Geocache Description:

This Challenge Cache is borrowed from a cache we have seen on the Sumas Mountain Challenge Alley series.


The original challenge cache was a tiny bit easier than our cache requirements.  To be able to log this challenge cache as a find, you will need to head out and gather at least one of every container and non container type on the same calendar day.  The types of caches you will need to find and log area as follows:

Micro, Small, Regular, Large, Other (which looks like this - ?), Not Chosen (which looks like this - X) as well as a Virtual (the partial outline of a square box)

This challenge is not too difficult but it will take a bit of planning before you head out.  The caches you chose to get the required types does not matter for this cache.  As an example, the Earthcaches would use a not chosen symbol which you need as one of the seven types of caches.

This cache can not be used for your challenge requirements but you are welcome to find it on the same day that you find the other seven cache types.  Please list the seven caches that you use to complete this challenge and the size/type of cache that it fullfills.  As an example,

GCH66G - Regular

Any logs that don't meet the logging requirements will be removed from the list. Additonally, as per the Challenge Cache rules, all previous finds since the beginning of caching time can be used for this Challenge. If you have already completed this Challenge on a previous day out then congratulations!

The cache itself is slightly delicate and is best approached from the far side with care to not break the lid.  Please try to rehide it well so that it doesn't get noticed by trail users.  Parking is at the mailboxes on Sooke road with the trailhead about 120 metres to the east.  Look on Opencyclemaps to find the trail.
