Minnesota Challenge: 87
Counties
What is the County
Cache Challenge?
The goal of this cache is simple: To find a cache in
every county in Minnesota
The final cache coordinates can be obtained by successfully
finding or having hidden a cache in each of Minnesota's 87
counties.
In order to claim this cache, you must first send me a file
containing all of your qualifying hides and finds. (.GPX format is
preferred or .LOC if you filter out your locationless, event and
CITO caches ahead of time for me. At a minimum I need a list
containing cache name, waypoint, and coordinates.) I will review
the list in order to verify the caches. Once everything checks out,
I will then send you the correct coordinates for the final cache!
The find cannot be logged until the physical container is found and
the logbook inside signed.
Some guidelines need to be laid out:
- The posted coordinates are not the actual
coordinates for the cache. The cache may actually be several miles
from these coordinates!
- Generally accepted rules, guidelines and conditions for logging
a cache find apply. These must be bona fide caches listed on
Geocaching.com that you have personally (physically) found and
logged. You may include caches found or hidden prior to the
creation of the County Cache Challenge so long as they meet all
other Challenge requirements.
- Placement of a cache counts the same as finding a cache, but
only if it was placed prior to July 1, 2006. Hides placed by
the seeker after this date do not count toward the Challenge,
unless there are NO prior caches in the county. All
caches must meet the geocaching.com guidelines and be published. In
particular, the guideline regarding 'vacation caches' must be
followed."
- All cache types count as finds or hides for the County Cache
Challenge with the exception of events (CITO included) and
locationless caches.
- While you may have others with you when you find the final
cache, only those who have fulfilled ALL criteria for this cache
will be allowed to log it as a find. Find logs by other cachers
will be deleted.
- When in doubt ask - we can discuss it or even seek guidance
from others, but the final decision rests with the cache
owner.
- Remember that this is a game and is supposed to be fun!
The final cache is located in a city park in the metro area.
