Geocache Description:

Like the Richter earthquake scale, I wanted geo-cachers to have a place to experience a progressive increase in geocaching difficulty.
This one is 1.0 on the GC Scale - See if you can make it through all 4 levels at the same time - Have Fun!

If you are one of the F5TF (First 5 to Find ALL FOUR in a day) please email me and I will send you a special Eagle's View GC pin! (I will check the logs to verify) - Have Fun!

This one is a simple, very traditional geocache container. Hopefully it will not be discovered quickly by muggles. I needed to leave it out in the open to be a 1.0 on the GC scale (alright, it is a 1.5 because I had to cover it to hide it). Should be an FC, then continue to the second one just to the North of here. That one is a 2.0 on the GC Scale.

Note: No hints will be given on any of the 4 caches for this series. Also, they are not a multi-cache since you can do them individually. But try to do them in order for the most fun!

Congratulations to 7geese, Easton 2315 and Samantha1234 for being the F3TF!!! (And to Samantha1234 for finding these in the snow!! - Awesome!)
