Geocache Description:

THIS CACHE IS AT THE POSTED COORDINATES; HOWEVER, IT HAS SPECIAL LOGGING REQUIREMENTS. Please read below in order to log it. Please DO NOT sign the log if you have not met the requirements. Logs that don't meet the requirements will be deleted.
 


The idea for this cache is to get people out on the trails in Ketchikan.  In order to log this cache you must have logged at least 1 cache on 10 different trails.  Below is a list of trails to choose from:

  1.  Silvis Trail
  2.  Deer Mountain Trail
  3.  Rainbird Trail
  4.  Carlanna Lake Trail
  5.  Ward Lake Trail
  6.  Ward Creek Trail
  7.  Salvage Trail
  8.  Pipeline Trail
  9.  Frog Pond Trail
  10.  Coast Guard Beach Trail
  11.  Lunch Creek Trail
  12.  North Tongass Bike Trail
  13.  Perseverance Trail
  14.  Hollow Cedar Trail
  15. Lunch Falls Trail
  16.  Lunch Creek Trail
  17.  Dude Mountain Trail
  18.  Connell Lake Trail

Once you have logged 1 cache on 10 different trails you can go find this cache (you may use past finds in this challenge).  Since so many of the trails have caches at the trail heads, I am going to make you work for this one.  The cache is located approximately 3.3 miles down Connell Lake Trail (and no this does not count towards one of the 10).  When you submit your log please include the GC Code for each of the 10 caches that represent your trails.

Please do not log this cache as a find if you have not met the challenge and/or have not listed your qualifying caches in your log.
