Twelve Days of Cachemas 2009 Final Prize Cache

Celebrating the 5th anniversary of Cachemas. It’s hard to believe that it has been 5 years since Dustiano grabbed the FTF on the first Cachemas Cache, A Micro in a Dead Tree, beating then FTF hound RJFerret in his own back yard. The next 12 days brought the first mini-event and a hotly contested race for the Final Prize Cache FTF. The years that followed brought many surprises and highlights with Music and Videos; Events, and lot’s of stories about the hunt. There was the miracle find by TourinCT that spurred another to the Grinch side. There were parallel series and cross-over caches. Over time the hides got better, the cammo more crafty and the Cachemas Cheer overflowed. So this year Cachemas celebrates it’s 5th anniversary by featuring highlights from past seasons mixed with new ideas. We hope you enjoy the season because it isn’t a few boxes in the woods that make Cachemas great; it’s great because you play.

In celebration of the holiday season JAMM is again pleased to present “The 12 Days of Cachemas”, a cache series running from December 25 to January 5 modeled after a familiar Christmas song. For each of the 12 days a new cache is released. In addition to the winter friendly fun each cache contains a clue to the coordinates for THIS final prize cache where we have placed a special gift for you.

The “Prize” is a gift from JAMM. There is no need to trade – enjoy.

To find this cache DON’T GO TO THE POSTED COORDINATES. Instead find the 12 Cachemas caches, collect the 12 clues and use them to figure out the final coordinates for this cache. This years clues will take you back in time to highlights from past years. Enjoy the romp through Cachemas History.

You will find the final in a gem of a park that you likely have never been too. It offers beautiful trails and much more. In fact there is so much to do I recommend you leave yourself time to explore even if it means giving up the FTF (besides you know who will probably got it anyway). The park is closed Dusk to Dawn and this is strictly enforced.

Last 4 years were a blast and we hope that this year will be even better. Good luck, enjoy and …


HAPPY CACHEMAS from JAMM
