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 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 number 42 in this series, and it 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 all the qualifying caches.  Your list must include the GC number, cache name and cache type for each of the caches.  There are 5 caches needed to qualify. 


.REQUIREMENTS:
 

  1. Many cache titles contain invented words that start with the letters "GEO".  To qualify for this challenge you must find and log at least 5 non-traditional caches that contain words starting in the letters "GEO".
  2. The caches you use to qualify must be creative, invented words.  Therefore, you cannot use "GEOCACHE" or "GEOLOGY" or any words derived from those.  (examples: geocacher or geological).
  3. Any cache type may be used to meet this requirement except traditional caches, lab caches, locationless caches and temporary caches that are part of an event.

That's all there is to it, have fun!
