Geocache Description:

A simple challenge - have a streak of 10 consecutive days in which you have found a multi cache. Well, maybe not as simple as it sounds, but once you've acomplished it you can come and do this multi to claim your smiley, and a great sense of accomplishment.


You are looking for a camoflauged micro container (a challenge can't be easy!). There is no room for swaps, and please BYOP.

Having earlier in 2013 completed the 100 days streak challenge, I kept going. Before placing this cache, I completed a set of 10 consecutive days of logging a multi, so I know it can be done. As of the date of placing, there were 128 active multi caches within 25 Kilometres of this location, so plenty to choose from. (Update as of Christmas 2017 there are now 188 active multis with 25Km)

Rules:

  • You must have logged 1 multi found on each day for 10 consecutive days.
  • You may find other caches as well, but at least one each day must be a multi.
  • Mysteries that are multis do not count - they must be listed on geocaching.com as a multi.
  • When logging your find here, you must also list the 10-day run with your log entry.
  • If you have your caches found hidden from view, then you must also post what those caches were that were found. If your statistics are viewable, then I will check the dates to verify your log is ok.
  • This cache cannot count as part of the 10 consecutive days (it wouldn't anyway, as a challenge cache must be a mystery type)

The starting point gets you to a good place to park. Then answer the following based upon your observations of the area around - you should not need to walk more than a couple hundred metres to get all the answers you need:

Cache can be found at S 41 0A.BCD  E 174 5M.NOP

A = # of letters in the second full word of the second line on the sign nearby

B = # horizontal blue bars - # flags

C = # red "fireman" poles

D = # swings - # tennis courts

M = # slide channels

N = # steps/4

O = (# handholds in the rock wall x # swings) - # yellow "fireman" poles

P = # holes in tunnel + # swings - # of full words on sign

Checksum=34
