This cache is located on the Wabash Cannonball Trail, and was
placed with permission of N.O.R.T.A. The Northwestern Ohio
Rails-to-Trails Association, Inc.
I would like to thank wvhunter for the idea, and for the blessing
to issue this challenge.
In order to log this cache as a find, you must first find and
log a cache that has been listed by another cacher whose OFFICIAL
cache name begins with each of the 36 alphanumeric characters. The
characters are A through Z and 0 through 9. Only the first
character of the cacher's name counts.
NOTE:
1. Special characters at the beginning of a cacher's name do not
count. Special characters are ignored and the first A-Z or 0-9
after the special character can be used.
2. Caching name is determined by the cachers registered
Geocaching.com name on their profile page. This is the page that
comes up AFTER you click on the cache owner link on the top of the
cache page. Group names, associations, or event committees do not
count UNLESS they are an official registered Geocaching.com
account.
The rules:
1. All previous cache finds count - you do NOT need to start your
count over from the beginning.
2. All types of caches qualify, as long as the cache owner's name
qualifies.
3. All qualifying cacher names must have been activated prior to
the publication of this cache. This can be confirmed from the
cacher's "Member Since" date on their profile page. This rule may
be relaxed upon proof that a false account was not created to meet
a specific character requirement.
4. Your finds can be in any state or country.
5. These must be caches listed on Geocaching.com that you have
personally (physically) found and logged. (General rules,
guidelines and conditions, as stated by Geocaching.com, for logging
a cache find apply.)
6. No logging finds on caches you own will be allowed.
7. If you have others with you when you find the final cache, only
those who have fulfilled ALL criteria for this cache will be
allowed to log it as a find.
8. Finds without the proper verification/documentation WILL be
deleted.
9. If there is ever an adoption on a cache you are using for this
challenge, the qualifying owner will be the cacher that owns the
cache when you found it.(proof of the adoption date may be
required)
Remember, please follow these rules to maintain a level playing
field for everyone.
Keep in mind we are primarily operating on the honor system here.
Help keep it honest.
How do you track your caches? There are three options:
1. Create a bookmark list.
2. Create a list on your profile page.
3. Upload a picture, (screen capture), of a Word or Excel document
showing your finds.
You must POST A LINK or
SCREENSHOT of your 36 QUALIFYING CACHES on this page to log a
FIND!
The final cache location is actually a difficulty/terrain rating
of 2/2. The 5 for the difficulty rating is based on the difficulty
of qualifying to log this cache.
And now for the fun!!!
Please post notes with any updates/links/photos or general progress
at will!
And don't forget to put a WATCH on this listing to keep track of
everyone's progress!
