Geocache Description:


25 in 2025
(John T Slavin)


2025 will mark the 25th Anniversary of Geocaching. As part of the 25th Anniversary Celebration, GCHQ distributed credits to host a Community Celebration Event (CCE). One of the requirements to obtain a credit was to host an event in 2024, which wasn't an issue for the IE Cachers. Another requirement is to place a cache in 2024. We placed 11 and now we're in 2025 so here's our 13th. Who knows there might be more!



This is a Letterbox Hybrid Cache. A letterbox is another form of treasure hunting using clues instead of coordinates. Once a letterbox is found instead of signing a log book, you place your stamp mark in the letterbox's log book and place the letterbox's stamp into your own log book.

In some cases such as this, a letterbox hybrid has coordinates, making it a letterbox and a geocache. You can leave your stamp and get the cache's stamp in your own log book as in letterboxing, or you can simply sign the log book as in geocaching.

This letterbox hybrid contains:
- A log book. BRING YOUR OWN PEN.
- A rubber stamp. BRING YOUR OWN INK PAD.
PLEASE LEAVE THEM IN THE CACHE!!

This LBH is NOT at the posted coordinates!!

To find this LBH you have two options:

1) From the posted coordinates head 187° south approximately 0.14 to the old stump. Once there look for the cache's hiding place underneath it.

OR

2) Subtract 123 from the posted north coordinates.
Add 25 to the posted west coordinates.


Congratulations to LLCOOL for being First to Find!!
