Historical Caches of Centre County Challenge Mystery Cache

HISTORICAL CACHES OF
CENTRE COUNTY
CHALLENGE

This is a challenge cache, the purpose of which is to encourage geocachers to go out and find those early Centre County geocaches that are still active. The geocache is hidden at the listed coordinates. To log this cache as found you must complete the challenge described below.

The requirements for completing this challenge:

1) Find 15 geocaches which were published before the 20th-oldest active geocache in Centre County, Pennsylvania. This may include archived caches.

2) Use the Project-GC Challenge Checker to verify that you qualify for this challenge

A few notes:

1) If any of the geocaches are owned by you, you may claim them on your list.

2) If any cache on the list is archived, then the next oldest active cache will be included. Once a cache is archived, a new 20th-oldest active cache will be recognized by the Challenge Checker. Any archived caches will still be allowed on your list of 15 caches to qualify.

3) The challenge checker includes archived cache finds in your list, even caches which were archived before the publication of this challenge.

4) A successful run of the Challenge Checker serves as your proof of qualification. The checker will provide a formatted list should you wish to copy/paste one into your log, however this is no longer required.

5) If you have not yet completed this challenge, you may still find the geocache and sign the log, but you may not log it as a find until you have successfully completed the challenge. Any found-it logs submitted without completing the challenge will be deleted.

6) I have posted a write-note demonstrating that I have met the criteria for this challenge

The Hide

The cache is hidden near a large SGL parking area. Although close to parking, please wear your orange during any hunting season. You are looking for a preform tube hidden roughly knee high. The actually rating for this cache is probably more like a 2/2, but the posted rating reflects the difficulty in accomplishing the task.
