Caching A,B,Z's
A Goal Compilation Cache
This goal compilation cache has two logging requirements in
addition to signing the log. You must complete these in order to
log the cache.
Logging Requirements
1) Find and create a bookmark list of caches you have found for
each letter of the alphabet plus this cache. (Total of 27
entries)
2) Take a picture of you with your handle spelled out and post it
with your log.
REQUIREMENT 1: A to Z bookmark list
The bookmark list must be public. This cache must be included on
the list, though this cache does not count for "C" and does not
have to be "Found" at the time of linking. If the title begins with
quotations, use the first letter and not the quotes. For
convenience sake, caches beginning with the word "the" will be
counted as "T" unless the following word begins with "X" or "Q"
(the most difficult letters to get). Please only link completed
bookmark lists and not in-progress lists. Caches placed by or
adopted by you will also count, but in that case the cache must
have been in existence prior to this one being placed. A good cache
is a good cache; but I don't want to see people going out and
placing one just to fulfill a letter requirement (although others
could benefit from your kindness and generosity).
REQUIREMENT 1A: Leveling the playing field
Those who have many caches under their belts may not have trouble
with the A to Z requirement. Originally, my intention was to place
a time frame on those who had logged 500 or more caches before
searching for this. After getting differing opinions from those I
asked to "beta" review my description, I came to a different
conclusion. I realized some people gather a large amount of caches
quickly, while others may take a lot longer to reach a hypothetical
number. Therefore; I have decided to leave the field as it is. Any
cache that you have logged in the past will count for this
requirement. The only time limit on caches is for those you have
placed or adopted. They still must have been in place and active
prior to March1, 2008.
REQUIREMENT 2: The picture
Inside the final cache are two cases of foam blocks. Do not take
the blocks! You must spell your handle with these blocks and take a
picture with you and the blocks in it. The blocks must easily be
readable. If there are not enough of a certain letter available,
please use a piece of paper and write the missing letter in the
block's place.
The coordinates and final cache hunt
The final cache has two stages. The first is a micro and the second
is a beefy ammo can. Both stages are located in the same park and
do not utilize unique or creative hides or require driving to
another location. You will not do much walking at all from your car
to the first stage. The second stage, depending on your approach,
will be a hike of approximately one mile round trip. For those who
wish to be FTF, this cache's posted coordinates will take you to
the first stage. However, you must first create and link the
bookmark list to this cache page before going after the physical
cache. You may have to wiggle and jiggle to retrieve the final,
it's a tight squeeze.
Additional information
Logs without the pre-requisite bookmark list and/or picture will be
deleted.
Just because I didn't see any snakes while scouting or placing this
cache, doesn't meant they aren't there. It's safe to assume they
may be in the area. Please use caution.
All the times I have been to this location, I have never seen
anybody hiking this area; but the four wheelers definitely traverse
the area. You should hear them long before you see them. The final
is only 20 to 25 feet off the nearest four-wheeler track; but after
a rain, parts of the tracks are almost impassable on foot.
