Last year I did a puzzle cache to
honor the “Young Guns” for 2009. These were cachers
that had started in 2009 and had the most finds. We had another
great freshman class in the State of Minnesota in 2010, but this
year I decided to change it up a little. This year I am honoring
all cachers in the State that had more than 1,000 finds.
By my very UNOFFICIAL and NOT
guaranteed to be accurate math there were 60 Minnesota cachers that
had more than 1,000 finds in 2010. This compares to 41 cachers who
had more than 1,000 finds in Minnesota in 2009 and shows that
caching is on the rise in our State. Not surprisingly 28 cachers
were on the list both years, but 32 new cachers archived the
milestone of finding more than 1,000 caches in a year. Here than is
a list of your TOP GUNS for 2010:
