Please note Use of geocaching.com services is subject to the terms and conditions
in our disclaimer.
The above coordinates ARE the location of the cache. However, to log this cache as a find you must meet the “Challenge” requirements documented below. I was surprised at how few NHL Team Names are out there.
Your challenge if you so choose is to find at least 15 caches with different NHL Hockey Team Names in them. Not the city or state but the identity of the team (of course if you find a cache called the San Jose Sharks or Anaheim Ducks that would be perfect but not necessary the Sharks or Ducks will suffice).
In addition you can use the non plural of the words for teams such as “Ranger Rick” would qualify for the Rangers and “Coyote Bluff” would qualify for the Coyotes.
In addition to finding 15 different NHL Hockey Team names please find at least (4) different types of caches or categories (icons) when posting your finds. (Traditional, Multi, Unknown, Letterbox, Web, Virtual, Events. etc). This gives the challenge that extra star boost to the difficulty.
The NHL Hockey Team Names you can choose from are:
AVALANCHE, BLACKHAWKS, BLUE JACKETS, BLUES, BRUINS, CANADIENS, CANUCKS, CAPITALS, COYOTES, DEVILS, DUCKS, FLAMES, FLYERS, ISLANDERS, HURRICANES, KINGS, LIGHTNING, MAPLE LEAFS, OILERS, PANTHERS, PENGUINS, PREDATORS, RANGERS, RED WINGS, SABRES, SENATORS, SHARKS, STARS, THRASHERS, WILD
You have no time limit on finding the caches. In fact, you may have already completed the cache requirements. But, if you haven’t… now you have some target caches to find.
When logging this cache, list your requisite caches on the cache page with the cache name, gc#, date found, and type of cache as identified below:
