Geocache Description:

Help keep the local area caches in working order

This cache is a small Lock n Lock and IS at the posted coordinates, but you must complete the requirements below before logging a find.

This cache challenge is designed to help maintain the area caches. It was placed in preparation for GeoWoodstock VI, and will continue after the event.

Before you can find and log this cache, you must do the following:

  1. Identify 10 physical caches within a 50 mile radius of this cache which have not been visited (found, had a maintenance check, TB exchange, etc.) in the past 3 months. These can be caches you have already found or not. They can also be caches that you own. If you live more than 50 miles from this cache, you can use your home coordinates as the center point.
  2. You must physically visit each of the 10 caches. If the cache is a multi-stage, you must visit all stages. Check the condition of the cache. Make sure there is plenty of space remaining in the logbook. There will be thousands of cachers coming to GW6, so we want to be ready.
  3. Log each of the 10 caches. Sign the physical log for the qualifying caches and note on the log that is it a maintenance visit. If this is your first visit to the cache, post your online log for that cache as a find. If you have previously visited and logged the cache, post a note, notifying the owner and the community that you visited and verified the cache to be in working order. Note: Any maintenance or repairs to the cache should be done only with permission of the owner.
  4. When you have found and logged 10 qualifying caches, go find this cache. When you post your find online, list the GC waypoint IDs of the 10 qualifying caches. You do not need confirmation from me before logging, but I will be checking that you met the requirements above. "Found It" logs for this cache that do not meet the requirements will be deleted.
You may log multiple finds for this cache. For every 10 caches you visit which meet the above requirements, you can log this cache again. Simply post another find log and list the 10 qualifying caches you visited. Thanks for your help in maintaining the caches in the area!!
