- Having finished the challenge, I want to encourage those of you that have started to keep at it. Yes it takes time and a lot of gas, but it's so worth it. You will find that there are actually hills in southern Illinois, beautiful forests and scenery in southern Missouri. Having never been south of Elephant Rock State Park, I was amazed at the scenery and look forward to going back. Not all counties require day hikes to get the caches either. You may have to drive a bit farther than the county line to get to a cache, but it's a perfect way to spend a hot (or cold) day with friends.

There are now 100 cachers who have logged a note to say they are starting the challenge. Only 17 have finished. I thought there would be a lot of people finishing it up this summer but there has been only one finisher since mid-June. Let's get out and explore this area we call SLAGA territory! If you are working on it, I'm curious about how close you are to finishing. Obviously, this is a public forum so if you don't want to be specific, that's fine, but I'd like to hear some comments. For those who are not familar with it, check it out at GCZPRB. **************************************** For List Info or To make _ANY_ changes to your account, including unsubscribing from this list, click -----> //www.freelists.org/list/geocaching Missouri Caches Scheduled to be Archived http://tinyurl.com/87cqw Missouri Geocaching land policies --> http://tinyurl.com/lgyy84 Missouri Geocachers Forums --> http://mogeo.ipbhost.com/index.php Missouri Geocachers Calendar ---> http://mogeo.ipbhost.com/index.php?app=calendar No virus found in this incoming message.
