Ohio Top 10 Challenge

Post by Handyman-N-Fam »

I learned my lesson the last time I put out a challenge cache. I learned that a good chunk of the locals don't like challenges that require a donation to OPEC. So, in collaboration with my cousin in Columbus, we published the Ohio Top 10 Challenge today.
I felt that even though half the caches on the list were in NWOGEO territory the cache belonged somewhere near the middle of the state. So, check out the page and let me know what you think. In your travels throughout the buckeye state see if you can locate some of the most favorited caches Ohio has to offer.

Question: If this Challenge, in itself, becomes a Top 10 Favorite Ohio cache, does this cache then cancel itself out?
Or would finding this cache after you've found the other nine become acceptable for completion?

This prediction has about as much chance of happening as, say, dogs wearing makeup. :twisted:

on a side note...methinks all my caches are in a tie for last place on the favorites list but would be on the top of the list for FUN caches !

I saw this published just 8 miles from my house. I have actually been working on trying to get the highest favorited caches the last couple weeks. Only snagged a couple so far. Trying to get out to do that night cache but it just isn't lining up with busy plans so far. >.<

Yeah, that night one so far away seems to be the biggest stumbling block for me. Have already done all the rest except for the one in Cinci.

Some NWOGEO members should take an evening and run down and grab that night cache. I would be in.
We could leave about 5 and we could be back around midnight.

The one in Cinci (Shawnee Lookout) is quite nice. We did it Saturday. 3 hours there and 3 hours back. We left at 7AM and had it and the other two along the way in the bag before noon. Did some other stuff and stayed the night, back on Sunday before noon.

The night one is why I pulled out for now. Not because it is a night cache (I like those), its just that I know I'll never get around to doing it due to the time restrictions. I figure the rangers will get tired of it sooner or later, and it will go by the wayside.

Lets all favorite T-Hunters cache with 28 favs already, and get it into the top 10. :)
