  5. quote:Maybe the hidden boxes could each contain a rare and valuable McToy. Throughout the book, the hero is being chased by an evil Ronald McDonald clown. The final chapter would involve the hero throwing the clown off a cliff and then placing a beanie baby into a secret slot which will permanently shut down eBay.And the hero runs afoul of a secret society whose recognition signal is to point the index finger under the chin... ____________________________ - Team Og Rof A Klaw All who wander are not lost.
  6. There are prolly at least two ways to decode the clue. I did it the hard way and it took me about an hour. (Hint: This use of RSA is weak.) Decrypting it doesn't automatically get you the answer, though! ____________________________ - Team Og Rof A Klaw All who wander are not lost.
  7. quote:what i don't understand is why everyone jumps to the conclusion that mr. sherman has found no caches.I don't. I jump to the conclusion that he's found 34 caches and one benchmark.

  8. Only the book description: quote:"GeoCaching: Hiding, Hiking and High Tech" is a guide to the relatively new, and exponentially growing, activity of geocaching. It is a treasure hunting game using handheld GPS (global positioning system) receivers that is now played world-wide. Although invented in May of 2000, there are already hundreds of thousands of people who participate, and that number continues to rapidly grow. "GeoCaching: Hiding, Hiking and High Tech" covers not only the fundamental principles and points of geocaching, but also covers such related topics as wilderness navigation, hiking, and outdoor safety. The reason to buy this book is that it combines "how to" information -- the necessary technical background in GPS, navigation, and hiking, along with some history of the geocaching activity as well as some narrative spots that give readers a sense of why they should get involved. The person who expressed interest in being the technical editor is well regarded in geocaching circles and highly knowledgeable and will ensure that the information is as directed to practical use as possible. This book is a comprehensive guide to geocaching, a leisure activity using GPS technology for a high tech treasure hunt game. It is the only book out on something that has been growing at exponential rates since its introduction in 2000 and that has received wide coverage on television, on radio, and in newspapers and magazines. It is particularly popular with extreme sports and high tech aficionados.I'll wait for video... ____________________________ - Team Og Rof A Klaw All who wander are not lost.
  9. Just got the unit back from Garmin. They say it passes their tests and that they've loaded the most recent software (which doesn't have any lockup fixes.) I'm going to see whether it locks up in the field again. Will let everyone here know if so. ____________________________ - Team Og Rof A Klaw All who wander are not lost.

  14. quote:We had a similar thing happen in NJ recently. Some volunteer "hawk watcher" went off into a nearby state park, GPS in hand. He got lost and called the police. He was able to provide coordinates and a SAR team reached him after dark.Not only that, but if you walk a half mile in any direction from anywhere, you'll hit a road. It's difficult to get away from traffic noise anywhere in NJ, much less get seriously lost in the scant remaining woods. With a GPS in hand, yet. Or a compass. Or even one good eye to see the sun. ____________________________ - Team Og Rof A Klaw All who wander are not lost.
  15. Hi, all, I'm experiencing occasional lockups with my GPSMAP 76s. The compass locks in position and none of the buttons has any effect. The lockup can only be cleared by removing the batteries. Is anyone else here seeing this? ____________________________ - Team Og Rof A Klaw All who wander are not lost.

  17. Deb Brown is the NGS employee to whom one reports destroyed benchmarks. I'd assume that the policy here is supposed to reflect NGS policy. ____________________________ - Team Og Rof A Klaw All who wander are not lost.

  19. Official word from Deb Brown at NGS. quote:Dear Mr. Og Rof A Klaw, Technically, if disk is sheared off from its stem, the marker is destroyed because the precise elevation in particular would be affected. As well, it would be impossible to determine beyond a shadow of doubt that that stem that is not marked with a designation is in fact "that" mark. For reporting on such stations, there are 2 ways to do so. 1) If a photo in JPEG format is available of the remnants of the marker then please send it to me via email with the PID and designation of the station and I will submit a destroyed report for it. 2) If no photo is available then use the online form to report on it using the "Poor/Disturbed" condition code and in the text portion of the form indicate its actual condition (ie. disk sheared off only stem remains). I hope this answers your question adequately. Please let me know if you need further clarification. deb ____________________________ - Team Og Rof A Klaw All who wander are not lost.

  22. I used to do this a lot when I was a kid. You can cast rocks, flowers, anything. I used to use glass jars as molds, and smash the jars after the resin had set. Do a Google search for clear casting resin and you'll come up with a lot of places to get the stuff. Art and hobby stores should carry it too. Watch out for air bubbles in the resin. ____________________________ - Team Og Rof A Klaw All who wander are not lost.
