Geocache Description:


Hoppin' on a plane?

 

Why not grab a travel bug for a ride,

and play your part in our local SuperBowl Travel Bug Race, 2020 Edition!

 

 

This cache, next to a helicopter pad, is the launch point for not just offshore helicopters, but also the launch point for this year's travel bug race.

In future years, we may use this cache for the same purpose again, or another nearby cache.

The cache is a modern ammo can, hidden in a winter friendly manner.  If you arrive at GZ and see heavy snow accumulations do not be daunted.  With the wind in the area, there is actually much less snow here than it looks, thanks to the breezes blowing it from the area.

The travel bugs entered into the 2020 race are:

2020 Signal Football - England Style, TB3TZG3, owned by 101dalmatian

Remember:  If you are a local geocacher and you are taking part in this race, you are not permitted to move your own bug nor a bug belonging to anyone else in the race.

Also:  If you do not plan on moving the travel bug soon or do not know how logging travel bugs work, please do not take a travel bug from the "Travel Bug Racers" bag in the cache.  Thanks in advance. :)

The 2020-2021 race will commence with the publication of this cache, and will end on 12:01AM local time, February 7, 2021, the date of SuperBowl LV.  On that date we will have an event to conclude this race, and then start up the third annual SuperBowl TB Race.  Let's keep this fun local geocaching tradition goin'!

Good luck to all participants this year!  May your bug not stall and instead travel far!

 

Cheers,

Cache the Bayman!
