  13. Thankyou Wintertime for the information I came into this topic to find, I use Mac and PC, I wish to use the Mac for caching, that no ones concern but mine and don’t see why PC thugs (He,He) should give us a hard time for wishing to discuss it. Again thankyou wintertime for the low down on MacGPS Pro It was a shame I had to wade through all the PC phallic waving.
  14. Has this ever been suggested – if we can filter finds to show only caches that we have not found or hidden it would be good to mark caches ‘ignore’ as well to exclude ones we have no interest in. Maybe this can already be done and I just don’t know it (if so let me know) but I would use this feature on a few caches that are in my area but which because of their nature I will never do. Any thoughts…
  15. One time I did a mystery cache that had a rather clever clue in it but my mind just sort of went click and before I though about it I had the cache in my hands, I was not going to do the whole thing after already finding the caches I logged it and the owner did not have a problem with it, then at another cache I got the maths wrong and by the time I realised it was late but then I saw the spot that matched the descriptions and low and behold the cache was there, logged it to and again the owner did not mind,
  16. I agree I have had a few people not follow the theme of a cache, I think because they just overlooked it (it was not blatant) but if the type of cache said ‘look out for the ‘theme’ it would maybe stop this. (I was generous with the people who made a mistake and left their finds but removed non theme items.)
  17. *going off to search* would this address the "save someone who would not be interested from looking for it." issue?
  18. I like the idea, what if 30 people are watching a cache though, it would need its own page.
  19. The first post was just as ‘hay look at this’ the second was in the GPS education MB as it relates to that topic and I wished to share it with people looking for ideas, I emailed GC.com and was pointed to this board and so I not being able to move my original thread to this board stated a new one here and put a note in the old one redirecting discussion here. If you don’t wish to read it don’t
  20. Thats not really the kind of thing I was talking about, this is a real sketch in a log book of a set view ie. from a lookout.
  21. started new topic on this, here: http://forums.Groundspeak.com/GC/index.php?showtopic=63277 trying to get it as an official "cache type"
  22. I am a social science teacher in Australia and developed a field work activity for my students that combined Geocaching and the Geography field work skill of Field Sketches. I called this activity GeoSketching, to do it with students I give them a booklet and co-ords and they navigate with the GPS to set locations and draw field sketches looking in a set direction. With student I try to achieve course outcomes but as an way of doing something different I put out two GeoSketch caches in the towns I live/work in, one of them is: http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_details.aspx?ID=112448 it explains the concept. At first I was going to do them as a virtual till I thought of doing them as traditional caches with a 'sketch log' (this also allowed me to make the first a micro), I put the word GeoSketch in the cache name to save someone who would not be interested from looking for it. I also thought though that this might be something that some other people (who might never see my cache) might like to try. If we had 'GeoSketching' or 'Sketch Caches' as a category others could give it a go and those that would not wish to do it can more easily avoid them. I don't expect that my Geosketch caches will be very popular as I live/travel often enough in areas that are far from awash with other cachers, But if other thought this type of cache was of interest then maybe it could have its own category.
  23. I wish to do this cache http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_detai...&decrypt=y&log= and this website : http://www.dubbo.nsw.gov.au/your%20council...ter_cities.html says Dubbo (my town) and Clawson, Michigan are sisters so can any one work with me. you will get a find.
