Geocache Description:


Nebraska is a state on the Great Plains of the Midwestern United States. Its state capital is Lincoln. Its largest city is Omaha, which is on the Missouri River.

The state is crossed by many historic trails, but it was the California Gold Rush that first brought large numbers of non-indigenous settlers to the area. Nebraska became a state in 1867.

There are wide variations between winter and summer temperatures, and violent thunderstorms and tornadoes are common. The state is characterized by treeless prairie, ideal for cattle-grazing, and it is a major producer of beef, as well as pork, corn, and soybeans.

Ethnically, the largest group of Nebraskans are German American. The state also has the largest per capita population of Czech Americans among U.S. states.

I've placed a hundred or so caches in the shape of our fine state. Most of these will be P&G type grabs. Thank you to everyone that stops and visits.

The cache is at the posted coordinates. You need to qualify for the challenge before you can log the smiley.
The challenge is that you must find 93 caches each containing the full correctly spelled name of a Nebraska county. You have to find a cache for each county. A list of Nebraska counties can be found here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_counties_in_Nebraska.

Here is a macro for you to check.
