Welcome to the 2025 Taconic Region NYS Park Summer Geocaching Challenge. Please see HH 1 for details about the challenge.
SURVIVOR STARS
It was inevitable that Geocachers like us would fall in love with the 48-season reality TV show Survivor. A key aspect of the game is finding hidden advantages in the forest or jungle. The six caches presented represent a tribute to stars of the show.
RUSSELL HANZ
Russell Hanz is probably the most notorious “villain” to play Survivor. He appeared three times and was a runner up in two. Both times his ruthlessness and strategic prowess brought him to the end, but he deeply offended the other contestants and so was denied the prize. The third time his reputation caused him to be voted off very early. Although lying and deceit is necessary to go far in the game, Russell’s gameplay proved there is a limit to this approach.
