In order to claim a smiley on this cache you will need to find:
Total cache-to-cache distance in elevation: 350 000 meters

jpavlik have made a script named: Altitude sum checker

I used this checker for inspiration:

[Team Karlsen](https://www.geocaching.com/profile/?u=Team%20Karlsen) has used [Project-GC](https://project-gc.com/Challenges/GC7N2JW/34298 "Project-GC Challenge Checker") to see if they qualified for this challenge and they did.

I have travelled for **356998m** of elevation

And if i use the one you tagged i get:

[Team Karlsen](https://www.geocaching.com/profile/?u=Team%20Karlsen) has used [Project-GC](https://project-gc.com/Challenges/GC7Y37B/37420 "Project-GC Challenge Checker") to see if they qualified for this challenge and they did.

I have found 8517 caches in 7 countries:
Total altitude = **1288504m**

So the numbers from the last one is way higher then the first one. Is this correct?

Checker modified to use travelled distance, ie. altitude difference from cache to cache. Initially it was set to sum(altitude) which is not what you want. It should be all good now?
