The 12 Days of Cachemas (TDOC23) is a series of 78 caches, events and adventure labs placed across Victoria to celebrate Cachemas in July in 2023. The series is a joint initiative of Geocaching Victoria and the local community to release caches in a different category each day across the state. We hope you have as much fun finding this series, as we had placing them. Now on to the cache.
On the third day of Cachemas, Signal gave to me,
three quirky challenges,
two earthcaches,
and a wherigo up in a tree.
This is a Challenge cache. The cache is hidden at the posted co-ordinates. To find the cache just go there. You may sign the log book at any time, but in order to claim the smiley, you must complete the "The 25th of the month Challenge.". A find challenge, with a bit of a twist.
There is no time limit, caches can be found BEFORE or AFTER this challenge was published.
Conditions:
1. You must find a total of 250 caches on the 25th day of the month, using all months combined on geocaching.com
2. You must attend 2 different Event types and find 5 other cache types on the 25th of any month, any year
3. You must sign the physical log inside the container to claim the smiley. No sign, no find, no exceptions.
How do I know if I have done that I hear you ask?
It is quite simple really, just head to the project GC website, using the below link and see how you have done. If you get a tick from the checker, you are all good to go and find, sign and log it.
While some Geocachers may find this challenge very easy, others may find it very hard to achieve. For some it may require long periods of dedication and perseverance. I welcome placing notes on the cache page if you are taking up the challenge.
Please take this challenge in the fun spirit that it has been created with. This challenge has not been deliberately designed to exclude or discriminate against any Geocachers, but to create a sense of achievement when you reach certain goals.
Logging Etiquette: Geocache hiders sometimes go through a great deal of planning to place their caches. As a result, they'd like to hear your feedback on whether you liked or disliked any aspect of the hide, or if you feel that some cache maintenance is required. Single word, acronym, or emoticon logs may be easier when you have a lot of caches to log, but it doesn't tell the hider or other finders anything about your adventure (or lack thereof) in finding the cache. Please keep this in mind when entering your log.
