Geocache Description:

Are you a member of the Mile High Club²?

Created by animjason



Now that the giggles are over and your mind is out of the gutter...
This is a Challenge Cache and the cache IS at the posted coordinates.
Neither "Mile High Club" cache may be used for this challenge.

The qualification for this challenge will be very easy for Colorado cachers; not so much for "flat landers". The terrain rating for this cache is based on the actual placement and not for the "challenge".
"I'm not only the owner of this Club; I'm also a member." ~ animjason


To qualify, all you need to do is find THREE CACHE TYPES that each have an elevation equal to or greater than TWO MILES (10,560ft) above sea level. Use the posted coordinates for Multi and Mystery/Challenge caches. They do not need to be found on the same day. Then, do the simple math to obtain the average elevation of these three caches. It's that simple... or is it?
You may use the Geocaching.com TOPO/Terrain maps or GSAK to get the elevations and post which caches you found and when, along with their elevation and their combined average elevation.

My list for Example:
1. Traditional: GC141NQ The Highest Cache in Colorado on 8-26-10 at 14422.6ft
2. Event: GC4D9Z1 Mt Elbert Flash Mob on 8-31-13 at 14422.6ft
3. Virtual: GC7C07 Top Of The World on 6-27-12 at 14252.0ft
Average Elevation: 14,365.7ft


HALL OF FAME
1. kenyansherpa: 22,215'
2. Team Dennis: 14,456'
3. hartsdale & SnailMan: 14,365.7'

Don't forget to grab my other Mile High Club Challenge!


There is an "Into The Wild" DVD for the FTF along with some random SWAG. You may sign this cache before qualifying, but please don't take the prize. Again, be careful at Ground Zero! The actual hide is very easy once you get there.

Special thanks to sassydil for providing the ammo can and doing the hike with me to place this!
