How do you set the Overall Difficulty and Terrain Difficulty ?

[Guest Pepe]

Hi

 

I'm asking because I didn't find the answer in the FAQ or in the "Guide to Creating and Hiding a Cache" on www.geocaching.com

 

When I'm creating a new cache, I have to qualify the "Overall Difficulty" and the

"Terrain Difficulty". But the only information I found, was: "1 is easiest, 5 requires climbing/scuba gear".

 

Okay, now I know what "1" means and what "5" means. But what is the difference between "2.5" and "3" ?

 

How will I know, that what I think is "3" is also for the others a "3", if there is no explanation what "3" should be in fact ?

I asked a similar question in this forum a few weeks ago. Here's the link to the message thread.

 

Good luck, Pepe.
