Geocache Description:


Welcome to a Highway 50 Challenge

The cache IS at the posted coordinates. 

You can sign the log anytime, but to claim a find, you need to complete the following challenge:

 

 

Challenge Qualifications: 50 Finds of Caches with at least 50 Favorite Points each

 

When I first started caching, every little blue ribbon (now little green heart) I got give out to caching experiences I loved felt precious... and every little ribbon (heart) that someone else felt my own caches deserved felt even MORE priceless.  Even with hundreds of points awarded and hundreds of points received, that feeling hasn't changed.  And when I see a cache with a lot of faves, I just have to go give it a look, knowing it will be worth the adventure.  This challenge is hidden on Highway 50, because... well, 50!   To qualify for this challenge, you simply need to have found a minimum of 50 caches that each have been awarded at least 50 favorite points!  Any cache type counts, found anytime.  Whether you qualified years ago... or still have some work to do, I hope this challenge encourages us all to continue to seek out those caches others have found rewarding, and continue to award caches we love with Favorite Points so others know where to look!

At the time of publication, I qualified, having logged finds on 807 dinstinct caches with 50 or more Favorite Points.

You can verify your totals with the checker below!  This version of the checker counts based on find dates first, not total favorite points, so if you've got a different qualifying collection from a different challenge or checker feel free to show those instead.

Cache itself should be pretty simple to sort out.  Defintely gotta get this one while heading uphill.
