This challenge requires you to have found at least 1 of each of the 7 cache sizes that is at least 8000 Days Old!

This challenge will get easier and easier every day...as long as you have found some old caches!

Please make sure you complete the challenge BEFORE you log this cache as a find.

 

This cache is at the coordinates listed, and you can sign the log prior to completing the challenge. BUT you cannot successfully log this cache as a find until you have completed the challenge requirements!

Please use the attached Checker to determine if you qualify!

As of December of 2024, I can go back to October 2017 and have found at least 25 caches each of those months. Am I obssessed with this hobby?

If you log this as a found cache without fulfilling the requirements your log will be deleted!

 

Please remember if hiking to take lots of water and bug spray, and don’t confuse the two!

 

To get to this cache you have a few options:

  1. You can go straight up power line road, but I don’t advise this as there is a water crossing that is fairly wide and deep. Some have made it across okay, but I doubt they would do it again.
  2. You can take the power line road to the hiking trail turn off to the South and follow it around to the horse trail and take that back North to the power line again.
  3. You can bike/hike from Ranch House Road up around Bee Island and back down to this cache on the power line road.
