More great activities news for The Melbourne Event in November. Come to one that is of interest, come to them all, or just head out and find caches. It’s up to you, but all part of the event.

Geocaching with a smart phone is
easier than ever these days, and c:geo is a great app that can make it even easier, once you get your head around it. We will be running a great session to help you do just that.
Another in the series of posts on some of the activities we have planned for The Melbourne Event in November.

In the olden days, GPS’s didn’t exist, but still people managed to make their way from point A to point B (often passing through point C) without getting lost. These mysterious skills still exist and can be mastered. In fact for people who head into remote areas, we recommend you learn them for those odd times when the batteries go flat on your chosen device.
Did you know that the highest cache of North America was placed by … a girl … from Melbourne … and she will be at The Melbourne Event!
This is another free session and part of the activities. Anna Bolmat who successfully climbed the 6194m high Mt Denali in 2013 will talk you through the experience of mountaineering. She has also climbed peaks in India, Nepal and recently together with her partner a couple of 4000m summits in Europe. Just lean back, hold on to your hot cup of tea and enjoy this virtual journey into the magical world of snow, glaciers and mountains.

Having trouble getting a cache published? 
Getting frustrated with this invisible being: the ‘Reviewer’? Why not come a long and meet them in person? Have a chat. Hear their side of the story. These things are always easier in person 🙂 We will have a panel of Reviewers on both days who will be happy to field constructive questions.
I bet you didn’t know we had so much planned for The Melbourne Event in November did you?
You can attend all or none of our planned activities, none are compulsory and attendance at the activities is not required to claim a find on the event.

To most of us, Wherigos are black box of fun (and sometimes frustration) but luckily we have been able to secure the services 
of an experienced Wherigo writer to help you make your own. This will be a hands on session where you will need a laptop, with the Urwigo platform installed. There will even be time to make a cartridge and head out into Casey Fields to test it.
