This is a challenge cache located at the posted coordinates along the Kokopelli Section of the Colorado Riverfront Trails.  The closest trailhead is at the end of 15 Road near Fruita.  Be assured that the "no trespassing" signs along the 15 Road refer to the businesses, not the road itself.

You must have met the challenge before you log this cache as found.

The challenge:  you must have found caches in at least 64 US counties and found all the counties in at least one US state.  The number needed to complete a state ranges from 3 in Delaware to 254 in Texas.  There are 64 counties in Colorado, but Colorado does not have to be your completed state.

Any bona fide find of a cache that shows the county completed on the project-gc maps counts for this challenge.

02Bhkn has 150 US counties and all the counties in Arizona.  I am working on the next level of this challenge, which will be 128 + 2.

Thanks to DrAcorn for the checker!

The difficulty listed is for the challenge; the hide is not difficult.

Happy caching!

~~***~~ Congrats to BG2015 for First to Find! ~~***~~

Sylvia and I took a walk along the a section of the Riverside Trail. We had maybe a dozen biker and walkers for company.

We found a cache in every one of Iowa's 99 counties before we moved to Colorado.

We have found a cache in 417 counties in 47 different states.

Love a challenging challenge and well-maintained cache to record it in. Thanks!

Woo-Hoo! A rare [FTF] opportunity for me. This is a lonely section of the Riverside Trail, just the way I like it. Walked the dog for two miles and only saw two people on bikes the whole time. I finished all the counties in Colorado last July, which would allow me to just qualify for this challenge, but I also have 135 counties total. I guess I need to look for another region to complete in anticipation of the 128+2. Good to see a new cacher and CO out here in our area. Just quit grabbing all the lonely caches that I am after! Thanks.

BG2015 has used Project-GC to see if they qualified for this challenge and they did.
