There is a series around Rochester, NY called "Quacked Up Holiday Series". Each of the 12 caches has a bunch of small rubber ducks decorated appropriately for the theme of the cache. I only have 7 out of the 12, though, as some of the caches ran out of ducks before I found them.

I found one today as a matter of fact. I don't think it was a cache per-say. There was no marking on it, just a small "disposable" Tupperware-type container covered in black tape. Inside was a small logbook and a stamp. Was this a letterbox? I've never seen a stamp in a cache before. I got the coordinates and I will look it up to see if I can find out about it. The weird thing about it was it was right out in the open, like someone found it on accident and just tossed it in the woods. It was visible from a main trail, which I have never seen before.

Why does it have to be about a number or length of time? I say, if you enjoy doing it and you are familiar with and respect the rules, then you are legit. As Flask said, you build skills as you go, but you're legit from day one.
