*This is a challenge cache. Find it any time, but to log it as found online or in the app, you need to complete the challenge first*
**The final container is a black bucket featuring a padlock. The 'hanging in the tree' stage has the lock combination inside**
The Oboist's challenge, if you choose to accept it, is to have found at least 30 combinations of Difficulty/Terrain, and day of the week the geocache was hidden. Your finds can be any type (except lab caches), any location, and found any date.
So for example, if you found a difficulty 1 terrain 1 (1/1) geocache that was hidden on any Tuesday and then another 1/1 hidden on a Wednesday, they both score you points. There is a max score of 567, but this is a beginner level challenge.
You can check to see if you qualify by using this checker below:
The 'hanging in the tree' stage is about 14' up the tree. A reaching pole is recommended. We are allowed to climb, but it's not an easy climb and not required, so don't plan on it. Make sure you put the 'hanging in the tree' stage back.
This is in a residential area and is placed with permission of the oboist landowner and with knowledge of the neighbors.
Please only attempt either stage during daylight hours.
The homeowner plays pieces of oboe sheet music that were written on all days of the week and is all sorts of difficulty and dynamics. It's kinda like this challenge itself.
