Geocache Description:

The cache is at the coordinates, and an easy find, assuming you've met the REQUIREMENTS (see below)

This is for TOHiker, who set up some of the previous challenge caches and who is working on this milestone (or is it millstone? ) GetA/SetA #2 - following in the long gsmx2/OVC tradition, I'm setting this cache as a cache for the FTF I got on 100 Days of Caching Challenge cache a while ago, to create a FTF opportunity for another cacher (hmmm).

This cache in the CSU Channel Islands Park (formerly Camarillo Regional Park) area, and is less than a mile and a quarter from the nearest parking, outside the gate if it is closed, less if you park at the RC field. The cache is a camo'd plastic container, located on a high point (actually a local maximum) on the trail, but the trail does continue up!

Unregistered trackable for FTF, and a gold dollar coin for STF (or vice versa).

Requirements
I 'borrowed' some of the words for this from TOHiker (thanks, Jerry), who has hid the 50 days, 75 days and 100 days of caching challenge caches (all premium caches), and was the inspiration for this .

Consider this cache to be the bigger brother to GC3B3A2, "100 Days of Caching Challenge". This is a typical cache, but with a special challenge. The challenge is that you must log a cache a day for *one hundred and fifty consecutive days* prior to claiming this cache. This is not particularly difficult, but will require dedication and persistence (obsessiveness?). There is no time frame requirement for accomplishing the one hundred and fifty cache finds. That is, if you have ever had a stretch of cache finds for *one hundred and fifty consecutive days* in your caching career, you are eligible. Please post a snippet of your geocaching.com statistics page to verify you have accomplished the required number of consecutive finds. I have rated the cache at difficulty level 4-1/2 due to the preparation required to meet the challenge, not the hide (which is between 1-1/2 and 2).

Park is open from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. The gate is usually open on the weekends, but read the stipulations in the Flood Control cache description.

The current caching streak challenges in Ventura County/Western LA County are:
  25 days: Reach a Highpoint- 25 Days of GeoCaching Challengeby zdonb
  50 days: 50 Days of Caching Challenge by TOHiker
  75 days: 75 Days of Caching Challenge by TOHiker
100 days: 100 Days of Caching Challenge by TOHiker

Happy Caching! A cache a day keeps the doctor away
