Geocache Description:


The cache is at the Posted Coordinates. See qualifications below to post a log.

This is a challenge cache! The cache is at the posted coordinates. It is located in a nice rest stop and can be found at any time. 

 

In order to log this cache as a find, you will need to meet the requirements of the cache. REQUIREMENTS - Find at least one of six (6) different icons or cache types from the folllowing list: Traditional cache, Unknown cache, Virtual cache, Earthcache, Multi-cache, Letterbox hybrid, Event Cache, Webcam cache, Mega-event cache, Wherigo cache, Cache In Trash Out event. You can sign the log at anytime, but you need to meet the requirements before you can claim it as a find. Past finds count. You might already qualify for this challenge, so check your icons. These requirements can be proven/checked/varified by your statistics, or simply use the checker below. I wouldn't ask you to do anything I haven't done, as you can see by my statistics. Have fun finding the different icons and this little challenge cache at this rest stop in this awesome grove of trees.

You will wander through a Grove of the States to find the cache. Take your time to see which tree each State has selected for their State tree. This Grove is probably unknow and unnoticed by many. I discovered it for the first time while I was looking for a place to hide this cache. Hope you enjoy your tour of the Grove.
