You may take your time between stages... and you just need to sign the logbook in the last stage. Edited April 22, 2018 by RuideAlmeida Quote Link to comment
+on4bam Posted April 22, 2018 Share Posted April 22, 2018 It's the same as a traditional BUT... the cache is not at the posted coordinates. You start at the posted coordinates and there you will have to find information to get to the cachecontainer or to another point where information has to be found..... Some multi's have just one such point others have 10, 15.... or as many as can be. Quote Link to comment

I spent a few weeks working on GC1HQ1W. And there was another one where the final was 20 miles away, and it was archived before I ever got around to visiting the final. 1 Quote Link to comment

Most of the logs indicate taking two or more days to complete the cache. Quote Link to comment

+susix1029 Posted May 21, 2018 Share Posted May 21, 2018 Hey there. I am very new to this and tried my first multi cache. I found the first one, I solved the riddle and entered the coordinates for the second placement, but it doesn´t show on my app like another cache. Is it so with multicaches, that you do not see the different stages on the map, but only the first one? I am working with my smart phone. Maybe I need an GPS device? Can anybody help me?

With the app, if you're simply changing coordinates in the field, this might help. Quote Link to comment

While reviewing the details of the multi in the app, scroll down to the section called Waypoints. There you can hit the plus sign by "My coordinates," and type in the new coordinates. It will then show your new stage on the map and lead you there. Quote Link to comment
+susix1029 Posted May 21, 2018 Share Posted May 21, 2018 Oh, thank you so much Team Christiansen and Cerberus. I didn't know this. Thanks for this quick response. Can't wait to see the next riddle..... Quote Link to comment
