Geocache Description:

This is not a typical Charlie's Cache Challenge!

Most of the Charlie's Cache Challenge caches are relatively easy - this one is a more challenging cache - you have been warned!

This cache is at the posted coordinates! The challenge is to find several caches with a combined star rating of 15 or more on the same day. Star ratings are calculated by adding difficulty stars and terrain stars together.

A 1.0/1.0 cache has 2.0 stars, a 2.5/3.0 cache has 5.5 stars and a 5.0/5.0 cache has 10.0 stars.

To log this cache, do the following:

1 - Find 15 stars worth of caches on the same day.

2 - Find this cache and sign the log.

3 - List your qualifying caches in the log when you claim this cache, with Date, GCxxxxx, Cache name, Difficulty Rating, and Terrain Rating. Your log should look like this:

9/9/2013, GC4AV4D, Charlie's Cache Challenge ~ 15 stars, 4.5/3.5
9/9/2013, GC3HEW3, Summer Wildlife - The Birds, 2.0/3.0
9/9/2013, GC3GJTK, Under a rock at: Northwest Park, 3.0/3.0
Total = 19.0 stars

4 - Put the total number of stars at the bottom. The total must be 15.0 or more.

* You can sign the cache log at any time but please do not log this cache as a find until all requirements have been met.
** You can use the stars from this cache to meet the star total if you found it the same day as you find the other caches. Just list it in the log.
