I have run a marathon in all 50 states + DC. Too bad I wasn't geocaching when I started that challenge. Since I have not found a geocache in all 50 states, I am creating a 10 state challenge cache. The cache IS at the posted coords. To qualify for this cache you must have found a cache in 10 different States. Use the provided checker and post your results in your log. The difficulty is not in the cache itself (that is a 1), but in the travel needed to qualify for the challenge. The cache is low to the ground so may not be accessible if there is snow near GZ.
Here is my list:
1. **Colorado** (Don't) Keep the Gnome Fires Burning (GC3RAGR) | 2018-07-21 | 2012-07-26
2. **Ohio** FSWCD Pollinator Trail: Carnegie Library (GC7BWPV) | 2018-08-08 | 2017-09-04
3. **Indiana** Does your car need one of these (GC46BYT) | 2018-08-12 | 2013-02-21
4. **Kentucky** JAC ~ 002 (GC331PC) | 2018-08-12 | 2011-08-26
5. **Wyoming** Wyoming Welcomes You (GC1H2XX) | 2018-09-09 | 2008-10-10
6. **South Dakota** Two Buttes for the price of one (GC4FYE3)] | 2018-09-09 | 2013-07-06
7. **North Dakota** Welcome to North Dakota () | 2018-09-09 | 2011-08-28
8. **Montana** A Fair Cache (GC7QNZ4) | 2018-09-10 | 2018-06-03

04/01/2020 By millermaryjean Found it easily! Here’s a map of all the states where we have found caches. Remember when we could go to other states to cache, run marathons or even just visit family? Those were the good old days, huh? I gave this a favorite.
03/15/2020 By sleuthers Thanks for challenge that I qualify for. Cache is in good shape.
sleuthers has used Project-GC to see if they qualified for this challenge and they did.
I have found required number of caches (1) in each of 47 Regions (required number of Regions: 10).
03/12/2020 By chihuahuajill Fun challenge; my qualifications are posted below. Thanks for placing this cache for me to find. TFTC.
02/27/2020 By Back Country Horsemen Walked on up to this one & fortunately the area was dry so found it easily. I qualify for this one with 32 states & my profile is public. Congrats on running marathons in all 50 states! That’s quite a goal to reach & much harder than finding a cache. Wow!
