~-~-~-~ The 5 Challenge ~-~-~-~
This cache is a challenge cache. That means that there is an additional task that must be completed before this cache can be logged as a find. For this cache, the challenge is to find 5 geocaches with the difficulty and terrain combination of 5/5. Caches found before this cache was published DO qualify.
This challenge was placed as a way for people to look back at some of their adventures (or misadventures ) that they'd had with attempting 5/5 geocaches. I know that I have had fun with these types of caches before, with boats needed or climbing or long difficult hikes involved.
This cache is located at a small gravel parking lot in Millenium Park. The cache it's self is not a 5/5, the rating is due to the requirements needed. Millenium Park is a great place for biking, hiking, swimming, kayaking, and there are tons of caches! With a total of 1,500 Acres, it is one of the nations largest urban parks. Before Millenium Park was even an idea, there was a 19th Century mining town located right in the middle of it! For more info on this historic site, check out this cache GC5GP91(Coming Spring 2015!)
