Alabama 67-County Challenge (GC14RJR) State of Alabama 1/8/2010

When we started caching in 2007, we would cache in areas we knew and liked, which mostly seemed to be northeast Alabama. Then of course, we would cache our way to the beach, so only the straight line southern counties on our trip would be hit. We soon learned from our caching friends we should attempt the 67 county challenge. So, with the help of CaverScott and oldboy hiker, we slowly chipped away at the needed counties.

The whole process to complete the challenge took a couple of years, but once we really decided to finish it, we were on the road almost every weekend!

With all of us having the necessary time off from work, we planned our final clean-up cache run for the southern Alabama counties. Caver planned out the trip with exact precision and excellent routing of caches and counties. We had a blast finding all the caches and seeing all the different counties. We also learned a lot of history and enjoyed seeing the sights of the rural south.

We thoroughly enjoyed the 67 county challenge!
