Welcome to the Huaraz scavenger hunt!

Rules

​

Each team will be given a bill of 100 soles. 

​

Teams are to take the money and accomplish as many activities listed as possible; each item found or activity completed has a point value that will be tallied at the end of the hunt.

​

​The hunt ends at 1:00 pm at El Madero restaurant. Teams that arrive early will be docked 5 points for every minute that they are early. Teams that arrive late will be docked 10 points for every minute past 1:00 pm.

​

Photos are to be replicated as identically as possible. The angle of the photos matters. You are to take the photos from the same angle that they were taken from when putting this hunt together! 5 points extra for group photos at each location.

​

The Photos of different VW Beetles are all worth 5 points, and you can take as many as you want, as long as they are different vehicles. 

​

Every sol brought back as change is worth 5 points!
