Nix on the Power Panel hide... the last thing we want people doing is poking around power panels that may be LIVE! It only takes one tenth of one Amp to stop a persons heart (aka... you're dead!). A power panel such as the one shown above can carry 250 Amps!. Just my two cents worth...

My wife and I just completed a particularly difficult, but fun, find last night. It was a micro made up from a mini Altoids strip tin, covered with camo-tape, hidden rather deviously (fishing line was involved) in a wooded area with spotty satellite coverage. In retrospect, searching right at sundown was not the greatest decision. All in all though, this was a very satisfying cache find given it's difficulty. But I'll have to go back some time and sign the log before I post this one as a 'find'. Because, somehow... with the experience of nearly 100 finds so far... I forgot to bring a pen or pencil to sign the log! Arrrrrggghhhhh!!! Sure, racking up a find count is fun... but we each have our parameters. Happy Hunting!

Hi!.... Logging a find is really quite easy! Just navigate to the Cache page you originally found the coordinates on. In the upper right corner of this page is a 'log your visit' icon. Click that icon and follow the instructions. You may log 'finds', 'did not finds', 'notes', etc. Many cachers like to tell a little about their experience finding the cache, what they liked/didn't like about the hide, weather, etc., etc. No real rules here. Some tell what items they traded if any. Common abbreviations you might see are: TNLN: Took Nothing/Left Nothing, SL: Signed Log, TFTH: Thanks for the hunt. Have fun! Happy Hunting!

My first post to a forum here... appropriate for your first also!
