Welcome to the 12 Days of Cachemas, brought to you by the Omaha Elves!
The Elves will publish 13 caches all over the Omaha metro area, one on each day from December 13-24, with the finale publishing on Jan. 2. This will give everyone extra time to search out the 12 Cachemas before the final publishes. You can expect a variety of types of hides, and keep in mind that the caches will publish at different times of the day. Some will be more challenging than others, but none will be higher than 2.5 in D or T.
This year it’s all about “Thank you, Cache Owners!” This game wouldn’t exist without the time, energy, creativity, and resources donated by cache owners. We elves want to thank some local COs for making geocaching in the Omaha area fun for the rest of us.
These caches will each contain an FTF prize in the shape of a collectible Christmas ornament. If you get an FTF and collect the ornament and get another FTF on another day, you can decide to leave the ornament for the STF or take it for yourself. The spirit of Christmas says let another geocacher have the joy of an ornament.
The object of the game is to get the coordinates to the final (13th) cache, which will be published on Jan. 2. Caches 1-12 will hold (taped to the lid) one digit of the coords to the 13th cache, which will be a puzzle.
There will be a FTF and STF prize in the final.
Mizz Piggy has given the Omaha area a swine time of piggy caches. She comes up with the best additions to her containers.. We all know she is also never far from her Bill the Bear. So this spot is a fitting area for the end of Cachemas.
Merry Cachemas from the Omaha Elves!
This is the last day of Cachemas. Did you find them all? Did you get all the codes inside for the final? The final will publish on January 2, 2022. Don't forget about lunch event on January 2nd, also.
