Saturday, May 22nd 2004 in Fallon - the Oasis of Nevada
Join us for an off-road rally that covers 150 miles of beautiful high desert landscape.
THANK YOU TO ALL PARTICIPANTS AND VOLUNTEERS!!
I want to thank everyone who joined us out in the desert Saturday to make this event a great success. I will be posting the pictures that I took along the course, at checkpoints 1 and 2, and the finish line soon. Just need to download my over-worked camera.
Monty and I have finished scoring the entries and here are the results. Please know that regardless of how you placed, to the entire GBES Navigational Rally Committee, you are all winners and we are thankful that you chose to come from near and (very) far to compete.
Click on a Team Name to see the finish line photo - if I screwed up, please let me know and I'll straighten out the pictures.

Regarding "Finding" this cache (as many have already done). Both participants and volunteers are permitted to log:
1 Event Cache Find (duh - you were here!)
4 Checkpoint Challenge Caches (only *if* you found them and regardless of how long it took)
5 Route Caches (*if* you found them)
1 BBQ/Meeting Event (*if* you were able to make it at all)
11 total caches for the day (I will be checking logged finds)
Don't forget, log whatever bugs you traded (that "Bug Journal" Fossillady and Abe were passing around does count).
Thanks again to everyone who made it to the Event. We look forward to seeing you again next year!!

Greetings geocachers!
Have you ever been on a cache hunt and seen some dirt road snaking off into the horizon and wondered where it led? Or decided not to take the road less traveled, then half regretted your choice?
Now's your chance to explore a few of those roads, as we take the thrill of geocaching and combine it with the adventure of discovery in our GBES Navigational Rally. With Nevada as our playground, we're going to test the skills of participants by pitting drivers against a mazelike course that winds through the deserts and mountains around Fallon, and finding Cache Challenges along the route that will sharpen the hunting skills of navigators. Teams must work together to make it through the course safely and successfully. Don't worry though, we don't want anyone getting lost, so drivers and navigators will have a series of Checkpoints to keep them on track, getting to those Checkpoints, however, will be entirely up to you.
Check back here often to stay current on the latest details.

Thank you and CACHE ON!
