Geocache Description:


 

Pi Day is March 14:

Pi Day is an annual celebration of the mathematical constant π.  Since 3, 1 and 4 are the first three significant figures of π (3.14). Pi Day is observed on March 14.

The saying "pie in the sky" is used to describe an idea or plan that is unrealistic or unlikely to ever happen. To relate this to geocaching, we often set goals for ourselves that contribute to our geocaching statistics which inevidably helps us to meet the requirements of various challenge caches.  

The Final Coordinates:

No puzzle solving is required since the container is located at the posted coordinates.

The Challenge:

To qualify for this challenge cache, you must have found at least the following number of caches over your geocaching career with D/T combinations that correspond to the constant π (3.14159):

>= 3 caches with D/T of 3.0/3.0 
>= 14 caches with D/T of 1.0 / 1.0
>= 1 cache with D/T of 4.0 / 4.0
>= 59 caches with D/T of 1.5 / 1.5

AND

>=9 Caches with the "Challenge Cache" attribute selected 

 

The Rules:

  1. You must use the Project-GC Challenge Checker (link below) to verify your qualifications.
  2. You may sign the physical log at any time, but you can only log a "found it" once you have met the challenge requirements.
  3. While not required for the find, we encourage you to share a screenshot in your log of your qualifying stats from Project-GC.
