Geocache Description:

This is a Challenge cache. The cache is at the posted coords but you will need to meet the challenge before logging it.

The Challengeis to find a cache in 250 different counties across the US. You can find any style cache in any state. You will need a list of counties and a GC number for each county. This can be accomplished by creating a bookmark list or using a software program. There is a link on the Geocache web site for two free software programs that will keep track of your counties automatically. The links for the free software and helpful web sites are on the geocache home page under the resources tab. There is a new way to track your total counties for this challenge. You may now use www.mygeocachingprofile.com to compile your county stats. This site will also create a full US map of your counties This may also be used to qualify for this cache if you don't want to list every county.
Extra credit will be given for those who post a picture of their current county map. Although this is not required, it is fun to see where others have cached.

Congrats go to TinSparrow for the FTF - This is what his counties look like right now
