About This Item

Ready to Race!


GA Kepec's Mission:

To race around the continental USA visiting 5 of the 8 different man made wonders and have her picture taken at each site for verification.

Cannon Mountain Aerial Tramway, NH
Grand Central Station, NY
Mount Rushmore, SD
Hoover Dam, AZ NV
Golden Gate Bridge, CA
The Cloud Gate, Chicago IL
The Gateway Arch, MO
The Boeing Aircraft Assembly Plant, WA


when she has 5 of the 8 she needs to return to Ye Olde 41 Travel Bug Motel in Kennesaw, GA to claim her prize and be retrieved by her owner TRAM.


Rules:

1. GA Kepec may visit any man made Wonder at any given time, in any order.

2. GA Kepec must be photographed as close to the natural wonder as humanly possible, without trespassing of course. The  wonder's name along with GA Kepec must be legible in the digital picture(s). The photo(s) must be uploaded to your log in order for GA Kepec to get credit for the natural wonder visit.

3. GA Kepec must physically be put into a cache. No electronic "drop-ins" allowed. Someone else has to retrieve the bug after cache placement. Only 1 wonder visit allowed per cacher/team. Any other wonders visited by the same cacher/team will not count!

4. This is a US-based travel bug race only. 

5. Once GA Kepec has reached the 5th man made Wonder she must make her way back to Ye Olde 41 Travel Bug Motel.

 


Please be considerate and fair to GA Kepec and her owner TRAM and help her along her way. Thank you!

I see Newcastle took him to visit the Cloud Gate "bean". I marked the score sheet so other finders know he was already there. I'll move him along soon so he can be on his way!
