Geocache Description:

A CHALLENGE OF LOGGING CACHES WITH 100+ FAVORITE POINTS.


The carels have been caching since March of 2004. This caching duo will have no problem meeting the requirements of this Challenge. They have completed the All County and DeLorme Challenges in many of the Eastern United States. They also own an FTF Smiley List which exceeds 600. So come help them celebrate this SUPER Milestone.

 


The Cache is at the coordinates listed above and is an ammo can, however you must meet the following conditions below to log this cache--

Conditions:

1) Successfully Log (10) caches that each have 100 favorite points or more.
2) Must have at least (4) different types of caches.
3) You may use caches you have previously found.

When you log your 10 caches please follow this format:

Cache Type - GC code - Cache Name - Date found - Favorite Points at present.

Here are some abbreviations for Cache Types: T=Traditional, U=Unknown/Puzzle, V=Virtual, E=Earthcache, M=Multi, L=Letterbox, W=Webcam,. etc.

The Favorite Point system is one of the best things that has come to Geocaching. Remember Favorite Points are still fairly new to Geocaching, so if you have experienced some cool caches from the past, please go back and honor them with a favorite point. Please add to your log a comment about your most favorite cache.

Also, if you do not qualify for the find your log will be deleted.
