When this cache was hidden in 2002 there was not as clear of
definition of types as there is now. Even now this cache could be
classed as either a multi or mystery. Changing cache types once it
the cache is approved can not easily be changed as they must be
changed by the cache reviewer and not the owner. The description is
quite clear on this cache as to what is required.
