Geocache Description:

This Challenge cache Will get you out finding the oldest caches in Nor-Cal.
The idea is to log the 5 oldest caches within each of the 5 categories.
_____________________

In order to claim this cache, you must find and log the following list of caches. Once
all of the caches are logged as finds, you must send me a list of your finds so I
can verify them.

In your list of finds please include the Name of the cache, Date logged, and GC#.
You can either post a note on the cache page containing all of the required
info, or you can send me an E-Mail directly. Via my Geocaching Profile.

Any found logs posted without me recieving the required info, WILL be deleted.

All of the caches are located within 100 miles from where I live, Citrus Heights CA.

Here is your list of the caches needed to log this challenge.

Traditional .....Multi.......Puzzle........Virtual........LetterboxHybrid

Remember...You must log a find on all of the above caches before you can log a find on this one.

There is an older Virtual than the last one listed, but it is an armchair cache, so I excluded it.


There is an unactivated Travel Bug for the FTF. There is also a recycled retiredprof deuce.

Update as of 9-20-09, 2 of the original 25 caches have been archived. Due to this, A new rule takes effect immediately. If you found one of the 2 archived caches prior to 9-20-09, they count towards your 25. You will still need to find the other 4 in that category. The other 4 will be the 4 top ones on the list. Here are the 2 archived caches...GC72E, and GCMFFM
As of 6-28-13 One of the virtuals has been archived. I have added a new one to the top of the list. If you found Rebecca Cat Cache before this date it will count for your list, if not you will need to use The Great Lobos.
