On this episode of Caching in the NorthWest, we sit down with returning guest JTCoffee to dig into the creative side of challenge cache design — from picking a theme, to building a requirement that feels rewarding instead of tedious, to navigating what will and won't get past reviewer approval. JTCoffee joined us back on Episode 672 to talk Seattle-area caches and EarthCaches, and this time returns for a deep dive into challenge caches, plus a surprise double duty filling in for LANMonkey on the intro.
