Geocache Description:


This challenge was born out my desire to complete the challenge GC1NBVB - 17 which requires your mystery percentage to be at or above 17% as a requirement for logging. When I started I was at 15% and I realized that I would need to find a mystery every single day for about a month to get my numbers up. The other option would be to go finish some of the Geo-Art but since I was already on a streak this seemed like a great way to extend the streak. At the time of publication my percetage was 18.00433839479393%, maybe you too can use this as a launchpad to qualify for 17, if you haven't already!

So your challenge is this: find a mystery cache a day for 30 days.

The final is at the posted co-ordinates and is a fairly mundane P&G. The difficulty rating is based on what you might have to do to finish this one.

You can do this a couple of ways, solve the puzzle find the cache, or if you live near enough (or don't mind driving) tag one cache a day out of the nearest geo-art or you could go work through some of the other challenges in the state, there are at least 30 within 50 miles of Burlingon. The way is up to you, just enjoy the journey!
