Geocache Description:


Cache is at the posted coordinates.  This is a challenge cache, and as such, you need to meet the requirements of the cache before logging a find.  If you do not meet the requirements, you are welcome to sign the log and post a note stating that you have signed the log.  Once you complete the challenge, you can post a find to the cache.  Any logs that do not meet the requirements are subject to deletion. 

Use caution when approaching the cache, as this can be a high muggle area at all times of the day,

The challenge is to log at least one find in each county or independent city that Interstate 64 travels through within the Commonwealth of Virginia. This should be a total of 21 caches found before claiming this as a find.  All previous finds count, so if you have completed all the municipalities within Virginia, you have this challenge completed.  All caches except locationless and Adventure Lab stages count toward the completion of this cache.

 

As a reference, here is a list of the municipalities that you need to have claimed a find in:

 

Alleghany County
City of Covington
Rockbridge County
Augusta County
City of Waynesboro
Nelson County
Albemarle County
City of Charlottesville
Fluvanna County
Louisa County
Goochland County
