Early in 2013 I recorded my 1000th cache find, and felt I needed to do something special to give back. A simple cache seemed inadequate, so I have come up with a three tiered series of challenges designed to encourage new cachers to get more involved, and to give the veteran cachers a smile or two (I hope). Each challenge gets a bit harder, and you will need the clues of the first tier to solve the second, and those of the second tier to solve the third.
This is the last level of the challenges. Before you can claim this cache, you must have reached a total number of cache finds equal to or greater than 1000. Also, of these one type must have at least 200 finds, and a second type must have at least 100 finds, and a third type must have at least 25 finds. Types include traditional, multi, mystery, earthcaches, events. etc. This is part of the "well-rounded cacher" described in the title. I will check the Statistics tab as needed on your caching profile to ensure you have met the requirements of this challenge. Anyone logging this without meeting the requirements will have their log removed.
Simply solve this puzzle based on the clues you gathered in level 2:
