Not even going to go into a long drawn out speech about what this is and how it came to be, just gonna spell it out, plain & simple. You are going to have to visit 6 (SIX) different states AND Find 6 (SIX) different cache types ALL IN 1 (ONE) CALENDAR DAY, PERIOD. PREVIOUS FINDS DO NOT COUNT and all cache types that are available on Geocaching.com are included. This challenge final DOES NOT COUNT as one of the finds. Simple as that, 6 states, 6 different icons, 6 smileys. As of 9-2-13, all Canadian provinces count as a "state". Interesting international twist. Thanks geedunk.
