The 2011 TRFTHOI


The 2011 Trackable Race For the Heck Of It!

The 2011 TRFTHOI is a race of trackable tags that began in New Hampshire on March 20, 2011 and will end on March 20, 2012. 

The race is for points.  Points are given for tasks that are accomplished by each trackable, as they make their journey.  Points will be tallied and result posted on this page every month. 

Here is a list of tasks and the points that are given for each task:

1.     Trackables must be dropped off in a cache and then picked up by another cacher.  Discovering and Dipping (visiting) of trackables is allowed, but there are no points awarded for those actions.  
2.     To get credit for crossing a state border, the trackable must be dropped off in at least one cache in the new state.  If a trackable passes through a state without being dropped off, then there are no points awarded.  This rule also applies to trackables that enter another country.
3.     Pictures are required at the caches and events where there is no physical container.  Pictures need to be posted on the trackables webpage.  Pictures are also required of the trackable at a night cache.

Prizes to the top 5 racers will be given at the conclusion of the race.  The prizes will be determined and announced at a later date.
