Geocache Description:

Congratulations to ZSteve for "FTF" honors!

We have slowly been working on caching in all of the counties in Oregon so that we qualify for the COUNTING COUNTIES IN OREGON (GCR9XY) cache . To that end, when I’ve updated my GSAK statistics, I’ve also run a macro that updates the country, state and county information. This means that all of the caches in the states we’ve cached in, have the counties listed. In reviewing the challenges in Oregon, we discovered several others had already done this but they were a long way from home. So, we decided to do a similar one here in the valley.

To qualify for this cache, you must: 1. Have found and logged caches in at least 100 counties across the United States. 2. Show these counties in some fashion.

If you use the current version of GSAK, you can generate a U.S. Map showing all the counties you have cached in. Include this as part of the statistics shown on your profile page. I’m sure there are also other means of showing this.

You can find the other Oregon challenges like this one at GC2KB7C and GC34QNB.

We have tried to be consistent with the cache container as well as the cache location on all of our DJBACH CHALLENGE caches. Once you’ve found one, the rest should be easy. The hard part is qualifying to log the cache.



BRING TWEEZERS. PLEASE DON’T REMOVE THE INSERT. Each of these bison tubes contains an insert with the log inside. This is to insure that the log remains dry. When the insert is taken and the log is placed directly into the bison tube, it gets wet and can’t be signed.
