How Geocaching Works

Please note Use of geocaching.com services is subject to the terms and conditions in our disclaimer.

Geocache Description:

This cache is at the above co-ordinates, but you must read the cache page for requirements to ensure that your log for this cache is valid!
There are two seperate ways to log this cache, choose either of them. This cache can be logged twice. Once for each logging.

CHOICE ONE

There are 81 possible Difficulty / Terrain combinations.
The challenge here is to do at least one of each
Once you've completed a cache for each combination & your 9x9 grid is complete, you can log this cache

You must have the Difficulty / Terrain grid in your profile so I can check that you've completed the challenge & done it in the right spirit.
I will delete any logs not meeting this criteria.
If you need to add the Difficulty / Terrain grid to your profile, I suggest you go to (Its Not About the Numbers

Onto the cache.
Please do not log any of your own caches
For this part you may use any caches you have found since you started caching.
This cache is more of a cache and dash

CHOICE TWO

Find one cache in each of the 9 Terrain Levels (with the same Difficulty level) OR One cache in each of the 9 difficulty levels (with the same Terrain level) OR a combination of the two (ie THE DIAGONALS). After you have done all 9 BINGO! - You can claim the find.



 

The Difficulty is rated 5 because of the requirements of the challenge, but the Terrain rating relates to the Final cache.

This cache will be difficult either physically or mentally to give everyone's skills a test. 

If you are a Puzzler then try for caches of increasing difficulty.

 Are you a Hiker? Then the increasing terrain is your game! 

If you are a true glutton for punishment then try the diagonal from 1/1 to 5/5. 

 

Any Cache, Any Where, will get you there!

To claim a find on this cache you will have to
list in your log the new caches that you have found since 1st April 2009,
with the dates found, which complete a line in the Difficulty/Terrain grid in one of the following ways:

   

Horizontally:

Any difficulty rating (in a straight line) is acceptable!

 

 

 

Vertically:

Any terrain rating (in a straight line) is acceptable!

 

 

 

or Diagonally:

ONLY ONE DIAGONAL IS NECESSARY!

from 1/1 to 5/5 or from 1/5 to 5/1!
