Geocache Description:


This cache is at the posted coordinates.

Background

Welcome to my series of odd and miscellaneous challenges.

I first came across the concept for this challenge when I saw georode's series of challenges in Australia. Then I learned that credit for this very original challenge idea actually belongs to Tacimedes in Germany. I've listed both georode's and Tacimedes' challenge caches below in the Similar Challenge Caches section.

I subsequently reached out to Tacimedes to discuss "leveraging" the idea and I'm happy to report this challenge is published with his knowledge and blessing. In fact, he even created the Project-GC checker for this cache. Thank you again, Tacimedes!

The Challenge

To qualify for this challenge, you must find enough caches to have found the same 25 attributes on every day of the month (1-31).

In other words, find one cache attribute on every day of the month (1-31). Then repeat that for 24 more attributes for a total of 25 and you will have completed this challenge.

Any of the following 108 attributes (67 positive and 41 negative) can be used for this challenge -

The Requirements

Some more things about the challenge to be aware of:

  • All cache types except adventure lab caches and benchmarks can be used for this challenge.
  • The following attributes are excluded from this challenge - Needs maintenance Needs Maintenance, Partnership cache Partnership cache, and Lost and Found tour Lost and Found tour.
  • If a cache has multiple attributes, all of the attributes can be used for this challenge.
  • Only the day of the month the cache is found matters for this challenge. The month and year are irrelevant.
  • This is not a streak challenge in any way. The order you find the caches is irrelevant so they do not have to be sequential in any way.
  • Past finds count. Any caches that you have found and have been archived or disabled after you have found them can be used for this challenge if it meets the criteria.

The fine print

CO reserves the right to make any changes to this challenge if any issues or ambiguities are discovered. CO will be fair but has the final say on any events, caches, finds, or logs that are questionable. CO reserves the right to delete any logs if problems are found.

Finding This Cache

Please remember to be respectful of the cache location. Be aware of how and where the cache is "attached" so that it can be put back in exactly the same way and in the same place for the next person(s) to enjoy. Only the "inner" portion of the cache needs to be removed to log the cache. The container may not be accessible during the winter months.

Logging This Cache

As with any challenge caches, you are welcome to physically sign the log for this cache and log it as "Write Note" if you haven't met the challenge's requirements yet. Please bring your own pen(cil)/writing instrument to sign the log.

Please use this Project-GC challenge checker below to verify if you have qualified for this challenge.

PGC Checker

You can only log a "Found It" entry online after you've completed the challenge and signed the log. All non-qualifying "Found It" logs will be deleted without notice.
