Geocache Description:

This cache is NOT at the listed Coordinates. Review the Final Waypoint.

You must successfully complete the “Challenge”, find final and sign log.  You should find the “Hint” valuable in locating the final cache.

The Challenge is to find Unknown (?) Type caches in at least 20 different US States, Provinces or International regions. 


When planning our travels, we look for Challenge caches near our route that we either already qualify for or could meet requirements before arrival. The last year, we have made a point of trying to get at least one cache of each type we don’t have in states we travel through. 

To complete this Challenge, go find Unknown (?) caches (Can be any Unknown Type – Challenge, Puzzle, etc.) anywhere in the world.  Find as many as your desire, but only one counts as a qualifying find for that State, Province or International Region. You will need to find at least one Unknown (?) type cache in 20 different US States, Provinces or International Regions. For purposes of this Challenge, the posted coordinates will be used to determine the qualifying State location.

You MAY use caches previously found as long as they were not archived on the date you found them.

To document completion of this challenge, in your log provide the State (region), GC Code, Date you found, and Cache Name for each of the respective caches claimed.  You may use the output of the provided Challenge Checker as proof of your qualification.  

We do not want anyone who has completed this challenge to strike out on the final.  If you give us notice when you are going to attempt the final, we will verify the final cache is still in place.

For those who are interested in such things, at time of placement MaxB has found Mystery caches in 48 States and 9 International regions.
