I feel we have too many traditional caches in Israel. Often they are banal, and without any special target or story behind them.
An inventory of Israeli caches, as of September 1st, 2014:
(Including disabled and archived caches)
- Traditional: 1278
- Unknown: 110
- Multi: 84
- Event: 25
- Earhcache: 13
- Hybrid: 5
- CITO: 5
- Whereigo: 1
- Virtual: 1
Use the challenge checker to check if you fulfill the challenge:
What are Challenge Geocaches? You can read about them here.
Who can log this cache? What do you need to do?
You need to collect 30 or more points by finding or hiding (with publication) several geocaches in Israel. Only caches found/placed after the 1st of September 2014 will be considered. For each cache you will earn a certain number of points for the cache type and also a certain number of points for its Terrain/Difficulty rating (see table below). The point system is designed to encourage you to pursue rarer cache types and T/D combinations. So if your cache's T/D rating is not listed in the table, it means that it is common, and you will not get any points for it. When hiding a cache, please make sure to give it accurate ratings, and not be tempted to give it a more "desirable" rating then is deserves, as this will disqualify it.
Examples: Finding a 1.5/5.0 traditional cache will earn you 0 points for Type, and 1 point for Rating. And if you hide a multi-cache with a 1.0/2.5 rating, you will earn 3 points for Type, and 0 points for Rating.

The container is located at the posted coordinates. Your log must include a list of your found and hidden cache names, their GC codes, and the number of points you got from each one. If you have not collected enough points, your log will be deleted.
The FTF (First To Find) is open for everyone, include the local reviewer and me!
