The cache IS at the posted coordinates.
The Challenge
Find nine caches in a single day. These nine caches must have nine different difficulty ratings (1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 3.5, 4, 4.5, and 5) and at least five different cache types (i.e., icons).
The Details
-
Only these cache types can be used for your nine qualifying finds: Traditional, Unknown, Multi-Cache, EarthCache, Letterbox-Hybrid, Virtual, and Whereigo.
-
You can find more than nine caches during the day.
-
The single day runs from midnight to midnight.
-
You cannot include this cache among your nine qualifying finds. You also cannot include the “Brass Cap Cache” (GC43F3), since its difficulty rating constantly changes.
-
Normal geocaching conventions apply. You cannot find your own caches. Use the proper dates for your find logs. Etc.
Logging this Cache
You can sign this cache’s physical log sheet at any time – before, during, or after your qualifying day. But do not log an online “Found It” until you’ve signed this cache’s physical log sheet and shown that you’ve met the challenge requirements. We’ll delete any premature “Found Its.”
If you sign the physical log sheet before you complete the requirements, then you can log an online “Write Note” to help you remember this fact.
Providing Proof
One of the things you must do before claiming an online “Found It” is show that you’ve met this challenge’s requirements. You can do this in various ways, but you must include (at a minimum): (1) the date you found the qualifying caches, (2) a list of nine GCCodes, (3) the difficulty rating of each of those nine caches, and (4) the cache type (i.e., icon) of each of those nine caches.
-
For example, you could create a publicly viewable bookmarks list.
-
Or, you could include the list as part of your online log. For instance, here’s a full list of our nine qualifying finds:
On July 16, 2011, we found these caches:
GC53E4 - D1.0 - *Virtual
GC2ZJ2T - D1.5 - *Wherigo
GC2ZKGG - D2.0 - *Traditional
GC2ZPGV - D2.5 - *Multi-Cache
GC27XWF - D3.0 - *Letterbox-Hybrid
GC2ZKVN - D3.5 - *Unknown
GC2ZKX8 - D4.0 - Unknown
GC2HAC8 - D4.5 - Unknown
GC2FEB3 - D5.0 - Unknown
-
Or, you could use third-party software to create your list and upload an image of that list to your online log. For instance, here’s a full list of our nine qualifying finds:
