Street View Scavenger Hunt


About

Scavenger hunts are contests to see who can find the most maps in a list of categories. To participate, you simply submit maps as normal, then select the scavenger hunt category you are submitting to. Once a moderator approves your map, you automatically get points for that category.

The user with the most points at the end of the hunt wins!
