Geocache Description:

NEVER CANCEL GEOCACHE CHALLENGE


Welcome to the Never Cancel Geocache Challenge (NCGC). This is one of 31 caches that were placed for a May, 2013 event. The event is over, but you can still take the challenge! More information about the event can be found here: http://coord.info/GC46YFX

First, grab a passport from the Contact Station as you enter the park. If the station is closed, try the Visitor Center. The passport explains the program and allows you to record your finds. Most caches in this series are micros – pill bottles, 35mm film canisters and bison tubes. There is one nano in the series. Bring your own pencil/pen to sign the log.

Each cache has a point value. Earn 15 points and receive a specially minted pin. There is a rubber stamp in each cache. Bring a felt marker to act as your stamp pad.

If you are taking the challenge, this cache is AVERAGE and is worth 2 points.

YOU'LL NEED 20 OUNCES OF WATER TO RETRIEVE THIS CACHE. Along the Taskinas Trail there are multiple overlooks.  From this one, you can see a nesting box for ospreys and also spot bald eagles and blue herons. The trail is rolling and might be muddy in spots, especially the first 1/4 mile or so. 

This cache needs special equipment to retrieve the container, so bring that water!
