Geocache Description:

I am reactivating my challenge caches, but if the incorrect logging continues I will be forced to archive them.

READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY

  • If you log a find without following the logging requirements on the cache page your log will be permanently deleted.
  • If you log a find without meeting the qualifications for the challenge your log will be deleted, but you may relog it whenever you do qualify.
  • NOTE: Referencing Project GC as proof that you qualify DOES NOT meet the logging requirements for any of these caches. Project GC is not always right, and they have a disclaimer on their page stating that.

This is part of a series of challenge caches which are all about non-traditional cache types.  Some will be easy, and designed to introduce new cachers to these other cache types.  Others will be difficult for even the most experienced cachers.  Most will fall somewhere between these extremes.  Anybody may log any of the challenges, and may use new or old finds to qualify.  The only requirement is that you meet the challenge shown below.  The actual hides will be easy, the difficulty rating reflects the difficulty of the challenge.  The terrain rating is for the actual hide. 

This is challenge number 46 in this series.  This is one of the most challenging caches yet in the series.  Please read the requirements carefully to be sure you qualify.

You may sign the log at any time, but you can only log the cache after you meet the requirements below.

  To prove that you meet the requirements include a bookmark list showing all the qualifying caches.  Include this cache on the list as well.  If you do not use bookmark lists you may email me a list as a Word or Excel document.  If you use that method please wait until I have verified the finds to log the cache.  Your list must include the GC numbers, owners names, cache names and cache types that you are using to qualify for the challenge. If all else fails you can add the complete list in your log.


REQUIREMENTS:
  1. Find and log a cache whose owners name begins with every letter of the alphabet (26 caches need to qualify).
  2. You must use only non-traditional caches to qualify.
  3. Any cache type other than traditional, lab and locationless may be used.


To verify that I have met the requirements of this cache, I have added a bookmark list to this page.  This was my toughest one yet to qualify for.  I only recently got the last letter I needed (Y).



That's it.  Have fun!
