2007 MT HOOD TERRITORY GEOCACHING CONTEST
July 1 - 31, 2007 :: This Geocache will remain as 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. (the word "CAREFUL" is an example only and is not used
as a CODE WORD in this contest. There are various items in the
Cache that are there for trade. You may leave Travel Bugs, Geocoins
and other tradeables in the Cache for the next finders as this will
remain a Regular Geocache after the Contest is over. So, carry
Trade Items with you. 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 found and Logged
your find (Don't forget to record the 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.
MUSEUM OF OREGON HISTORY
OREGON CITY
This is a great place to visit.
There is a good view of the Willamette Falls but a another view
is at the Overlook on Highway 99E below.
While doing this Cache take a minute to look to the South and
take time to read the Memorial for Oregon City's Medal of Honor
winner. He gave his Life for our Freedoms and Values.
ACCESS HOURS: 6:00AM TO 9:PM
