Case of the Missing "G" ... Challenge Mystery Cache

This cache has been archived.

calico the pup: I agree with retiredprof. Groundspeak, with their new restrictive rules, has torn the heart and soul out of challenge caching. I am a simple puppy, not a computer programmer. I want nothing more to do with challenge caching...

Please note Use of geocaching.com services is subject to the terms and conditions in our disclaimer.

Geocache Description:

The cache is hidden 6 or 7 miles south of Marysville along Hwy 70, but is not accessible from the Hwy.  You must circle around to the frontage road (Plumas Arboga Road). This is a difficult placement...don't go alone or at night, and be sure to have special equipment.  You must be agile and sure-footed, or bring someone who is.

 

 


During my investigations as a private detective, I have uncovered many caches with a missing "G" at the end of a present participle word. Such as fishin', huntin', walkin', hikin', and cachin'. You must find 15 caches, each having an apostrophe'd missing "G" at the end of a word in the title. And each word must start with a different letter of the alphabet. No slang or foreign words, and all words must be available in my "Heritage College Dictionary." See my examples below.

Only one cache from a series is allowed, and no locationless, lab, or event caches are permissible. And be sure to include 5 different types (icons) of caches on your list.  Good luck with findin' these caches, and I hope you will be enjoyin' this challenge...
