How Geocaching Works

Please note Use of geocaching.com services is subject to the terms and conditions in our disclaimer.

Geocache Description:

This is a challenge cache; please read all requirements first.

The cache IS at the posted coordinates. However, to log this cache as found, you must:

  1. Sign the log at the posted coordinates
  2. Have found at least 13 of any single cache type on a single calendar day, excluding Traditional Caches.

Official Rules

  • Found caches must have been listed and logged on geocaching.com
  • The 13+ cache finds you use must have been found on a single calendar day; finds that span a single 24 hour period over 2 days will not count.
  • Other caches and cache types CAN be found on that calendar day; the challenge only requires that you find 13 or more of a single type. All other activities on this day are entirely up to you.
  • Other than traditional caches, ANY single cache type counts. Only a few cache types are currently included on the leaderboard, but all cache types (past, present and future) count for this challenge (except traditionals!). For example...If you attended 13 CITO Events in one day, that's awesome, and you've fulfilled the challenge requirement. A new line will be added to the leaderboard with your name on it.
  • This cache does not count towards your 13.
  • If you've completed this challenge more than once, you may only log this cache as "found" one time.
  • I reserve the right to change any rules at any time.


Feel free to demonstrate this requirement any way you see fit:
- A GSAK filtered image
- Bookmark list
- Screen shot of filtered found caches on geocaching.com
- etc...

The difficulty rating reflects the challenge, not the final hide, which I would consider to be about a 2.0.

Please post a note to the cache page or contact me directly for any clarifications needed to the challenge rules.

This cache is located on State Game Lands. Please be familiar with the Game Lands Regulations that apply in this area. A fluorescent orange hat and vest is required November 15 through December 15 except on Sundays. Hunting occurs other times throughout the year as well. Please check the Game Commission Web Site for more information.
