Current Goal

I am the first car with pictures at the designated Civil War battlefileds! Now I need to race home to Alton, Illinois and be placed in Piasa Harbor Wildlife Lookout (GCRKCM) to win the race!!

About This Item

Chickamauga with Chrimic. Awesome!


I have the required pictures.

On to the Finish Line and victory!!

Now I need to return to the Finish Line at Piasa Harbor Wildlife Lookout (GCRKCM), Illinois! Piasa Harbor, IL

I have been photographed at these Civil War battlefields:
Antietam, Maryland; Gettysburg, Pennsylvania; Chickamauga, Georgia; Chattanooga, Tennessee.

I chose this racecar because my first car was also a 1975 Pinto. But back then, I couldn't afford a motor sticking out of my hood. Obviously, now I can. :)

My opponents are:

Discovered It 9/14/2023 MiriCach discovered it   Visit Log

"TL;DR: We don't have the trackable (and feel sorry for you if it means it is still missing), but stumbled upon its discovery code.

The story: I discovered this trackable/coin when I cracked the cache ""Msportis Coinlihaus der 2."" and then was able to reverse-engineer some Coins/TBs of the owner Msporti as well. By pure chance / luck while testing out possibilities for this I also came across this TB/coin. We hope that it's okay that we discover it, if not, feel free to delete this log. TFTC/TFTT ;-)"

[b][green]Well racing fans, I hate to do this, but I have to mark Hezekiah Pinto II as [red]MISSING[/red] and probably lost. 🤕 The last known location appears to have been muggled. I contacted each cacher that visited the site after it was placed and none had picked it up.

I guess there's a chance that whoever took the TB will experience the fun of geocaching and return our racer to another cache someday, but I don't know that I have that level of optimism.

I appreciate all who moved our racer for us, traveling more than 2800 miles, and making our racer the only one that visited all four Civil War Battlefields. 😁 My kids and I have had fun watching the race, learning about the battlefields, and most of all, enjoyed the camaraderie of geocachers uniting to move our car every step of the way.[/b][/green]

[b][blue]THANKS![/b][/blue]

Picked this bug up while trading out some other bugs we had on us. We will just move it to another cache in the Atlanta area and maybe someone heading in the correct direction will pick it up.

Discovered in Atlanta, GA. I'm not sure I could help on the quest, maybe the next cacher - good luck.
