Geocache Description:

Please read the description below for logging requirements for this challenge cache. The cache is NOT at the posted coordinates. This cache is located near Grand River Avenue and Halsted Road. There is plenty of unused parking nearby.


You are expected to physically sign the log sheet in order to log your find on-line.

The cache is at the final coordinates. The difficulty rating on this cache is set based on the qualifications of the challenge. The cache itself is pretty straightforward.

It seems that most of the challenges are on the east side, not always an easy side trip to make for me. I thought it was time there were a few more challenge caches on the west side. I also thought it would be good to have some different types.

The challenge for you to complete is to find a cache with a placed date for each day of the calendar, including February 29. This is not the date you found the cache, it is the date it was hid.

The Logging Requirements:

  • Find at least one cache placed on each of the 366 days in the calendar, including Leap Day (February 29th). This cache does NOT count towards that goal.
  • You will need to find 366 different caches.
  • All cache types count. For events, the date the event is held is what counts not when it was listed.
  • Sign and date the log individually.
  • Post qualification as described in the listing below within one week of logging.
  • Qualification needs to occur before finding the cache. “Prefinding” of this cache is not allowed.
  • Any logs not following the requirements above will be deleted.

You can demonstrate your qualification through several means. You can post results from the following challenge checker GC33JAA - 366-Challenge-Finds by date placed. You could post a link to published statistics with a completed matrix. You could also post a screenshot of a completed matrix. Less ideal would be to create a bookmark list or to post a text listing, although that would certainly boost your average words per log count.

Here is my own incomplete example:
Finds By Placed Date

You can also use this Project-GC challenge checker. If so, please cut & paste the entire example log.
PGC Checker

Please be sure to restore the cache to its hiding place in a similar condition. Please bring your own pencil or pen.
