There will be new caches placed for the event, at this time not sure how many. For those unfamiliar, the event runs from Saturday at 7 AM to Monday
Held over August Long weekend - GPX file and Map Can be picked up starting late Friday Night when I arrive. There is a change in format this year, as I'm gone most of July in Australia I have to work the event slightly different:
You can arrive at anytime to ground zero(remember there are tons of caches you likely don't have yet.. lol), I will be arriving Friday Night late and will start handing out GPX files at that time.

Caches will be of all types/sizes/terrain There are quite a few in the area I placed with my Honda Civic, and others that a 4x4 are needed for.
