Coords listed will take you to the cache, but do not try to find it before completing the requirements: Complete the challenge Build your bookmark list Post a note here that you are done Go out & find the cache.

Our inspiration for this cache came from three others:

• Know Your Local Cacher Challenge (GC1JQAD) put out by Douglas Clan in the Tacoma, WA area
• Variety is the Spice of Life Challenge (GC1THHV) by SerenityNow north of Akron, OH
• Variety Pack Challenge (GC1YNHZ) in Detroit, MI by Brummelbear

A few important things I've noticed about Geocaching...

1. It's easy to get complacent and only hunt the easy traditional hides
2. It's fun to take on a challenge.
3. This cache will definitely give you a run for your money.
4. This stuff is just plain addictive!

Your goal is to find 3 different kinds of caches hidden by 10 different cachers.

• You will need to find a total of 30 caches to complete this challenge, plus finding 1 additional cache for the final.
• You will need to find caches hidden by your choice of 10 different cachers.
• You will need to find 3 different types of caches hidden by each of the 10 cachers. Size, Difficulty and Terrain are unimportant.
• You may vary your type of find per cacher.

• No old finds - The FINDS for this challenge must not be from any earlier than August 29, 2009 (date of the first CedarCreekGeocachers.com Event).
• No adopted caches - Must be the original cache placer's hide only. Neither the original placer nor the adopter can be counted on an adopted cache.
• No temporary cache finds allowed. Only actual event or CITO attendance is acceptable to claim the event category.
• No combining of accounts - All must be logged by one account.
• No finding your own caches.
• The "real" cache placer's name is the only one that counts, not aliases: ie: Mitch the Caching K9, GeoGhouls, boxin' boatchick. (Just hit the A cache by link on the cache page to reveal the correct owner)
