| I might try and find a way to attend. It looks like a blast. Have to bring the popup camper if I go. |

Traditionally, yes, but I'm not sure about this year since it's moving venues. All I can find is 150 new caches, which Sparkyfry and SNB can tackle in a few hours. Looking at the google map of the area it doesn't look like there are too many around it. This could be an interesting year for MOGA. _________________ Beer is proof that God loves us and wants us to be happy. |

MOGA usually puts out a huge number of permanent caches for the event - I would expect this year to be no different.
The number of logable caches that they have is one of the big draws (I believe) to the event. _________________ Hmm... |

True, but I can only find them listing 150 or so according to the cache page. Which is a lot yes, but I thought in Missouri there were over 500 within a 5 or 10 mile radius. Maybe I'm wrong on that?  _________________ Beer is proof that God loves us and wants us to be happy. |

I show 600 in a 50 mile radius, or 350 in a 10 mile radius. This is from a GSAK load I did at the time of the 2010 event. _________________ Hmm... |

The MOGA website says they're placing caches this Saturday for the 2011 event. |
