Here’s the contest…
MARATHON OF PAIN CONTEST
By The X-Treme GPS Team

We are giving you 24 Lat/Longs or UTM’s positions to get to.

3 positions are buried steel bars; the others (are) stakes, tags glued to rock or nailed to objects.

All positions will have GPS tags (some will have 2 tag’s).

This contest will end at 9:00pm, Sunday, 5th of March, 2006. The goal of this contest is to get as many tag numbers as possible. The team with the most tags will get $50.00 per tag found (exception: multiple tags at a position count as one tag – i.e. if two tags are found on a steel bar, stakes or trees then report both tag #’s, – these two tags will count as one tag, and be worth $50.00). In the event of a tie, funds will be split.

Please put your answers on vigps.com under this Forum post; and please put your answers in numerical order.

Please DO NOT use this forum post for nonsense and smiley faces as they’re a waste of everyone’s time.

There will only be one winner – that team or individual with the most tags found.

You are responsible for your own safety and well being.
