- L Frank and I have about 6 more counties in Illinois to do, which we plan to snag on our trip to Moonshine on Labor Day weekend. This challenge has been a lot of fun so far. As it turns out, we've been able to beat the heat by grabbing a few easy-terrain caches in one county, then driving in air-conditioned luxury to another group of caches in the next county. We are using Streets and Trips on a laptop computer hooked up to a GPS receiver to plan the most efficient route from county to county. If we spend both Saturday and Sunday on the road, we have been able to knock out 20 counties in one weekend without feeling rushed. -Laurie (Denmother) > Date: Thu, 19 Aug 2010 22:47:04 -0500 > Subject: [GeoStL] SLAGA County Challenge > From: rogerbarnes51@xxxxxxxxx > To: geocaching@xxxxxxxxxxxxx > > - > Just a quick shout out about my SLAGA County Challenge.
