Geocache Description:


This is a CHALLENGE Cache. The Cache IS at the Posted Coordinates but you MUST complete the challenge before logging a find.

This is a challenge - it is not meant to be easy. This challenge is not going to be for all cachers - but then again, that's why its called a challenge!

Challenges or “challenges” can be accepted or not, it is your own choice. Challenges come in different levels of difficulty, from very easy to real physical exertion.


This is a series of challenge caches along Fairfax County's Holmes Run Stream Valley Trail.

To log this cache, you must find a mystery cache for each of the 81 different difficulty/terrain combinations in the Fizzy grid.

HRCCT - MYSTERY FIZZY CHALLENGE

As geocachers, we love accomplishments. Challenge Caches give us that goal to achieve. Before you lies The Holmes Run Challenge Cache Trail (HRCCT). There are caches for the newbies and veterans out here but this is no power trail.

The Challenge

To qualify for and be able to log a find on this challenge cache you must meet the following requirements:

  • To log this cache as found you need to have found a mystery cache for each of the 81 different difficulty/terrain combinations in the Fizzy Grid.
    • The Fizzy Grid has the 81 different combinations for Difficulty and Terrain for geocaches. This challenges is to use only Mystery (Blue Question Marks) to fill thae Fizzy grid.
  • Reminder - You can use only Mystery cache types for this challenge.
  • The caches may have been found in different years.
  • Of course you can place a "write note" if you have found the cache, but do not yet meet the requirements. Then you can still place a found later if you meet the requirements (preferably mentioning the date log note).

    4.5/2.0

    Rules for the challenge caches in this series:
    1. As with all caches, the decision as to whether a log is valid rests solely with the cache owner.
    2. We have provided a verification tool.

      For the verification of this challenge there is a Project-GC checker. It is a very useful checker, with which you can see exactly what you have already found.

    3. You may sign the log before completing the challenge. If you have do this, please use a "Write note" log to record your find and then a "Found it" log once you have completed the challenge.
    4. Your log does not need to contain enough information to prove you have met the challenge - that can be determined from the Project-GC checker. I suggest you use the verification checker on this cache page to prove you have met the challenge. Please do not provide the entire output of the checker as it can sometimes be quite verbose.
    5. I may double-check your qualifications with the Project-GC checker after you have logged your find.
    6. Any finds that do not qualify for this challenge or lack a signature on logsheet will be deleted without notice.
