MT HOOD TERRITORY GEOCACHING CONTEST
July 1- 31, 2007 :: This Geocache remains a Regular Geocache
after the Contest is over.
- ONE OF TEN CACHES -
There are ten Geocaches in this series that forms the Clackamas
County Geocache Contest sponsored by the Clackamas County Tourism
Development Council (CCTDC).
The Geocache Waypoint Control Numbers for the rest of these
Geocaches can be found at www.MtHoodTerritory.com by clicking on
the "Suitcase" symbol. That is also where you will find the July
2007 Contest Rules and Information.
The actual Geocaches are all similar and can be identified by
the Steel Blue-colored AMMO Cans with a MT Hood Territory Sticker
on one side and marked as an "OFFICIAL GEOCACHE" on the other side.
Each Cache contains a Log Book and written on the inside bottom of
the AMMO Can is a 'CODE WORD' that you record on your Contest
Registration Sheet. The Code Word is also printed on white paper
that has been laminated and placed in the bottom of the Geocache
Container. There are various items in the Cache that are there for
trade. You may leave Travel Bugs, Geocoins are other tradeables in
the Cache for the next finder. Please try to keep the quality of
the Trades as being at or above what you take. This will certainly
please the next finder!!
As we anticipate that there will be heavy traffic to find these
Geocaches, please practice the very best of Geocaching Ethics. Each
of the Caches is placed for relatively easy access and discovery.
Therefore it is very important that you be well aware of Muggles
and carefully replace the Geocaches after you have Logged your Find
(Don't forget to record your Code Word!).
If you discover any problems with a Geocache, a quick e-mail to
ORNITH through my PROFILE on Geocaching.com will be very greatly
appreciated by the Geocachers that will come behind you.
In most cases there are TIME CONSTRAINTS on the Caches. That
means that there are times when they can be accessed and times when
they are OFF LIMITS. Please abide by these times as in many cases
they are placed by special permission of the Caretakers of the
location where they are located. Thank you.
