Geocache Description:

This cache IS at the published co-ordinates, but you need to qualify for this cache to be able to log it!

To qualify for this cache you must do TWO things:

1. For the NEAR part of the challenge-

Find EITHER TEN caches within a mile from your home OR if you do not have 10 caches within a mile of your home, find the TEN nearest caches to your home,

AND

2. For the FAR part of the challenge-

Find AT LEAST 5 caches MORE THAN 1000 MILES from your home.

The information required for the ten nearest caches to your home can be seen by searching for the nearest caches to your home (and I just need a screen shot of that page with 'Smilies' next to the top 10 caches that are not your own!).

For the distance caches, i.e. ten within a mile and 5 over 1000 miles away, it can be easily seen on your Statistics page (under the 'Distance to Finds').

If your Statistics page is not publicly visible then please attach a screen shot of it to your log. If your finds cannot be verified then your log WILL be deleted!

Any type of cache, found on any date can count as your finds. This means that past finds can count, including those that have been subsequently archived.

Your own caches CANNOT count (Bizarre as it is, some people DO log their own caches!!!). The only exception to this rule would be, if you have hosted an event and logged an attendance.

You do NOT need to list your qualifying caches in your log.

This cache CANNOT count as one of your qualifying finds.
