Ok. So, now I am curious. How many GCx caches are left...

GC0 - not listed
GC1 - not listed
GC2 - not listed
GC3 - not listed
GC4 - Archived - 1 find
GC5 - Archived - 15 finds
GC6 - Archived - 2 finds
GC7 - Archived - 3 finds
GC8 - Archived - 135 finds lasted until early 2007
GC9 - Archived - 0 find
GCA - not listed
GCB - Archived - 2 finds
GCC - not listed
GCD - Active - 52 finds
GCE - not listed
GCF - Archived - 4 finds - this is listed as the original cache.

That GCD looks like a cool hike. Congrats on a rare find!
