FTF Madness 3 "The Cattail Marsh" Traditional Cache

Congratulations to River_runr for the FTF

THE IDEA:

This FTF series was inspired by hypocorism's FTF Frustration series GC1350E

The FTF Madness caches have been placed to satisfy the craving and obsession among Geocachers. The race for First To Find status has caused frustration and amusement. Geocachers are hooked to their internet lifeline awaiting the next flash bulletin announcing the newest hide in their area. There upon, all else is immediately dropped and the mad dash is on.

THE RACE:

Eight individual FTF Madness caches, numbered 1 to 8 have been hidden near and far. They are to be treated as individual caches, not as a multicache. Those not interested in the race may choose to find any of these caches at their own pace. In order to be eligible for the FTF prize though, you must find all eight caches and submit to all the requirements. Read the descriptions and difficulty ratings carefully. Not all caches are kid-friendly. Frustration is likely, hints are few.

THE POINTS:

There will be a FTF prize. Qualification for the FTF prize requires the completion of certain conditions. You must find all eight FTF Madness caches in any order. You must have the highest aggregate point score. Points will be awarded only for the first eight finders of each cache. (There will be no joint FTF's in this series).

Scoring will be done according to this chart:
Ranking Points:

FTF .....8
2nd .....7
3rd .....6
4th .....5
5th .....4
6th .....3
7th .....2
8th .....1

There will be 2 log sheets in each FTF Madness cache, one log sheet with 8 spaces and a regular log sheet.  I, and I alone, will decide the final FTF winner, the prize, the time and method of delivering the prize. I will post the aggregate winner on each of the eight FTF Frustration web pages.

THIS CACHE:

Quick Traditional, may require stealth, may be wet at times.

Please copy the code included in the log book. It will be needed to complete a FINAL cache to be published later
