Back at the Ranch ... Challenge Mystery Cache

This cache has been archived.

retiredprof: In light of geocaching's recent changes to the publishing rules, I am archiving all 150 of my challenge caches. I am a retired psychology professor, not a computer programmer. I am simply unable to comply with the new geochecker rules. I am sad that I have to do this. For those who have already begun any of my challenge caches, please note that you can still log archived caches. If you have any problems with this decision, please contact the geocaching authorities so that your suggestions may be considered.

Geocache Description:

The cache is located along the east side of the Feather River. Park at the yellow gate (394/654) and hike south on the levee. After .15 miles veer west onto the river trail, and be sure to note the logging requirements below.

I have noticed that many of the caches I find have the word "ranch" in the title. Now it's your turn. You must find 20 caches with the word "ranch" in the title. Plurals are NOT acceptable, nor the word "rancho" or any other variations or compound words. No lab or locationless caches or more than one cache from a series are allowed. Be sure to list five different types (icons) of caches in/on your list. After this nice stroll along the river, we can meet for coffee back at the ranch...
