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 the third challenge in this series.  This one is moderately  challenging.  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 list in your log showing all the qualifying caches.  Your list must include the GC numbers, cache names, cache types and the date that you met the challenge.


REQUIREMENTS:

This cache is a classic "Busy Day" challenge.  Since most of the caches must automatically be non-traditional, you are permitted to use one traditional cache as part of your list of qualifying caches.

 

  1. Find 6 different cache types in one calendar day.
  2. Any cache type may be used to meet this requirement except locationless caches.

That's all there is to it, have fun!
