Hi

Is it possible to set a Challenge that requires caches of a particular T rating, within a certain area, and above a certain height?

We noticed the series in the Wicklow Mountains eg GC3JZ8Y and would like to create a similar series of three caches in the Mourne Mountains.

The area is bounded by three roads A2 to the South and East, Byransford Rd to the North and C481 to the west.
You probably will prefer Lat & Long so the boundaries would be as follows:

East W005 52.400 (the coast)
West W006 10.800
North N54 13.620
South N54 4.240

Bronze would require 30 caches T2 or T2.5, above 150 m
Silver would require 20 caches T3 or T3.5, above 300 m
Gold would require 15 caches T4, T4.5 or T5 , above 400 m


Thank you

I'm sorry but since the introduction in 2016 of the challenge guidelines this type of challenge is no longer allowed.
Polygons are geographic areas other than country/state/county.

Please read https://www.geocaching.com/help/index.php?pg=kb.chapter&id=127&pgid=206#criteria

Not acceptable

Hi

Is it possible to have a challenge checker for T4.5 & T5 caches in Ulster, one of the Irish regions?

There are currently 132 such caches and we have found 44, some of which have been archived. There are 96 that we have not found.

Would a challenge to have found 30 caches of T4.5 or T5 in Ulster be acceptable?.

Thanks

Is this replacing the 30 finds or is this a new challenge?
If so can you provide a new GCcode

Hi

Re GC8WNCP

Could you please alter this challenge checker from 40 to 50 finds of T4.5 or T5 in Ulster.
We now qualify for that number.

Many thanks
