Geocache Description:

Are you ready for the ultimate Colorado challenge?  The Colorado DeLorme Atlas and Gazetteer has 92 map pages.  You need to find 92 caches to complete this challenge.  Do not go to the listed coordinates, they are to the Denver Zoo.

Please note that the coordinates posted on this page are not the coordinates for the final cache-indeed they might not even be close to its location!!!

1.  Find a cache within the boundaries of each page of the Colorado DeLorme Atlas & Gazetteer.  All cache types count as finds for the DeLorme Challenge.  If a page overlaps into another state, then the cache must be within the State of Colorado.  (10/10/06 The cache must also be listed with the state of Colorado, the virtuals that are listed in other states that border Colorado don't count).

2.  Generally accepted rules, guidelines and conditions for logging a cache find apply.  These must be bona fide caches listed on Geocaching.com that you have personally (physically) found and logged.  You may include caches found prior to the creation of The Colorado DeLorme Challenge.

3.  Remember all caches must meet the guidelines of geocaching.com.

4.  After completing the challenge you will need to notify me that you have found all the required caches.  I will verify that online logs satisfy the requirements.  I will then send you the coordinates to the final cache and log book.

5.  If you find the final cache accidently, your log will be deleted until you complete the challenge.

6.  (10/10/06)Page 102 and 103 contain 2 maps on each page.  You must find a cache for each of these maps.

7.  (3/16/07) Logging of a cache that has been archived will not be counted towards the challenge.  If a cache gets archived after you have logged it, it still counts.

8.  There are a number of editions of the Delorme Atlas now out with minor printing differences.  To avoid any confusion about what page a cache is on, the following table will be considered the authority.
