Current Goal

I am participating in the 3rd Annual Great TB Race. My goal is to travel far and wide, getting miles and points in the race. Please note, due to race rules, NO DIPPING. Please move this on to another cache, and leave it there ... and log its journeys on the way. I also get extra points for events, crossing state and country lines, and for pictures taken!

The race begins January 1st, 2011 and will last until December 31st, 2011. The winners of the race will earn prizes. The race is about earning points. Points are earned every time I meet one of the goals listed below (also found on my attached tag). But be careful. Any points that might be earned by dipping me in more than one cache will be voided. I only get points for the final cache you place me in. All race information, including rules, standings, and info on past races, can be found at The Great TB Race website. Help me win the race by keeping me moving.

The duck is not where it should be. It looks like it may have gone missing on June 11. Good Luck.

Based on the NO DIPPING rule, the distance between Deadwood and The Crows Nest Travel Bug Lodge is 1202.87 miles by my calculations. This results in an overall mileage loss of 455.34 miles from the geocaching.com mileage calculation, and 6 skipped caches.

However, the move is still worthwhile, accounting for 8 border crossings (AZ-NM-CO-NE-SD-NE-SD-IA-MN).

Since I am familiar with the scorekeeping of this race, I thought I would post my results here to assist the scorekeeper of this bug.
