Date placed challenge?
Anybody know of a challenge cache for dates placed? IOW, you must have found a cache that was placed on every date of the year, actual year doesn't matter, just the date placed (at least one on a January 1, one on a January 2, etc).

Re: Date placed challenge?
I currently qualify for 365. As of next Wednesday I will qualify for 366.
I have heard of this specific challenge, but don't know where they are.

GC2QAMT is the first one I found after a brief search. It is in Oregon State. I am too tired to look for one closer tonight. I did look through Ohio first, and didn't see one.

Re: Date placed challenge?
Just downloaded two GSAK macros.... the first told me I have 338 out of a possible 366 dates found. The second showed me all of the ones that I can use to fill in the missing dates. Looks like I have another challenge to work on and it looks like I will have to save my allowance for gas.... again.
Now all I need is for someone to place this cache somewhere in the area. (Hint, Hint)

Re: Date placed challenge?
You will need to get out a calendar and a pen. Start making marks on the calendar on days you have. I wouldn't think you would have to go through more than 4000 of your 5500 finds...T-Hunter wrote:not sure how to check mine since I am a non gsak user
Maybe you could just sweettalk a GSAK user. I'm sure there is a way to check someone else's stats.

Re: Date placed challenge?
Thanks Mo, I am now slightly less GSAK challenged. Now where to go for the "placed date" challenge?
