PNZ Posted June 28, 2008 Share Posted June 28, 2008 Has anyone organize a Rally that involves grabbing as many caches in a set time period with 25 to 50 caches placed, And will GEOCACHE.COM allow this many caches to be published at one time. I am not trying to make an event just a series of caches that can be quick and easy grab and go. Quote Link to comment

I am not trying to make an event just a series of caches that can be quick and easy grab and go. It's been done for the past 5 years in the Northern Nevada area. It is hosted by GBES (Great Basin Eastern Sierra Geocachers). Here's the GC code for this past years Rally: GC19H7H It's an off-road navigational rally with about 50 caches that you can log. We just had the 2008 Rally a couple of weeks ago. It's an amazing event and something I look forward to each year. Not only do you get the fun of geocaching, you are being timed doing it, and you get to use your navigational skill away from the city streets. They put on a Friday night run and a Saturday run. It's a total blast! Bernard (Bernsports) Edited June 28, 2008 by Bernsports Quote Link to comment

We have done it for two years now. (Bernsports beat us this year by the way.) Quote Link to comment
+Moose Mob Posted July 8, 2008 Share Posted July 8, 2008 (edited) Sounds fun but.... In a Rally, you run the course in a specific time (lose pooints for arriving early or late). In Race, you see who can do it fastest. To get the caches published, and event or anything, it would have to be legal. This means your course must be off the city streets, have the needed permits, etc. The caches would need to stand on their own. To be published, the need to abide by the guidelines. In particular, the saturation and permanance guidelines. This may be a bit more complex than you are looking for, but I would love to see John (of jahoadi and john) in a foot race against PhantomWSO or anyone else for that matter. Esapecially if it we 20 caches at .25 apart on a clear August day and in an open desert. Edited July 8, 2008 by Moose Mob Quote Link to comment

If you create it like The Great American Race but keep it to a county or two... wow! Better stick to the road I think - because many Jeep owners will be able to go! (Just kidding, Jeep Friends).

I completely agree. This would be hard to ignore so you better keep it as far to the Wild West as possible... CVC area comes to mind. Quote Link to comment
