Geocache Description:


This cache is at the posted coordinates

Here are the rules for the challenge (borrowed from the original cache page. Thank you!): 

 


Examples to get you started:

  • You head out with your family, all of whom have individual Geocaching accounts. (Your significant other and two kids)  You guys find a few caches while on a hike. This counts as THREE other cachers that you have found a cache with.

  • You go caching with another husband and wife caching team. They cache together under one name called PeanutsParents. This counts as ONE other cacher that you have found a cache with.

  • You meet up with your caching buddy and head out for a bike ride. You find a good number of caches while out and about. This counts as ONE other cacher that you have found a cache with.

  • You are out caching when someone walks up on you and asks, "Are you looking for a geocache?" Turns out that they are a cacher too who you just happened to meet while on the hunt. You both find the cache, sign the log and part ways. This counts asONE other cacher that you have found a cache with. (Note: If it was a DNF, it does still count. The point is to meet other cachers and make new friends. However, you both MUST post a DNF on that cache on the same day to prove that you actually met by a mention in your log.)

  • You are caching ON THE WAY to an event and run into a group of four cachers in the parking lot at a cache. (Not the event cache) This counts as FOUR other cachers that you have found a cache with.

  • You are at an event and make arrangements to go and find a cache away from the event with 2 other cachers. In the parking lot or not, this counts as two other cachers that you have found a cache with.

  • You are out caching with two friends and they want to find a cache you hid, you stop and they find it. this counts as two other cachers that you have found a cache with.

  • As an introduction, you take someone out to introduce them to Geocaching. By the end of the day they are “hooked” and create an account and log their finds. This counts as ONE other cacher that you have found a cache with.


Other Rules/Requirements:

  • You must find, or attempt to find caches with at least 100 DIFFERENT cachers.  They do not need to be all at the same time.

  • Your list of friends must be comprised of real cachers with real Geocaching accounts.  No sock puppet account can be used. Caching with "non-cachers" does not count, unless you convert them to geocachers as described in the example above.

  • In your logs for a cache, found or DNF, you must mention who you searched with or met at the cache site.

  • Event, CITO, Mega Event or other gatherings for events do not count.  Only, in the field, available to everyone, at any time, type caches count.

  • You must have been with that other person in the field and signed the log together. No armchair finds count for this one.

  • Note on Puzzles: One of you solved the puzzle, great. You must both go out together and find the cache at the same time.


Logging Requirements:

  • In your found log for this challenge you must list your 100 friends and the caches you found with them,



     

  • Your list of cachers must consist of 100 DIFFERENT caching names. You may have cached with couples or even families that all cache under one account. In these instances, they count as ONE cacher name in your list. Example: Mom the Cook & cashnhubby = ONE cacher name.

  • You can sign the log at any time but can not claim your find until the above requirements have been met.
