Geocache Description:


This is a challenge cache that IS posted at the above coordinates.  You must first meet the requirements described below in order to claim a smiley for this cache.

This is the "3385 Challenge" cache based on favorite points that have been awarded to caches.   If you like road trips and search out popular caches, you may find you qualify for this cache.

It's quite simple to find out if you do.  Click on your profile and review all your found geocaches.  Then click on the blue ribbon to sort them in order from greatest to least awarded favorite points.  Total up the number of favorite points on the first two pages of your found list, (40 caches), and if the total number of favorite points is equal to or more than 3385 favorite points, then come sign this for a smiley!  Why 3385?  Because that is what I had at the time this cache was published.  Post the total of the two pages in your log, and maybe mention what your favorite one was if it was one of those 40. I'll keep a banner of the leader each time a new high is reached, once you sign the log.  I'm certain many of you will far exceed mine!  Anyone claiming this that does not meet the requirement will quietly have their claim removed.  Sorry!

I love to travel.  I've been geocaching for about 2 years and hope to do more traveling and claim some more of the high-favorited caches.  They've brought our family to some original caches, interesting locations, and just plain fun and unique geocaches.  If you don't qualify for this cache, I hope you become interested in some of the highly rated caches in other areas.

I think my personal favorite was Beverly, GC28, which is the oldest geocache in IL. It turns out I grew up just a few miles from there and the find was in one of my favorite locations....among pine trees with soft pine needles all around.

THE ACTUAL CACHE:

It's a park & grab with parking all around.  It's in a busy location with businesses surrounding it so please be stealthy.  You're searching for an alroids container jar in the bushes.  If you're standing with your back to the carwash, it's best accessed from the carwash lot in the bush on the left, but you can enter GZ with your geo-transportation from any direction to park.  Container is a camo pill bottle.

Congrats to geoCATing for FTF Honors!!!

Diggin' Up Bones has the most awarded favorite points with a whopping 33,419! Congratulations!
