Geocache Description:

This is yet another challenge cache.

Geocaching has come a long way since the first five gallon bucket buried in the ground. But sometimes it's nice to go back in time and see how caches were hidden ten plus years ago.

Hopefully someone will find this challenge interesting enough to undertake. I love first old caches with two alphanumerics or less - GCxx. Read on for the challenge and requirements. It's interesting to see how caching was when these caches were placed ~10 years ago.

The cache is at the posted coords.

In order to log this cache as a find. Find, sign and log ten of the oldest eighty-eight oldest active geocaches. Then list them in your found log.

Date found - GC# - Cache name
04/06/2007 - GC12 - Beaver Cache

Rinse and repeat ten times. Simple right?

The eighty-eight oldest active geocaches are listed here: (visit link)

GCGV0P ORIGINAL STASH TRIBUTE PLAQUE © (visit link) is also a good place to visit and can be used as one of the ten required caches.

Good luck and enjoy the journey,
