Mission GC Souvenir 1


Last week Geocaching.com released an email to Premium Members supplying the first clue to the Mission GC souvenirs for August 2016.


Of course, the Southeastern Michigan Geocaching FB Group was right on this! But, if you couldn't solve it, hints were given on the blog and today Geocaching.com released the solve.


To earn this first Mission GC souvenir, cachers must find and log minimum 1 geocache 
with 10+ Favorite points either today or tomorrow.

You would think this would be a piece of cake for veteran cachers, but TaGeez and I have cleared most of them off our local map. We have targeted two - one to the East and one to the West - depending on where our paths take us. 

I enjoy these annual challenges - it introduces new or better caches to newer members and rewards the veterans with some nifty souvenirs.



FINDING QUALIFYING GEOCACHES

If you need help locating qualifying caches, just visit geocaching.com and click the Play button (along the top). From the drop-down, select Find a Geocache and enter your search location. Once your results appear, click the Change Filters option (under the search box).


You can refine your search by type, distance, etc. The most important fields are:
  • Minimum Favorite Points = 10
  • I Haven't Found
  • I Don't Own
  • Enabled
Once you've made your selections, click Update Search to view a list of viable listings.
