Tri-Cities 2015 Geocoin Challenge
Hidden Treasures of the Mid-Columbia
- Travel around Tri-Cities (including West Richland) to find 28 of the 32 geocaches and 1 of the 4 multi or puzzle caches to earn a geocoin map with four trackable “X marks the spot” magnetic puzzle pieces.
- All the caches have code words or paper punches. You will need a total of 7 in any combination for each city, plus 1 multi/mystery of your choice (multi/mystery caches are shaded) for a total of 29 cache finds.
- Upon successful completion of the challenge, one X per city and one base map will be awarded per household (which will give you one complete set).
- Kids (12 and under) who complete the challenge the weekend of the event will receive a prize.
- You must also have a geocache account to receive your geocoin.
