Inspired by GC1QA9D An Alphabet Soup Challenge for Nevada by AD0OR (with permission)!
Those were the days. You walked home from school for lunch everyday. Mom had hot soup, a sandwich, and a glass of milk waiting for you. My favorite was alphabet soup. I would try to find all 26 letters and also spell words. Mom didn’t serve it often. She said that I dawdled too much and it got cold. (no microwaves back then). Well, now you can create a soup of caches you have found, one beginning with each of the 26 letters of the alphabet. Read on...
Ghost Town Alphabet Soup Challenge
The challenge: to find a Cache beginning with each letter of the alphabet.
To complete this cache:
1. Create a list of caches which includes one cache you have found for each of the 26 letters in the alphabet (the cache name must start with that letter).
This cache, since you haven’t found it yet, it doesn’t count – you will need another “G” cache. You must post your list in a log on the cache page in the following format :
A - Cache Name - GCXXXX - Date Found
B - Cache Name - GCXXXX - Date Found
C - Cache Name - GCXXXX - Date Found
D - Cache Name - GCXXXX - Date Found
etc....
Most important, HAVE FUN! This is a game.
2. Successfully find and log a cache beginning with each letter of the alphabet. The letter must be the first letter of the cache name. Examples:
- Zebra Stripes = Z
- The Zebra's Stripes = T
- Extra Zebras = E
- Xtra Zebra Stripes = X
- “Blurry Zebra Stripes” = ", so it doesn’t count for anything!
- 1 More Striped Zebra = 1, so it doesn’t count for anything!
- One More Zebra Stripe = O
The posted coordinates are the location of the cache. Anyone is welcome to visit, sign the log, take or leave trackables, etc...but no one may log a "Found it" on the cache page without having their 26-letter list posted in a log ("Found It" logs without completed lists will be deleted if lists are not provided within 2 weeks after the log is entered).
