Geocache Description:


At the request of Queen of Scotts, I am placing another ABC-123 Challenge.

This one is for the CACHE NAME, not the owners name.

This cache is located at the given coordinates; however you must complete the challenge to log this cache as a find.


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

• Li’l AL – counts for the letter L
• (mle) – does not count, as ( is the first character. Sorry (mle).
• 5somewhere – counts for the number 5
• #1ACE – does not count, as # is the first character

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 the name in the comments. Make the bookmark list shared (not public), so that it does not appear on every cache page and then place a link to the bookmark in your log. 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 or Mygeocachingprofile.com. 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 "Cache Name" column and the caches will be sorted alphanumerically by the cache name.

The Rules
• This one is meant to be fun so I’m not making a whole lot of rules. But, there are a few.
• You may not count any cache that you have hidden or have ever owned.
• There is no time frame for the cache finds, all of your current finds count toward completing the challenge.
• All qualifying cache names must have been activated prior to July 4th, 2012. This will be confirmed from the caches Publish date on the page. This rule may be relaxed upon proof that a sock puppet account was not created to meet a specific character requirement.
• You must have fun while completing the challenge. No fun = No smiley.


The Cache
The cache is a cammoed water bottle hidden in the CVGA forest of challenges!
