K-Pom Has A Very Traditional Challenge For You Mystery Cache

This cache has been archived.

DougyB: This series of 43 caches was put out to entice Kathy (K-Pom) to make some diversions from her daily commute across Highway 7 in order to do something she loved – geocaching. It was placed for fun, but also to honour a effervescent member of our caching community.

Sadly for us, Kathy left this earthly realm in April of this year. After much consideration, I have decided to archive this series, in part to free up space so that others may place more caches. I will be by over the coming weeks to collect the containers and log sheets.

I was very happy that Kathy was able to find all of these caches and that they brought many smiles to her face. Both Kathy and I loved all of the comments that were posted over the last 3+ years. Thanks to everyone who visited these caches.

Geocache Description:


I received an email from K-Pom one day, asking me how to use {certain PC-based caching tool} to determine if she had found one traditional cache for each calendar day of the year. I don't know much about {certain PC-based caching tool} and couldn't help K-Pom that way, but I did figure out how to check using {specific web-based caching site}. It turns out that I have found at least one traditional cache on each day of my caching calendar. I told K-Pom that this would be a great challenge and asked if I could publish it.

So, here it is... K-Pom Has A Very Traditional Challenge For You!

The cache IS at the posted coordinates! Parking coords have been added for those of you driving, and there are nearby transit stops if that is your mode of transportation. Do not try to stop your car alongside the cache...it is dangerous to do so and you will possibly get you a very large ticket. There is a paved sidewalk all the way to the GZ, and this cache IS wheelchair accessible.

To qualify for this challenge, you must have found at least 1 traditional cache on each of the 365 days of your calendar (excluding February 29 during leap years). The caches do not have to be found in the same year, and they do not have to be found in any order or as part of a streak. Traditional caches found anywhere in the world qualify, and the finds can be from any time before your found log date.

You are welcome to find the cache and sign the log sheet at any time. If you do so before qualifying, please post a note instead of a find. Once you qualify you are welcome to log a find. To verify that you qualify please use the Challenge Checker (see link below). See my qualification screen shot below.

Find logs for cachers that do not qualify will be deleted.
