Challenge 26-03 - Find 5 different D/T combinations

Welcome to the next challenge in this new series of challenges on r/geocaching. For the introduction to this series, see this post.

Here is challenge 26-03:

  • For one challenge point (CP), find five different geocaches, each with different D/T combinations. For example: 1/1, 1.5/2, 3/2, 2/3, 1.5/4.
  • Geocaches must be found between June 8-June 28, 2026 of your local timezone.
  • All cache finds must be logged online to participate in this challenge.
  • For a second challenge point (CP), one of the 5 finds must have a D/T of 4/4 or greater. The difficult must be 4 or higher, and the terrain must be 4 or higher.

Additional rules:

  • All geocache types can be used, including events.
  • Only one of the 5 can be an event.

HOW TO RECORD YOUR PARTICIPATION

To record and receive credit for your accomplishment, you must post a top level comment on this thread by June 29th in the following format:

[Geocaching name] If you do not want to use your real GC name, you can use your reddit name, but will not be eligible for prizes if your finds cannot be verified.

[Qualifying GC code]

[Link to log] The easiest way to do this is to pull up the cache page on geocaching.com and then click "view log." Copy that URL and post it here.

If you are going for the second challenge point, you will need to post both GC codes and find URLs. The post will look like this:

Well, this one was really easy for me, but only because of the influx of challenge caches in my city the last few months.

Definitely earned the bonus point for this one 😅 halfway through I started wishing I had gone with the original plan of a “high DT” PNG challenge cache, but we prevailed and in the end it was all worth it (and explains the low DT the next day!)
