Geocache Description:


This is a challenge cache. Cache is hidden at the given coordinates but you must qualify using the Project GC checker in order to log a find. You may sign at any time and use write note if you do not yet qualify or do not yet know if you qualify.

FLORA and FAUNA Challenge - the requirements are in the name.

You must find:

Minimum of 10 caches with the tree-climbing attribute

Minimum of 250 caches with the poisonous plants attribute

Minimum of 250 caches with the thorns attribute

PLUS

Minimum of 250 caches with the dogs attribute

Minimum of 250 caches with the ticks attribute

Minimum of 50 caches with the dangerous animals attribute

Minimum of 50 caches with the livestock nearby attribute

Minimum of 50 caches with the horses attribute

 

The difficulty rating of this challenge is based on how difficult it may be to find caches with the given attributes (not tough around here). The difficulty of the cache hide is a 1.5.

You can check your eligibility for this challenge using the online checker below.

PGC Checker

I made a shareable list of livestock attributes locally, since a bunch of prolific cachers told me they didn't yet qualify. It's here.

You MUST QUALIFY to log as a find. Following challenge rules, find logs can be deleted if cachers do not (yet) qualify via the online checker. You can always change your own log to a "write note" until qualifying.
