Official Rules

  • All previous finds count.
  • Keep it simple, keep it fun!
  • This is a 365 day cache: You must have visited a cache each calendar day: January 1, January 2, etc. They do not all have to be the same year. You need to find a cache for each day of the year. However, there is a twist:
  • There are fourteen current active icons that are used on GC. Your goal is to have at least twenty (20) each from 8 main list of icons on your profile page. You will need to only find 20 events regardless of cito or traditional event…. But you must have at least 2 event icons.
  • There are six rare icons and your goal is to have at least two (2) on your profile.
  • So in this case you must find 20 days of caches from the main list and 2 days from the rare list and then you have cacher’s choice on any icon (except the Traditional) to make up the remaining days . Thus you are limited to 20 traditional caches total. Event Caches: Due to the limit of cito events, you only need twenty events total (but you need to have at least 2 event icons)
  • All generally accepted rules and guidelines for logging a cache still apply. You must also satisfy any conditions set forth on the individual cache's listing.
  • You cannot log finds on caches you own.
  • While this is listed as a puzzle cache, it does not count toward satisfying that icon requirement.
  • While you can take others with you on the hunt for the final, only those satisfying the requirements can claim a find. Everyone may sign the log book to say they were with the individual who completed the challenge. However, only signatures made after satisfying the requirements will count as a physical find at the final.


Submitting Your Find

  1. Submit a public and shared bookmark of the caches that you are submitting for this challenge and this cache must be included on the list. Or send a gpx file with your finds!
  2. Note that the benchmarks icon will not attach to the bookmark list. Your profile page will be reviewed to verify that 20 benchmarks have been logged. .
