Geocache Description:

Good news; the cache is at the posted coordinates...


To log this challenge, you have to have found 5 different types of caches with a Difficulty / Terrain rating of 5/5. The actual hide is a 1/1.5. The stars are earned in the qualification of this challenge.

 


I haven't actively gone out and pursued most of the 5/5s that I've found. A lot of them have been found solely because I have been lucky enough to be a part of a group or event that has wanted to tackle them. One or two of them I attempted without knowing in advance that they were a 5/5. Most of the unknowns are challenges that I've qualified for and was lucky enough to be in the area to log them. Only a few were tackled alone and actively targeted by me to find, and that includes the last one I did, a 5/5 Letterbox Hybrid. It turns out that this was the 5th type of 5/5 (I like that the numbers are all the same!) that I have logged so I thought that there might be a challenge in the area I could log. No such luck so I decided to go ahead and publish one for others in the area.

Please specify in your online log the cache types found in the same general format as mine. Here are my 5 types of caches I've been fortunate enough to find in the 3 1/2 years I've been doing this.

I did a pocket query from my home coordinates and managed to find 5 5/5 Wherigos and 2 5/5 Virtuals but am currently unaware if there are any 5/5 Webcams.
