Geocache Description:

Historic Caches of Lenawee County Challenge:
In an effort to build cacher awareness of the historic caches in Lenawee County, Michigan, this challenge has been issued.
The first cache placed in Lenawee County was GC9DC, Hudson Lake Green Stripe, on May 20, 2001. The second oldest GC5461 was placed at a different location within Heritage Park. This park has held an incredible number of hides over the years. 
 


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 five of the eight current oldest existing caches in Lenawee 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 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. The difficulty rating is not for finding the final, it is for the overall challenge.
