Even better - put it on the watchlist:

There are several other ideas for _real_ night caches, and they've been covered in older threads.
I'd even go so far and don't call the "follow the light exercise" a geocache. I think "GPS Stash hunt" should have something to do with a GPSr.
Anyway: The basic idea of a _real_ nightcache is that you have to go to certain coords and from there you have to search for a reflector. At the reflector you'll get some new coords and so on.
btw. until now the largest distance between the coords and the belonging reflector I know is 800 m (~ 0.5 miles).

I mean, there's probably no more than 100-300 true night caches in the world.
There are at least 100 in Germany:

That's a good point but I don't think it's real problem. If you try to find a cache "Recommended at night" and you DNF it you shouldn't wonder about it."Recommended at night" is not the same as "Can only be found at night", which real night caches are. -

Ist Deutsch? Ich spriechen sie kiene Deutsch.
>> something like "civil service objector"

Got a Multi with a lot more than 5 waypoints, only possible at night and it takes at least 6 hours to find it - normally 8. Do whatever you like.
Your concept sounds perfect except that I'd leave all the items in the final as well.

Ok - du you really think the US invest billions of $ in a system which can be seriously disturbed by any earthquake? GPS is a military system and it's a little bit too expensive to break that simple. There're several bases around the world to ensure the system works properly

You'll get 5 stars for the terrain if you need special equipment: climbing gear, scuba diving, .... easy one.
5 stars for difficulty is a little bit harder >> hide the cache in a way that it is almost impossible to find, include a riddle or do something else where the cacher has to use his brain ...

This is what I get if I open http://www.geocaching.com/seek/nearest.asp...teamguzbach.org
The two caches on top should have a mark, shouldn't they? And the first one should be found ...

That's perfect German ... if anyone want's to know

IMO, if you think you need a gun to be safe in an area, you shouldn't be in that area.
VERY good point
-
copy that - same problem here
-
Whilst we all speak the same language, I sometimes think we are on a different planet. I know we all share a common interest but ........... on this one I am speechless
Don't forget that almost half of the people on the other side of the pond don't agree to this strange behaviour their government has ... there is hope.
-
Can anybody post a link to the cache? Too lazy to search for myself
-
Does it have the WOW-factor? Maybe
Is it impossible to place a cache nearby? No
>> Thumbs Down
btw.: This one is the only virtual I found which accords with the guidelines
-
Though I'm not an approver I know it has been discussed in the admin-forum: Caches where you just have to ask the owner for the koordinates/a key/important information are not allowed.
A SBA should do the trick with the cache.

Mystery or Puzzle Caches
The “catch-all” of cache types, this form of cache often involves complicated puzzles that you will first need to solve in order to determine the coordinates. The only commonality of this cache type is that the coordinates listed are not of the actual cache location but a general reference point, such as a nearby parking location. Unless a good reason otherwise can be provided, the posted coordinates should be no more than 1-2 miles away from the true cache location. This allows the cache to show up on the proper vicinity searches and to keep the mileage of Travel Bugs that find their way into the cache reasonably correct
Here are some you'll get the idea ...

I've been looking for snow shoes that work with ski boots. I see snowboarders use them for off trail.
The only issue I see is that ski boots are larger around then most pack boots.
I've even thought about a hack. Mounting trick ski toe clip bindings on shoes.
Any thoughts?
Why do you wanna do that? If you want to do a skiing tour a pair of special tour-ski is much better ...
btw.: I use MSR snow shoes too.

sourceDo you have an FRS/PMR channel to find out if other Geocachers are in the area?Yes. The community has decided on channel 2 as the primary for both FRS and PMR, and 12 as the alternate FRS (Family Radio Service) channel and 8 for the alternate PMR (Europe). FRS and PMR radios are longer distance walkie talkies, like the Motorola Talkabout.
By the way: The Krauts use PMR2 ... dunno why

"Vielen Dank für das Mitnehmen meines Travelbugs. Ich würde mich freuen, wenn Du ihn nach Irland bringen könntest, oder zumindest ein Stück weit in jene Richtung. Vielen Dank, Dennisfauchez"
As already stated: That's perfect German - dunno if I'm right but it seems to me like Hogarth isn't a native-speaker.
Anyway ... @tobsas: I said "almost". Yes there're some German geocachers who don't understand any English at all but it's hard to find them.

Almost every German speaks English >> no need for translation.
