Geocache Description:


Historic Caches of Oakland County Challenge: In an effort to build cacher awareness of the historic caches in Oakland County, Michigan, this challenge has been issued.

The cache container for this challenge is located at the given coordinates. In order to claim a find on this challenge, you must find and log the current five of the seven oldest existing caches in Oakland County.

Once the five caches have been found and logged, you may find and log this cache. You may either prove you have met the challenge by posting your finds to a public bookmark (best way) or you may list your finds in the body of your log on this cache. Either way, be sure to give the waypoint, cache name, and date found. Prior finds do count.

This cache is located on the nature preserve at Oakland University. You are seeking a smaller Lock'n'Lock container. Please replace it better than you found it. Free coffee for FTF. 7/2014 EDIT - Cache is moved off campus for construction. Will be moved back to Oakland University when construction is complete. Also, since Marshall Cache was archived, you may now use Chacham's Test towards the challenge OR previous finds of the Marshall Cache.
