Hunt Outside

Instructions

Below is a map for this outdoor scavenger hunt that takes place at Mission Creek Regional Park (by Springfield Road and Leckie Road). Right now, the map has 3 puzzles for you to solve. Take a good look at the map and try to figure out where you need to go.

If you want GPS directions, you can click on the each of the puzzles to get a hint. There is a link to an interactive GPS map that will show you how far away you are from the hidden puzzle. GPS will only bring you so close. So once you are at the indicated GPS location, use the hint to figure out where the puzzle is hidden.

Once you think you are close, look for a little QR code hanging around. Once you find the hanging tag, scan the QR code on the back with the camera or an app on your phone, and it will lead you to the puzzle page. Go to the puzzle and complete the challenge!

When you've found all the QR codes and finished all of the puzzles, scroll to the bottom of the page and click "I'm all done!".

Good luck!
