Geocache Description:

The cache is located at the given coordinates, however you must complete the challenge to log the cache as a find.

The Challenge
In order to log this cache as a find, you must first find and log a cache that begins with each of the 36 alphanumeric characters. The characters are A through Z and 0 through 9. Only the first character of the cache name counts, examples are as follows

"Fort Smith cache" - counts as NOTHING as " is the first character...does not count as a letter "F"
The Fort Smith cache - counts as a letter T
$2 cache hide - counts as NOTHING (starts with $, not a 2)
2 dollar cache - counts as a 2

The Documentation
To document your progress and your completion of the challenge, you must create a bookmark that includes each of the qualifying caches, along with this cache. Make the bookmark list public, so that it appears on this cache page. I have placed a Bookmark of my own qualifying caches as an example. Found logs without this documentation will regrettably have to be deleted.

Note: An easy way to check your progress is with the use of the GSAK caching program. Download a pocket query of your found caches (in the My Finds section of the My Pocket Queries page). Using GSAK, open a database of your found caches. You can then click on the Waypoint Name column and the caches will be sorted alphanumerically. If you aren't a premium member and can't do the gpx files, please just list your 36 caches in a note/log when you find the cache.

The Rules
• You may not count any cache that you have hidden or have ever owned, but I do ask that at least one cache on your list be found after this cache has been posted.
• There is no time frame for the cache finds, so if you like, all of your current finds count toward completing the challenge. This means that you may already have the challenge almost completed without even trying. But, you can always impose your own start date and start from scratch. I will leave that up to you, do whatever makes you happy. Remember that this is for the fun of it.

The Cache
The cache is a small lock and lock box under a pile of sticks behind a split tree just off the trail inside the tree line. There is a unactivated geojelly geocoin for the FTF'er......So hurry to get it!
