Geocache Description:

The cache container for this challenge is located at the given coordinates.  It is a decon container and the difficulty/terrain rating for this cache is based on the challenge itself and not for the actual cache find itself.  The difficulty/terrain rating for the cache itself is more like a difficulty 1.5, terrain 2.

Now for the challenge:  There are many different challenges out there: daily streaks, number of caches in a day/month/year, fill this grid, fill that grid, find so many of a type, fill a map, etc.  This is of the fill a map variety.

The challenge is to find a Wherigo cache in 12 different states/provinces/countries. It can be any combination of states, provinces, and countries. For instance, you could have found a Wherigo cache in 8 U.S states, 2 Canadian provinces, and 2 European countries. Your choice. You can complete this challenges with as few as 12 Wherigo cache finds.

As we won't put out a challenge cache that we haven't previously qualified for ourselves, here are where we've found Wherigo caches. Hopefully we'll be able to add several more states to the list this year.

Alabama: 4 Wherigo caches
District of Columbia: 1 Wherigo cache
Florida: 8 Wherigo caches
Illinois: 3 Wherigo caches
Indiana: 9 Wherigo caches
Kentucky: 3 Wherigo caches

When we travel, Wherigo caches (along with virtual caches) are our favorite to visit, as they will often take you to somewhere interesting. We created this challenge to see who else shares our interest in finding Wherigo caches while out on the road.

Once Wherigo caches in the 12 different states/provinces/countries have been found and logged, you may find and log this cache. You may either prove you have met the challenge by posting your finds to a public bookmark, or you may list your finds in the body of your log on this cache. Either way, be sure to give the Wherigo name, waypoint, and date found.
