This is a challenge cache. The cache IS at the given coordinates, however you have to meet certain criteria to mark this cache as found. Read below to understand this challenge.
There is plenty of room to park along the shoulder, but still be careful here. Bring tweezers!
Congrats Siff on FTF!
A long time ago, on a long and lonesome road, the incredible Tenacious D sang the Greatest Song in the World, and defeated a demon. Unfortunately, they don't remember the words to that song, so instead, we got .... The Greatest Song in the World (Tribute).
Tributes can be for anyone, for anything, for any reason. However, they typically explain why someone or something was great, and offers them compliments or brings the attention of the masses to them.
Tribute caches are one of the many extra additions to a simple geocache, that can make it go from ordinary, to extraordinary. Whether its the police, the firemen, a baseball player, a hero, your next door neighbor, or just someone you want to honor, you can make a tribute for them very easily. Tributes are meant to show gratitude, respect, or admiration (Oxford Dictionary). They do not have to be in the form of a cache, obviously, but there are plenty of cachers who use caches as a way to offer tribute to someone.
Tribute caches are a great way to learn a little bit of extra history or learn something you may not have known before about a common name. Or, they can just be a simple cache that is tribute enough to someone. Either way, this challenge is designed to make you go out and find some tributes.
TO LOG THIS CACHE: Simply find and log 20 caches with "tribute" in the title, anywhere in the world. You may ALSO log this cache if you have HIDDEN 20 caches with the word "tribute" in the title. Hopefully you'll find/have found caches in many areas, although there are plenty in Northern Colorado to keep you busy. It'll be nice to see all the different types of tribute caches that are out there. To qualify for this cache, once you have found the container and signed/stamped it, simply list all 20 caches and the dates you have found them. You may type it up, use screen shots, or whatever method you'd like, however if your profile is not set to public for verification, make sure you can prove you found the caches in some form. FTF status and "found" logs need to be verified in a timely manner, or they may be deleted.
Note: if you are logging this cache after hiding 20 "tribute" caches, make sure your tribute caches follow the proper meaning. Let cachers know what/who you are offering tribute to, and why. Remember, a tribute is meant to show gratitude, respect, or admiration, so show it properly!
As always, you may sign/stamp the log ahead of time and do a "write note". Once you qualify you may change it to a "Found" log with your qualifications present.
This challenge is meant to get you out and looking for different types of tribute caches, it is not meant to be very hard. It is an extra reward for honoring the tributes yourselves. I hope you learn something in the process, or honor someone in a very special way!

06/01/2019 By sweet-marie Greetings from Beautiful British Columbia! Off on a 10 day, 9 state geo-adventure with kteeeee, Laphamclan and MissPeach13. Many thanks to all of the COs for placing these caches for us to find and adding to our fun day. We used our CCC (Canadian Caching Crew) stamp or initials on all of the logs.
Today we headed to the oldest cache in Colorado and then changed our original plans to go to Mt. Evans as the road was closed due to snow and we were unable to do the caches there We went through the city of Denver instead and stopped in Fort Collins for the night.
Sadly this entire series is in need of maintenance. I am posting a note until I can verify that I qualify

09/06/2018 By Casper&Aero Casper&Aero complète le challenge Moose's Challenge: .......A Tribute (GC5M41A) selon https://project-gc.com/Challenges/GC5M41A/9591
Notre périple a débuté le 22 août dernier et nous amènera à visiter douze états Américains et deux provinces Canadiennes... Notre départ s'est fait à partir de Baie-Comeau, une ville sur la Côte Nord du Québec pour ensuite se poursuivre quelques jours à Québec où nous avons fait un peu de Géocaching.... Par la suite, nous avons fait un arrêt à St-Eustache et Ville de Laval, toujours au Québec, pour ensuite prendre l'avion et arriver à Portland, Oregon... Nous avons fait un arrêt le 28 août à Umatilla toujours en Oregon, le 29 août à Boise en Idaho, le 30 à Twin Falls et le 31 nous sommes à Salt Lake City pour deux jours... Le 2 septembre nous étions à Rock Springs, Wyoming, le 3 nous avons fait un arrêt à Laramie, Wyoming... Le 4 et le 5 septembre nous étions dans la région de Colorado Spring, CO... Aujourd’hui nous nous dirigeons vers Fort Collins, CO...
Pendant tout le voyage nous avons ciblé quelques caches qui nous aideront à atteindre nos objectifs personnels et nous découvrirons certainement de nouveaux endroits que les Géocacheurs d'ici voudront nous faire découvrir... Nous préparons ce voyage depuis plusieurs mois et savons que nous ne pourrons pas tout voir par manque de temps... Il y a beaucoup de caches mais devons fermer les yeux ne pouvant toutes les trouver... Mais c'est avec plaisir que nous apposerons notre signature sur certaines d'entre-elles...
Merci pour la création de ces caches qui ajoutent des sourires à notre profil et qui nous font passer du bon temps peu importe l'humeur de Dame Nature... Notre log sera le même pour toute la journée et s'il y a une particularité nous l'ajouterons au début du texte... Des favoris seront ajoutés ici et là pour tout le travail accompli... MPLC
Casper&Aero de Baie-Comeau, Québec, Canada
Our English is not perfect, we use Google Translate to help us ...
Our journey began last August 22 and will take us to visit twelve US states and two Canadian provinces ... Our departure was from Baie-Comeau, a city on the North Shore of Quebec and then continue for a few days in Quebec City where we did some Geocaching .... Then we stopped at St-Eustache and Ville de Laval, still in Quebec, and then flew to Portland, Oregon... We made stop in Umatilla on August 28 still in Oregon, August 29 in Boise, Idaho, August 30 in Twin Falls and August 31st we are in Salt Lake City for two days... The 2nd of september we were in Rock Springs. Wyoming and the september 3 the road brought us to Laramie, Wyoming... On September 4th and 5th we were in the Colorado Spring area, CO ... Today we are heading to Fort Collins, CO
Throughout the trip we have targeted some caches that will help us achieve our personal goals and we will certainly discover new places that Geocachers here will want us to discover ... We have been planning this trip for several months and know we will not be able to not all see for lack of time ... There are many caches but we must close our eyes can not find them all ... But it is with pleasure that we will put our signature on some of them ...
Thank you for creating these caches that add smiles to our profile and make us have a good time regardless of the mood of Mother Nature ... Our log will be the same for the whole day and if there is a particularity we will add it at the beginning of the text ... Favorites will be added here and there for all the work done ... TFTC
08/21/2018 By FresnoDancingFool The container was pretty easy to find and there was adequate nearby parking. I'm sure that I qualify for this one, but I don't have the time to produce a qualifying list, especially as all my 100 bookmark lists are currently in use, so I'll just write a note for now. TFTC in advance!
