Hot, Hotter, Hottest Multi-Cache
Txnurse97: We were sorry that this one didn't see more activity, but both my parents and I will be using the areas for new caches in the near future!
Please note Use of geocaching.com services is subject to the terms and conditions

Some of you Texans will remember "Biking through Illinois and Texas." My parents (Bob and Kath) moved to Florida in December, so the Illinois-Texas cache had to be archived. Never fear, here's a Texas-Florida cache! And the rest of this is copied from "Biking through Illinois and Texas" which was copied from Bennet (thanks Bennet.)
This is not a typical multicache. This cache encourages cooperative efforts between fellow geocachers.
This is a three stage multicache. The first stage, hidden by Txnurse97, can be found at the coordinates above. That container holds coordinates for the second stage, located in the Venice, Florida area.
The second stage was hidden by Bob and Kath. The coordinates for the third stage will be found in this container. Stages 1 and 2 are micros. There are multiple slips of paper in each with the coordinates, but please don't take the last piece...just write the coordinates down.
The last stage is back in the Fort Worth area. It's a well stocked ammo can.
The difficulty level relates to how to go about doing this series--explained below. The terrain rating refers mostly to stage 3.
How does this work? A Texas cacher finds the first stage. Now he/she has the coordinates, but the location is in Florida. So the cacher finds the general location of the second stage by mapping, etc. and then tries to find a Florida geocacher to find the second stage.
The Florida geocacher finds that stage and contacts the Texas cacher who then goes to the third stage and finds the final cache. The Texas cacher signs the logsheet for both him/herself and the Florida cacher. Both cachers can then enter online finds for the cache.
There are some rules that need to be followed:
--The Texas cacher must identify, in his/her log, the Florida geocacher whom he/she teamed up with. That will be one team.
--Geocachers can only play once. Jim cannot team up with Mary to complete the cache and then later team up with John to complete the cache again.
--The Texas cacher who found the first stage must be the same Texas cacher who finds the third stage. No three person teams.
--No shotgunning. A Texas cacher must not be communicating with multiple Florida people simultaneously or vice versa. That's just wrong.
--Any team that attempts this cache is to find all the stages within the team. No providing coordinates to anyone outside their team.
--This must be a team effort. Jim cannot get the first stage, then fly to Florida to find the second, then fly back to Texas for the third stage.
The honor system is in effect for these rules. So, please be honorable.
If you run into trouble at any stage, please contact Txnurse97 for Texas and Bob and Kath for Florida for hints. Enjoy!
