Current Goal

When Masker26 placed this Geocoin in a cache in Fort Collins it completed the first part of the original objective, it has circled the globe.  So, let us now change the objectives, please place it in such a way to help it back to:-
Canada, British Columbia, Vancouver Island, North Saanich.  It has been through every line of longitude and  now it should head home where I can recover it, refurbish it, and set it off on a new adventure.

The Original Objective
The object for this coin is to travel steadily eastwards, circle the globe and return to North Saanich where it started. If you find the coin please try to place it to the EAST of wherever you found it, or somewhere close where it might get a quick trip eastwards, such as a local airport.

As a reminder, this has made its complete trip around the world, it has been through every line of longitude and so should now be heading northwest towards British Columbia and back towards the place it started from.
