Geocache Description:

Geocaching Bingo at its finest!

Remember Bingo? To win a Four Corners Bingo you need to cover the four corners and the center was a free space. Not so in Bingo Caching Challenge .

To claim a find you must find a Minnesota cache within 20 miles of the four corners of MN and the geographic center of MN. Once you've found five caches, you can submit your smiley face.

In your log post the dates the fives Bingo caches were found or attach your bookmark listing.

Prior finds do count. Cache owner reserves the right to log a find should he complete the challenge.

For the purists out there, the actual caches at the four corners and geographic center of MN, as of 2016, are:

Northwest Corner - Red River Puzzle GC1XPX8
Northeast Corner - Grand Portage State Park Call of the Wildflowers (GC5NY0X)
Southwest Corner - Tri State Marker GC8809 (Geocaching.com shows as a SD cache - it qualifies for this one)
or BLT #42 (GC53JT5)
Southeast Corner - Cornered MN style GC220FC
Geographic Center - Brainerd area welcome center GCYQXQ

Note - State Park caches require a day or season pass.

A final cache container has been hidden at the the posted coordinates.

Difficulty rating only because of the distances needed to travel between locations.

Special thanks to vtwinspin for hiding a cache in SE corner at my request for this the corner challenge

Actual Cache is probably only a 1.5/1.5 rating
