amount of work that went into this one! We were a little stumped at first but then everything came together. TFTC!

Headed north with animjason, and Bhob today targeting non-traditional geocaches. This was one of them.
Great container.
Thanks Dud&Plato! Logged EOTS from a ninth galaxy using c:geo!

Caching north today with BearAdair, and Bhob. I am always targeting Wherigos, and even have a BM list of all active Colorado ones (I think it's up to date).
I was surprised to find this container type, and happy. Thanks for the cool final, and location. That was fun.

Out grabbing a few caches with blackfire5th. I have mixed feelings about this one. At times, as advertised, the cartridge was rather frustrating. We went with Agent Smith and once we figured out that walking was not the way to zero in on this one it went pretty well. We did appreciate the clever symbolism of the storms. Thanks for all the effort to put this cache together!

It took us on and off all day, but the coot finally helped us out! We enjoyed the storms! TFTC!

Checked on this one today. Seems some muggles decided to liberate some swag but the cache and log remain exactly where it should be in fine shape. Will keep a closer eye on this one. Please report any issues and happy caching!

This morning my puppies Orizaba and Chimborazo and I embarked on a caching adventure that included this great wherigo; the superlative Park Place cache by icezevbra11; and the finals of the three recent puzzles created by Barasaur. I ended up signing all five caches, so it was a marvelous morning, indeed.
I had tried the cartridge soon after it was published but was somewhat stymied at the starting zone. I returned home and thought about things. Based on certain techniques built in to Dud&Plato's three wherigo caches associated with this year's annual Wingin it! event, I made some hunches and they turned out to be correct. I ran them by Tom at a recent event and he enthusiastically confirmed that I was thinking correctly, and he subsequently emailed me with strong encouragement. I really appreciate the creativity that goes into building wherigo cartridges, and Dud&Plato excels in this dimension. For me, building even simple ones has been quite an experience, so I have admiration for the CO and the ideas he incorporates into his cartridges. This one certainly entailed some neat twists, but I worked through them this morning showing delight at each small step toward getting to the cartridge's end. My puppies were a bit bored, particularly at the first zone where I spent too much time in their opinion.
The cartridge took me in some circles, but each turn and "Task" became a learning experience. Thanks for this. Of course it gets a Favorite point.

I love WIG caches and this one is less than 1/2 mile from home, so I decided to head out and grab it today. I ran into waawhoo at the seventh stage of how I was playing, he was playing a different way so we split up and then ended up at the final about the same time. This is a very fun and well done cartridge. Great location for the final as well. Thanks for the awesome Wherigo adventure!

I started this with the group of cachers the night of the geo dinner but I gave up after leaving Ground Zero with the group. I was just a little too cold. I happen to be in the area today so I came back out to see if I could finish this. going through a couple stages I ran into OKW doing it as well. so we split up again as we had different stages to go to. then we met up near Ground Zero once we got the final coordinates and found this guy. I end up doing the reversed where I go. Thanks for the hide!

I'm feeling a little nauseous from spinning in circles looking for this cache but I was successful so now I can relax and let my stomach settle
I saw the notification that this new WIG was published yesterday but didn't have a chance to go for it right away. Today my afternoon was free so after loading the cartridge into both my phone (Android) and Oregon 450T, the two pups and I got in the truck and headed for the posted coordinates. I found a nearby parking spot and they waited in the truck impatiently while I walked to the zone and commenced with the cartridge. Well that took some doing and the pups waited much longer than I thought they would have to. Once I was given the choice I went with the multi-cache option. At first I thought I'd try one of the methods on the phone and another on the Oregon but the Oregon acted up before getting through the first stage so rather than fiddle with it, I figured the pups had been waiting long enough and just went with the phone.
I got back to the truck and two very anxious pups and we headed for our next series of locations. Long story short, we drove to every one of the many locations necessary except for the final two stages. We parked a few hundred yards down the way from the penultimate stage and the pups were very happy to get to walk to it. Once we hit the final zone and received the final coordinates I plugged them into the Oregon and used it to navigate to the final cache location. It was a quick find once at GZ and I was happy to be the first to sign the log after the event group. So according to the CO's note, because I was the first to complete it without any assistance, I can share {FTF} with the test group. Thanks!
Though I haven't found a whole lot of WIGs, this was certainly the most complex of the ones I've done. And I've yet to attempt to create a WIG but I would think this one took at least an associates degree in programming to put it all together!
VERY WELL DONE Dud&Plato!!!

We were part of the test group that found this cache after quite a blustery and circuitous romp around the area. Amazing what imaginations members of our community are capable of. Well done Sir Tom.
Need to heed clues. No words are extraneous.
