How Geocaching Works

Please note Use of geocaching.com services is subject to the terms and conditions in our disclaimer.

Geocache Description:



 
Berkshire County has 32 cities and towns within its borders.

The purpose of this challenge is to encourage visiting and geocaching in each of these
towns and meeting other cachers.

 
The cache is at the listed coordinates BUT BEFORE YOU LOG IT AS A FIND, you must complete a challenge!
 
Ground Rules:
  • Find and log 32 caches - one from each city or town in Berkshire County Massachusetts.
  • All active physical cache types (including Traditional, Multi, Mystery, Wherigo, Letterbox Hybrid and Event caches) count as finds for the Berkshire County Town Challenge.
  • Virtuals and Earthcaches will ALSO count, subject to verification that the owner of those caches has in fact accepted your log as a valid find (Earthcaches may also be used as a substitute).
  • For Multi and Mystery caches, the posted coordinates determine which town the cache counts for.  In other words, if the cache begins in one town and ends in another, the given starting coordinates are what count.
To verify completion:  A Bookmark or other verifiable list must be provided (either via public bookmark or posted in your log).  

OR THE PREFERRED METHOD
is to use the Massachusetts Towwn Challenge Calculator. Link to the calculator can be found at https://coord.info/GC48CR5

 
You are welcome to go to the actual physical cache and sign the log before getting all of the towns done but if you do, please just post a note online (as opposed to logging a find).  Then, after you have completed the challenge, you can come back and log your find online.
