This Fill the Grid with a Twist Challenge may be easier for some to complete than the Washington State Well Rounded Washington Cacher (Fizzy Challenge), GC13P6B, which has location and date placed requirements. For this Fill the Grid Challenge, however, you will still be going for a complete array of caches in difficulty, terrain, and type.
D/T for this challenge are due to the difficulty and travel required to accomplish the requirements. The actual cache rating is 1.5/1.5. (You deserve a break, right?)
To Log this Challenge:
The Challenge is to completely fill the Difficulty/Terrain grid of all 81 squares, but there is a twist!! Your qualifying finds must include at least one of each of the following cache types:
- Traditional Cache
- Multi-cache
- Virtual Cache
- Letterbox Hybrid
- Event Cache (traditional type)
- Unknown Cache
- Webcam Cache
- EarthCache
- Wildcard (Any other cache icon such as special types of Event Caches, Geocaching HQ, Project APE Caches, Locationless (Reverse) Caches, GPS Adventures Exhibit, or Wherigo Caches.)
The Twist:
In your journey to fill the grid you must include the 9 different icons listed above BUT.... they must complete a "BINGO" of sorts on the grid. Meaning that your 9 icons fill up either a column down, a row across, or a corner to corner diagonal on the grid. Below is an example of a corner to corner diagonal.
Which Row, Column or Diagonal is entirely up to you!!
The Challenge Rules and Regulations:
- You must have logged at least at least one cache find in each of the 81 difficulty / terrain grid locations.
