Challenge Cache - Happy Cache-iversary Mystery Cache

This cache has been archived.

Portera: Stopped by today and the area is under "destruction" for the light rail extension. It is no longer accessible by visitors. I never really liked the convoluted challenge criteria I was forced into anyhow...

Geocache Description:

This is a Challenge Cache
The cache is at the posted coordinates.

Our lives are full of firsts. Our first word, our first steps, loosing our first tooth, our first day at school, our first kiss, our first time...
Well, you get the idea.

This challenge cache is about one of your notable firsts.
Your first geocache find.


To log this challenge cache you need to convert your anniversary date to 3 letters as follows, Day-Month-Digital Root of Year
(Where 1=A, 2=B... 26=Z, 27=A, 28=B).
For example 23-Aug-2007 converts to 23-8-9 = W-H-I

Then complete ONE of the following tasks :

1) Find FIVE caches with those three letters in the name, contiguous and in the same order. (Letters may be separated by punctuation or spaces)
2) Find TEN caches whose names contain those three letters in any order or position.
3) Find TWENTY caches whose GC code contains the three letters in any order or position. As cache codes do not contain all letters, convert the following letters to numbers (I=1, L=3, O=zero, S=5, U=7) for this option only.

In your found log, please include a link to your first log, and a link to the caches you found to complete the challenge. You may provide a public bookmark if that is easier.

Happy Cache-iversary!
