Rules
In order to log this cache as "found", you must follow this set of
rules:
- You must first complete the challenge portion of this cache by
finding SIX cache types in ONE DAY! The thirteen
acceptable cache types are:
 Traditional Cache
 Multi-Cache (Offset Cache)
 Mystery or Puzzle Caches
 Letterbox Hybrid
 EarthCache
 Virtual Cache
 Webcam Cache
 Wherigo™ Cache
 Event Cache
 Mega-Event Cache
 Cache In Trash Out Event
 GPS Adventures Maze Exhibit
 Project A.P.E. Cache
 Locationless caches do
NOT qualify for this challenge!
 Benchmarks do
NOT qualify for this challenge!
- Benchmarks and locationless types do NOT count
toward the goal!
- Your busy day can be from any day, regardless of if it was from
before this cache was published.
Your busy day must be on or
after 04/26/09. Previous busy days do not count at this time.
Now that 25 people have found the cache, the restriction has been
lifted.
- This cache container cannot count toward its own goal. This
cache does not count as the Unknown cache type and cannot be one of
your six caches. If you find an Unknown cache type as part of this
challenge, it cannot be this cache (GC1P1MZ).
- In order to log your find and get your smiley, you must
locate the physical cache and sign the log. (The cache is
at the coordinates listed above.)
- You are not required to find this cache container on
the same day you fulfilled the challenge requirements. You
do need to include in your log the date that you fulfilled
the challenge requirements, though. If you do find this cache on
the same day, you must do so after fulfilling the
requirements. You cannot find 3 cache types, then sign the log for
this cache, then find the 3 remaining cache types.
- Cache hides/placements do not count toward this goal. Only
finds are valid.
- Caches may be from any location/state. This challenge
is not restricted to New York. The cache title includes "in NY"
simply to clarify where this cache is physically located compared
with the other Busy Day caches.
- You do not need to obtain permission from the cache
owner before logging this find. The cache owner will research your
finds once you log your entry to confirm that you have fulfilled
the requirements. Additionally, the cache owner will attempt to
contact you for clarification before deleting any logs.

How is
this challenge possible???
Though it takes planning, it is possible to grab six (and even
eight) cache types in one day. The great thing about this cache is
that it's a difficult challenge, and it's even harder for those
die-hard cachers who have cleared all the caches nearby. |

Congratulations
to THEQUEENSREPLY and LCSM for
taking the extra initiative for the FTF! Instead of waiting three
days to take the easy route, they drove many miles to make for a
truly busy day!
You can hover over the cache type icons to see which caches
each person found to fulfill this challenge. These are just
the first 25 cachers to find the challenge cache. Congratulations
to all cachers who were able to make for one busy day!

I knew we would be in this park for N3's soccer tourney this weekend, so I checked to see what caches were here. Was intrigued by this one, and since we were about to go to Mendon Ponds for the first time soon, I knew we had a shot. Last weekend (7/17/10) we found the following:Traditional: GC28VYQ - Holy Smokes - An Ammo Can
Multi: GCN8ZK - J&R's Outdoor Store Cache
Earthcache: GCMYFK - Bathing with the Devil Earthcache
Letterbox: GCJWMP - Canal Kayaker
Virtual: GCH25Z - GPS-O (Mendon Ponds Park)
Puzzle: GC1D5NR - Ode to Doe I stopped by between games and found after a bit and after a number of mosquito attacks. Thanks for the challenge, and the cache!

I had a blast doing the "One Busy, Well-Rounded Day in NY" in NY. I was up in the north Catskills for the Holiday so I hit a bunch of caches north of the Catskills but south of Albany. I hit them in the order listed below. I saved the "easiest" for last but almost DNF'd a Virtual cache. I know...I know...Date found for all caches were 7/3/10 Earthcache: GC1X8F1 "Fractures From the Distant Past" Letterbox hybrid: GC1JM2K "1Irishgirl, will you marry me?" Multi cache: GCQE15 "the Brooklyn Bridge starts here ?" Mystery cache: GC16BD0 "Looking to the stars * * * " Traditional cache: GC22CDW "Vanderbilt Park Micro Cache Virtual cache: GC6D07 "kaaterskill falls" Now I just need to get my butt to the Syracuse area.

This was our holiday tour. We had our busy well rounded day on Father's Day and found:
Webcam: UofR Meridian GCGPW1
EarthCache: Furnaceville Hematite GC1GDKF
Virtual: GPS-O (Webster Park) GCJM6W
Traditional: The Real Palooza GCZA62T
Multi: Spoongouge's First GC11YVF
Unknown: The Final Sense: Nonsense GCZ7V4and finished this on Independence Weekend! We made the rookie mistake of not spraying before searching and once we were at gz the skeeters reminded us. Thankfully had the spray in the bag and we think that may have caused the skeeters to feel they had their own challenge to overcome. With all the overgrowth and bugs, we have a few battle scars to show for this challenge. TFTC
