Geocache Description:

I am reactivating my challenge caches, but if the incorrect logging continues I will be forced to archive them.

READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY

  • If you log a find without following the logging requirements on the cache page your log will be permanently deleted.
  • If you log a find without meeting the qualifications for the challenge your log will be deleted, but you may relog it whenever you do qualify.
  • NOTE: Referencing Project GC as proof that you qualify DOES NOT meet the logging requirements for any of these caches. Project GC is not always right, and they have a disclaimer on their page stating that.

This is part of a series of challenge caches which are all about non-traditional cache types.  Some will be easy, and designed to introduce new cachers to these other cache types.  Others will be difficult for even the most experienced cachers.  Most will fall somewhere between these extremes.  Anybody may log any of the challenges, and may use new or old finds to qualify.  The only requirement is that you meet the challenge shown below.  The actual hides will be easy, the difficulty rating reflects the difficulty of the challenge.  The terrain rating is for the actual hide. 

This is the thirteenth challenge in this series.  This one is moderately challenging.  Please read the requirements carefully to be sure you qualify.

You may sign the log at any time, but you can only log the cache after you meet the requirements below.

To prove that you meet the requirements include a list in your log showing all the qualifying caches.  Your list must include the difficulty or terrain rating of the cache, GC number and cache name for each cache.  Use my list below as an example.  This cache requires 18 separate caches.


REQUIREMENTS:
THIS CACHE REQUIRES 18 SEPARATE CACHES TO QUALIFY.  YOU CANNOT USE THE SAME CACHE FOR 2 REQUIREMENTS

  1. Find an unknown (puzzle) cache that is rated at each of the difficulty levels 1-5 and one that is rated at each of the terrain levels
  2. Challenge caches cannot be used for any of the required caches

That's all there is to it, have fun!


Just a little personal note on this one: 

My caching buddy (Beerbatterbilly) and I both enjoy doing non-traditional caches, and we have made several runs together concentrating on them.  This cache was inspired by that.  Below I'm listing the caches I have found that show that I qualify for this one.  These are particularly special to me, because Bill and I did all of them together, and many of them have some pretty good stories to go with them.

Since we did these together, Bill is already qualified for this cache and does not need to post any further list for his caches.  Thanks for all your help with these puzzles.
