2nd Annual Colorado Counties Finishers Event

Join the GCCO Board in Pueblo County as we ponder the often asked muggle question “you drove HOW far to do WHAT???”

We will provide brats and buns and mmm Ice-cream. You are welcome to bring a side dish to share (obviously not a requirement).  Bring your own choice of beverage.

Also bring your knowledge of Colorado and prepare to be Challenged!

You do not need to have cached in all the Colorado counties to attend the event.  Everyone is welcome!

 

There are 64 counties in Colorado. Have you found a cache in each and every one of them? Have you signed the “extremely-hard-to-get-to” challenge cache? 

GC8DT6G    The NEW Colorado County Challenge by Pathfinder33

This 5D/5T cache is located at the top of Imogene Pass between Ouray and Telluride in the San Jan Mountains. To date 11 finishers have signed the official log, with a 12^th pending.

 

More Details about the Event

Event Time 11:00am – 1:00pm

For anyone who attended GC9V3R5 Farewell to the Grand Lake Geocaching Campout, you know the drill. Parking is available along the side of the house in the gravel driveway. There is also some on-street parking, but please do not block any driveways.

Geocaching HQ is posting this updated Announcement on all Community Celebration Events.

As the Coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19) situation is evolving rapidly around the world, Geocaching HQ urges all Event hosts and attendees to prioritize the safety of themselves and their attendees.

At this time, we advise Event hosts to consult their regional health authorities to understand the guidance regarding gatherings of people. Generally, Geocaching HQ leaves the decision to Event hosts on whether to continue hosting the Event and to attendees on whether they will participate. In some regions, community volunteer reviewers may suspend publishing new geocaches, including Events and/or may disable, retract, or archive already published Events, in accordance with guidance from health authorities.

We want to allow flexibility for hosts who need to reschedule their published Community Celebration Events due to COVID-19 concerns. If hosts wish to reschedule their Community Celebration Event:

Create an Announcement log to notify users that the Event is cancelled and may be rescheduled.
Disable the Community Celebration Event.
Contact the publishing reviewer to retract the Event.
Update the Event date.
Submit listing for publication.

We understand it can be very disappointing to miss the connections that are made at Events. But please remember that geocaching is a location-based game, and locationless Events or virtual logging of Events are not permitted by the Geocaching guidelines. HQ appreciates that the community is so strong that players want to keep in touch virtually and we encourage doing so using other online platforms. Read the Geocaching Blog for tips about how to stay active with geocaching during these challenging times. Thank you for your understanding.
