Geocache Description:

Our state has historically been divided into the Three Grand Divisions of Tennessee". The boundary between East Tennessee and Middle Tennessee is the Cumberland Plateau while the Tennessee River demarcates the boundary between Middle and West Tennessee. It only seemed fitting that each division of the state should have its own version of the major challenges. So, we present the Fizzy Challenge, Middle Tennessee Edition.


Cache is at the posted coords, but you must read the cache page for requirements to log this cache.


To be able to claim a find on this cache, you will need to first find at least one cache of every difficulty/terrain combination (81 unique combinations). As part of those finds, you'll need to have at least one of each of the cache types below (the different cache types DO count against the 81, so if you find a 2.5/2.5 multi-cache, it fulfills both requirements.) I've excluded APE caches and MEGA events as they are few and far between and Locationless Caches as they've been phased out:

Earthcache - EarthCache
Event Cache - Event Cache
Letterbox Hybrid - Letterbox Hybrid
CITO Event - Cito Event
Multi Cache - Multi Cache
Traditional Cache - Traditional Cache
Unknown Cache - Unknown Cache
Virtual Cache - Virtual Cache
Webcam Cache - Webcam Cache




Basic rules (to keep things easy):
- All PREVIOUS cache finds DO count - you do NOT start from "0" at this point
- "Liar caches" or obviously misrated caches DO NOT count toward this challenge. Completing this challenge is about accomplishing something real, not having your buddies hide misrated caches for you to log. The reason this one is tough is that some of these D/T combinations will require you to travel to find them and push your own limits. Please honor the intent of this challenge and EARN it.
- No rating changes of existing caches will be accepted as counting towards your goal
- Generally accepted rules, guidelines and conditions for logging a cache find apply
- These must be caches listed on Geocaching.com that you have personally (physically) found and logged
- If you have others with you when you find the final cache, only those who have fulfilled ALL criteria for this cache will be allowed to log it as a find.
- Finds without the proper verification will be deleted
- This cache does not count as the 5/5 in the matrix. You must find a 5/5 before this one

Please keep to these simple rules to keep things fun for everybody.

In order to log this cache, you may verify your qualifications using the Challenge Checker linked below. The real challenge here is in qualifying to be able to log the cache, we prefer to not make verifying this a challenge in itself. Naturally, if it is discovered that you do not qualify to log the cache your w log will be deleted.
