Will try to make it with the family. Happy to see one of these close to home.

May I put a point up? I know the big question is why we can't put caches on National Parks. I don't see why we can't but right now we have to follow their rules. One way to help get it across to them (NP) that this is not a bad thing is to start at the local level. (ex. city/state) If we can show them that the local people are letting us do it then maybe they will take a more serious look into the matter. I know this from my experience from working at the state parks here in MS. I have showed it does the park good to have a geocach on it. I have also showed that geocachers do not mees up the surrounding area like non cachers. I have also showed that cachers don't litter like regular guset do. So in doing that it has been a positive reaction in getting other caches placed in the local and private areas. So just ask and inform people of what is going on and what it is about will help out more than anything else. If you get a NO then maybe relook at how you explaned youreself or just move on to a different location and ask there. Thanks sivad Wall Doxey State Park, MS

I work for the parks in Mississippi. I know that for us or at least our park we have no problem with caches. As a matter of fact I placed one on our park. It has helped to get more people to come to the park. My manager likes the idea. The only thing that our park managers ask is to let them know what you are doing and what it is. So far on the other parks in our state they seem to like the idea. I had on other manager call me and ask me what was this game. I explaned to him what it was. He then told me why he called me. He had someone ask him if he could put one on the park. Now he wants more caches on the park because it has brought people in to the park that have never been there or ever heard of it. So what I am saying is with us ... just ask.. most of the time it is no problem. Just my thoughts on the subject.

Thanks for the fast reply. I tried it. When I turn the unit back on it says waas enabled. Does this mean it is still on? And shoud it stop averaging with the waas off? Thanks for the help
