Geocache Description:


*This cache is at the posted coordinates.*

This is a challenge cache, which means that you can sign in at any time but you can only log a find online once you complete the challenge. For this challenge, you must find a cache in at least 50 of Canada's counties. The counties can be from any province or territory but only Canada's counties will count, American counties (or from any other country) will not be accepted. 

At the time this cache was submitted I had finds in 51 counties across Canada. I had 13 in New Brunswick, 6 in Nova Scotia, 2 in Prince Edward Island, 1 in Quebec, 3 in Ontario, 16 in Manitoba, 4 in Saskatchewan, 4 in Alberta and 2 in British Columbia.

The difficulty rating is for the challenge, the actual hide is a 2/5. 

Good luck, and have fun caching across Canada!

*note on the checker* For some reason, project gc only recognizes Newfoundland and Labrador as a single census division. Therefore, if you use the checker and are below 50, yet have found caches in several census divisions in Newfoundland and Labrador which put you above 50, simply provide me with some other form of proof of your completion of the challenge and you can go ahead and log the find.

 

Congratulations to KD_cachers for the FTF!
