This cache IS hidden at the posted coordinates. However, you may only log it if you qualify for the challenge. You must prove you qualify for the challenge either by creating a bookmark listing, doing a screen shot of a stats page, or by putting your list in your log. The cache is a nano (as of 10/11/2020). Due to construction in the area, the original cache location was destroyed. I found a spot near original location that should remain intact.
To log this cache, you must have found the oldest unarchived cache in 5 (five) different states. The District of Columbia (DC) can count as one of the five. Cache type does not matter. It must simply be the oldest unarchived in the state. There are several ways of finding out which cache is at present the oldest cache in each of the 50 states and DC. There are multiple bookmark listings to refer to on any of the oldies' cache pages. For example, see Beverly's cache page (GC28). You should note that there are some conflicts on which cache is the oldest in a state. For this challenge's purpose, we are going by the date hidden on the cache page. For example, Indiana's oldest unarchived cache is said to be Indiana's First (GC93) by some and Turkey Run Stash (GCC6). Indiana's First was hidden 10/23/00. Turkey Run Stash was hidden 11/25/00. Thus, Indiana's First (GC93) will be considered the oldest unarchived cache in Indiana. If you are uncertain on a cache, please e-mail me and I will research and check for you. I have found the oldest cache in 9 states. They are: Ohio - GC31A - Shawnee Lookout Cache Kentucky - GC39E - Tom Sawyer DC - GCDE1 - Capitol View Nebraska - GC943 - Go Big Red Kansas - GC30 - Mingo Missouri - GC37 - Missouri's First - Watts Mill Illinois - GC28 - Beverly Indiana - GC93 - Indiana's First Pennsylvania - GC184 - State Game Lands #109. Original terrain was a 1 - at present it may still be for some so I'm going to leave it at that.
