  1. I was in the neighborhood this afternoon going for the Chili Today... cache and when I got home I noticed the Barbie cache posted. I could have made it a two-fer. Congrats Fizzy on the FTF.

     

    Pepper, looking forward to your new cache. Sounds like there is a lot of Blood, Sweat and Tears in it....hmm, sounds like a good name for a cache!

    Remember: Half the people you meet are below average.


     

    Dude! 18, high altitude, back country miles in one day! You're a better man than me! -Mark.

  4. I've come across First Place ribbons in many caches with the name of the cache written on the back. They're cheap and you can get them from any party supply store. I've got 3-4 of them. I usually put a first, second and third place ribbon in my caches.

     

    However...I am looking forward to snagging one of Johnnyb5's walking sticks!

  5. Good idea, I'm planning to leave some behind on upcoming backpacking trips also. I think you would be okay with high quality tupperware type containers that can be frozen or microwaved. Most of the "trashed" caches I come across are that way do to high number of people opening and closing them, and trying to shove more into them than they will hold.

    I've got one cache picked out that is a 9 mile hike into the Emigrant wilderness. I'm not sure if I'll be able to do it this year. But it's on my list of caches I'd like to hit.


     

    George,

    Sounds like the one on my list for this summer, (Gem Cache). I was going to hit it last year but things got crazy.

    Johnny,

    I don't know of any Chat rooms, but you can set up a private topic using "MyPop" section. It appears to be by invite only. (No on the IM.)
