A Way Point is a stop on route during a Hitchhiker Mission or a Walk-and-Talk. It is not always required. Some missions have none. Others have several. A Way Point gives the journey shape by creating a moment to pause, notice, and respond before continuing onward. A Way Point often involves stopping to look at something together. This might be a building, a doorway, a view, a piece of street life, a sign, a threshold, or some other feature of the place. The group then discusses it in relation to the mission. The point is not only to arrive somewhere, but to let the location itself become part of the conversation. Sometimes a Way Point also asks the group to do something. They may record a short summary, take a photograph, answer a prompt, or play a small game. In some missions the Way Point is where the group leaves a trace. In others it is simply a place to slow down and notice what the route is trying to say. A good Way Point is simple, memorable, and easy to recognise. It helps turn a walk into a sequence of shared moments rather than one continuous blur. This is why Way Points are useful in both live events and asynchronous missions. They make the route easier to follow, the conversation easier to frame, and the experience easier to remember.
