This cache will be moving around the State of Arizona. It is a virtual cache and is intended to be a means of documenting the favorite locations of Arizona geocachers. Coordinates for a location in Arizona will be posted. It is then up to the geocaching community to go to this location and take a few pictures.

You must visit the site AFTER the coordinates are posted. In order to ensure that the pictures are "new", you must post the following:
1. Picture(s) of the area around the coordinates, hopefully scenic picture(s);
2. A picture of your GPSR taken at the location with the coordinates clearly readable (within 200 ft);
3. A picture of your GPSR taken at the location with the date clearly readable:
4. The usual text log describing the visit to the site and listing the coordinates (to let future readers know where this site is.)

Whoever is the first to send me email that they have completed the assignment and who have also met the four criteria above will then select the next location for this cache - someplace they would like to see in pictures. Anyone can post other pictures of the site either before or after the "First Finder", but the email log will determine who is first. Once someone has logged a site and selected the new location, they are required to sit on their hands and let someone else play the game for the new location (no fair finding your own location). They can rejoin the hunt after sitting out for one site.

For the sake of simplicity, once a first finder posts a new location, we need to stop taking finds for the old location. Otherwise it will get too complicated to have multiple locations being logable at the same time. However, the intent of this cache is to show new locations in Arizona via pictures. You are encouraged to visit these locations yourself and enjoy the scenic beauty of Arizona.

To allow for players who do not have a digital camera, you can log to the site and email me that you are having pictures developed. I will allow up to 1 week for the photos to be developed and posted.
