Geocache Description:

Dice 10,000

Dice 10,000 (or Dix Mille, 6-Dice, 10,000 Dice, Ten Grand) is the name of a family dice game, very similar to Farkle. It also goes by other names, including Zilch, Zilchers, Foo, Boxcar, Bogus and Crap Out.


The game requires six standard dice and a pencil and paper for scoring. Each player starts out "off the table" with a score of zero. Players collect points during their turn, and either add those points to their cumulative score, or continue rolling with the risk of losing all points accumulated that turn if a scoring combination is not rolled.

PLEASE BE CAREFUL with the containers and hide exactly as you found them. If the container is damaged or missing, DO NOT replace them!!!!!! As you can see there are special containers for this Geo Art! Please just log a DNF and move on.

This Geo Art series is in honor of all the games we played growing up that involve dice. There are 32 caches that make up the outer sides of the dice as well as the 2 center "Snake Eyes" This is the new and improved Dice Series Geo Art. In March 2017 while performing a maintenance run with all new containers, I discovered due to the harsh rains of winter some areas had been washed away. So since I was already upping the Difficulty, I needed to up the Terrain as well. So the old Dice Series was archived and 2.0 was born! 

For the most part all GZ's are the same, or off 3 - 6 feet. Again, if the container is missing, DO NOT replace them. There are special containers for this Geo Art! That is why the Difficulty is high. Please just log a DNF and move on. Logs from throw downs/replacements will be deleted!

This area is prone to various wildlife and other assorted desert creatures. While placing we saw rabbits, lizards and were attacked by fire ants. Remember, you are invading they're habitat! Please be considerate. I designed most of this series to be done by driving on roads and marked paths. DO NOT drive on unmarked areas.  The caches are NOT in anyone's front yard so please do not disturb those that live here.  They are aware of the series and don't mind as long as people are responsible and polite.

Also, make sure you have plenty of water especially in April through October as it gets very hot!
