In July 2008, were 22 caches in Oregon active during the first year of Geocaching (5-3-00 to 5-3-01). As of October 2025, the number has now dropped to 21 active caches. The challenge is to find the current active first year caches in Oregon (hiders count as finders). Once this has completed, send me a message, when I've verified the finds you'll be able to log this cache. The D/T rating is because at least one of the caches is a 3.5* difficulty and one is a 5* terrain, the actual cache is much easier, but I'm not saying by how much.
Only those who qualify (completed all caches) can post finds for this cache, even if you find it with someone who does qualify.
Final Coordinates: You will be able to find the final coordinates to this cache while on the hunt of all of the caches, if for some reason you happen to miss the coordinates or are not able to figure out where the final coordinates are by the time you complete all of the caches, the cache owner will give you a hint to help you along the way.
If the number of first-year caches drops (due to archiving) to less than 15 this cache will also be archived.
