Geocache Description:


This cache is placed as part of the Central New York Challenge Trail 2019.  There are 52 geocaches hidden along Route 11 for approximately 9.5 miles.

This cache IS at the posted coordinates and contains a log only, so bring your own writing instrument.  The physical log must be signed prior to posting your "Found It" log, and you must also have met the challenge requirements.  If you sign the log sheet before meeting the requirements, you may post a "Write Note" log stating that you have signed the physical log but don't yet meet the challenge requirements.  Once you satisfy the challenge requirements, you may then either post a new "Found It" log, or convert your original "Write Note" log to a "Found It" log.  Any "Found It" logs not meeting the challenge requirements will be deleted.

All hides are considered to be a D/T of about 1.5/1.5.   The D/T listed reflects the qualifications required to satisfy the challenge.

The Challenge for this cache is to have found the oldest active Geocache in at least ten (10) US States (Including DC).  Note:  A qualifying cache must be the oldest in the State at the time of your find, but if you have found a cache in the same State that was hidden prior to the currently oldest active cache in that State, and that cache has since been archived, that find DOES still count.

For verification purposes, there is a Project-GC checker below.
