Pilotage Helps BakRdz Complete 600th Mission B-17 Navigator

[Sparse Grey Hackle]

Kudos to BakRdz!

➡ On completing his 600th mission at GC142XB here in the Sovereign State of Winneconne and in grand style!

Despite lots of Craphas 😆 to contend with (and little winter geocaching experience).

Although BakRdz has ‘only’ been caching for just about 5 months now his enthusiasm is contagious and his logs are great reads in themselves. ❗

Today, Jay also “delivered the mail” (#599) and got a FTF at GC1Z9Y9 plus he bagged another FTF during the “Storm of the Century” in the midst of a blizzard of craphas at GC1ZAZK beating the Abominable Snowman to the punch on Wednesday.

Or was it the Yetis: ❓ ❓ ❗ ❗ 😉

WTG Jay! 😀

Enjoyed reading the log…it gave me a brief “fix” while huddled indoors…am hoping for an early January thaw. Congrats on the milestone 😀

Congratulations on the milestone Jay. Keep on having fun, it just gets better!

Nice work Jay! I did a small amount of caching today and it wasn’t an overly joyous time. I can’t imagine that yesterday was even remotely a walk in the park! Keep up the great pace.

Pete I don’t think that would bother him too much.
He did 13 to get to 600 ❗

Yikes!

Thanks everyone! This caching in the “craphas” (especially in the country in the cold) makes it a bit more difficult than I expected, but still lots of fun. Including a few FTFs and a well done multi courtesy of the King and Queen of the Sovereign State made this a memorable start to December.

Think I’m going to concentrate on urban caches for a bit (not that those will probably be any easier) before going out to into the wild to attempt what will likely be just as memorable — Number SSSSix SSSSix SSSSix!

Congrats on the #600 milestone. I’ve looked at this cache a number of times, but just haven’t worked the puzzle portions. I’ve read a number of good stories on this cache and it sounds like a great milestone.

Now we can “officially” start planning the assault on SSSS to get you to #666.

Congrats on the 600, Jay! Great choice of a milestone find!
