How Geocaching Works

Please note Use of geocaching.com services is subject to the terms and conditions in our disclaimer.

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 cache is in the gamelands.  Please wear orange during hunting season.


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 challenge number25 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 the 12 qualifying caches.  Your list must include the GC numbers, cache names, cache types and the month that each cache was placed.



REQUIREMENTS:

This cache is a mini "Jasmer" challenge with a twist.  All caches used to qualify for this cache must be non-traditional types.


  1. Find and log a non-traditional cache that was placed in each month during 2008.  (12 caches needed to qualify for this challenge). 
  2. Here is how to determine the date you can use for your list. Go to your profile page, click on geocaches and select a cache type from the list. Click on the top of the column titled "placed". The date used in this column is the one to use for your list.
  3. Any cache type may be used to meet this requirement except traditional and lab caches.
  4. Your list must include at least 4 different types of non-traditional caches.  Once you meet this requirement, the rest of the caches can be any non-traditional type.


To verify that I have met these requirements, here is my list:

  1. January  GC18FZQ  Gorge Trail Earthcache   Earthcache
  2. February  GC19Q40  The Ohio River     Earthcache
  3. March  GC1A3VA   Queen Elizabeth Park Earthcache    Earthcache
