Geocache Description:

Getting here was half the fun moving along the ridge top passing the future Christmas trees of America.

This communities Grange has hosted the Springwater Fair every year since 1923


DESCRIPTION:

To celebrate 15 years of geocaching Oregon's Mt. Hood Territory has created the Cache the Stash Challenge (CtSC) in the home of geocaching, the place where it all began The CtSC is actually a series of six community coin challenges that will be launched the morning of Saturday, Aug. 8th, 2015. Five hundred (500) coins have been minted for each of the six community challenges (Canby, Damascus, Estacada, North Clackamas, Sandy, West Linn). All six coins will fit together to for a puzzle cube. It's pretty cool... You can check it out here.

Here are the caches for Estacada challenge.

INSTRUCTIONS:

  1. Find the caches for each of the community challenges.
  2. Log them.
  3. Write down the code word found in each cache container on the corresponding Code Sheet/Passport.
  4. When you've completed a community challenge, or the entire CtSC, fill out the rest of the information on the Code Sheet/Passport and redeem it to claim your coin(s).
  5. In the event that a community cache is missing, or a cacher is unable to physically access a cache, up to three (3) non-challenge local area caches may be substituted. Instead of writing a code word on the log sheet, you are to write the GC # of the substitute cache(s).

Copies of individual Code Sheets are available on-line.

For the weekend of the Cache the Stash Challenge - Aug. 8-9, 2015 - you can bring completed Code Sheets/Passports to the Registration Booth at the End of the Oregon Trail Interpretive Center in Oregon City (a.k.a. CtSC Field HQ). After Aug. 9th coins can be claimed here.

Note - We respectfully request that coins be limited to one per household. For a full list of CtSC Rule click here.
