Geocache Description:


This is a challenge cache. The cache IS at the posted coordinates.

There is the Alphabet Soup Challenge for Illinois, the Alphanumeric Challenge - Cache Owner Name and A Bigger Bowl of Alphabet Soup Illinois Challenge.

But what if you have been working hard on Speaking Non-Traditionally? And now you have a stockpile of Non-Traditional caches in your Find list. Can you find one for every letter of the alphabet? This cache was inspired by another I qualified for and found in Iowa.

In order to log this cache, you must have completed the following requirements:

 

The Requirements:

1) You must have found 26 non-traditional caches that begin with a different letter of the alphabet.

2) Five of the seven allowed non-traditionals in the rules below must be represented.  Therefore, you cannot use 26 Mysteries only or 26 Letterboxes only, etc...

3) Either bookmark the 26 non-traditional caches or list them alphabetically in your online log.

 

The Rules:

1) The caches you choose to bookmark or list can only be non-traditional caches of these seven types (mystery, multi, earthcache, virtual, letterbox, wherigo or webcam) Events do not count (no mega, cito or regular event).

2) You have to represent at least five of the above seven allowed non-traditionals in your list.

 

The Nice part:

1) You do not have to be a Premium Member to find and log this challenge cache.

2) You can use caches from outside Illinois.

3)You can pre-sign the cache log if you are in the area and then log the cache online when you qualify.
