The cache is located at the given coordinates.  The cache is a small altoids container.  However, you must meet the requirements before you log the find.

10-9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1-blast off!!!!!

We have all heard those words associated with a rocket blastoff.  Now, you hear them with a cache challenge.  This challenge is to encourage people to leave the comforts of their local caching area and visit other state/countries and seek a variety of different caches.

All you need is the following:

Visit a state or country and find 10 different types of caches.  Then, you will need a different state/country and find nine different types of caches. Continue this for 8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1 different types of caches in eight more states/countries. This will total 55 caches in ten different states/countries.  All of the caches you have ever found count and all 17 cache types can be used.
