To get as far from Chicago as possible!
I always love to find trackables from faraway locations. It's fascinating to think about where they started out and what craziness they must have been through before they dropped into my hands. So I'd like this trackable to inspire the same sort of wonder in people halfway around the world.
Chicago's zero point is at N 41° 51.002, W 87° 39.003. So the ultimate goal of this trackable is Chicago's antipodal point on the globe: S 41° 51.002, E 92° 20.997. This happens to be in the middle of the Indian Ocean about halfway between Perth, Australia, and the French island of Kerguelen. I ask you, what good is a geocoin without ambition? :)
Get it as close as you can! If you can bring it to Perth, you get a gold star. If you can actually get it to Kerguelen, I'll buy you a beer. Get it to the exact coordinates, and I will buy you all the beers.
A Chicago-themed geocoin that I won in a raffle at the Geocaching World Wide Flash Mob XI in Boston, Massachusetts, USA.
