Deego Posted February 6, 2006 Share Posted February 6, 2006 (edited) Difficulty and Terrain They are numbered 1-5 (easy/hard) Edited February 6, 2006 by Deego Quote Link to comment
+fishingdude720 Posted February 6, 2006 Share Posted February 6, 2006 they are to show you how the cache is. If it were 1 star difficulty it would be easy, If it were a 5 it would be very difficult. Ame with terrain. Quote Link to comment
+briansnat Posted February 6, 2006 Share Posted February 6, 2006 Here are the accepted definitions: Difficulty rating: * Easy. In plain sight or can be found in a few minutes of searching. ** Average. The average cache hunter would be able to find this in less than 30 minutes of hunting. *** Challenging. An experienced cache hunter will find this challenging, and it could take up a good portion of an afternoon. **** Difficult. A real challenge for the experienced cache hunter - may require special skills or knowledge, or in-depth preparation to find. May require multiple days / trips to complete. ***** Extreme. A serious mental or physical challenge. Requires specialized knowledge, skills, or equipment to find cache. Terrain rating: * Handicapped accessible. (Terrain is likely to be paved, is relatively flat, and less than a 1/2 mile hike is required.) ** Suitable for small children. (Terrain is generally along marked trails, there are no steep elevation changes or heavy overgrowth. Less than a 2 mile hike required.) *** Not suitable for small children. (The average adult or older child should be OK depending on physical condition. Terrain is likely off-trail. May have one or more of the following: some overgrowth, some steep elevation changes, or more than a 2 mile hike.) **** Experienced outdoor enthusiasts only. (Terrain is probably off-trail. Will have one or more of the following: very heavy overgrowth, very steep elevation (requiring use of hands), or more than a 10 mile hike. May require an overnight stay.) ***** Requires specialized equipment and knowledge or experience, (boat, 4WD, rock climbing, SCUBA, etc) or is otherwise extremely difficult. Quote Link to comment

+Vinny & Sue Team Posted February 6, 2006 Share Posted February 6, 2006 Difficulty and Terrain They are numbered 1-5 (easy/hard) Omigosh! Is that true? I feel sooo embarrased! And here, all along, I though that the DT referred to "delerium tremens" and thought they were talking about my physical/mental state while hunting the cache! Quote Link to comment
