Uh, my vote is definitely not. There are plenty of locations that can be considered as beautiful sunsets. You can walk every 100 feet and create a new waymark. There would have to be some drastic limitations, but that would result in the loss of potential waymarks.
I have to agree. You can see a beautiful sunset anywhere. Remember, a view is just a view.

Sounds like an interesting idea. Not sure how others feel about the suggestion, perhaps it has been suggested before?

This is now a category! This is super cool!
I can't wait to post some waymarks! -
For example, the wikipedia category concept is to list anything in the wikipedia and have the URL for that article. I can see how this would be a similar concept.
I've seen the Wikipedia category, and this one is similar. In fact, it was the Wiki that inspired the idea of the Roadside America Category.

I saw this really cool boat lift referenced in the Off Topic / What is It thread. (Sorry for not posting a link back to the original poster...)
I think a waymark category of boat lifts would be really nice to go browse.
Anyone want to champion this one?
I've never seen anything like this. An interesting idea! I vote yes!

OK, it DOES say that they are not currently accepting new proposals in the pinned note, but there are so many proposals here, that I wanted to get mine out there before someone else beats me to it. Or perhaps they already have? I haven't seen it in my searches, but how about a place full of named bricks? You know the kind: Some place is trying to raise funds for a new building or some other purpose, and they say tell you that for $100 or whatever, they will put your name on a brick in the entry sidewalk. I can think of 3 or 4 places that I go all the time that have these bricks in the entryway, and I have seen several more on vacation etc.
Thoughts, anyone?
How soon will they be accepting these?
I think it's a neat idea. And just so you know, they are not actively seeking proposals, but every now and then, a proposal does get through.

I think a great addition to the site would be a listing of all of the Roadside America listings.
Thoughts, comments, or ideas?

Trailheads for mountain biking? I like it a lot!

A category of "Tree Houses" would include those tree houses around the world that are notable enough to have been published as well as more typical tree houses built for or by kids.
The category could be placed in the directory either under "Place > Buildings" or "Things > Structures"
I like the idea. Two thumbs up from a tree house lover.

How about cliche street names?
For example: Easy Street, Memory Lane, Long Road, etc.
-
sorry to burst your bubble, but this guy's category includes helipads.
Oops. My bad. Thanks for the link.

I manage the Firehouses category. Being that I'm "in the business", I have posted several waymarks of firehouses I know of. I don't see an issue with submitting your own marks.
-
Certainly there should be a waymark category for U.S. Route 66 !
Brilliant idea! I'd like to see this one as a category!
-
This proposal keeps getting better and better.
-
(hmm... produce stands... Interesting waymark category)
This idea is great!
-
what about public access concerns? many are on the tops of buildings--especially in urban areas--and only the people who use it would know it was there.....so you waymark the helipad on your building, how would i be able to log it?
The same way in which you log a benchmark you cannot reach, such as on top of a building. If you know it's there, and you're in the right place, you got it.
In urban cases, I think making it to the applicable building is close enough to log a visit.

I like this idea. I like it alot.

To those of us who are involved in military, EMS, or Fire/Rescue careers, there has been a need at one time or another to locate a nearby helicopter landing pad. I know that in my many years of working as an EMT, I have had to airlift a handful of critical patients.
So, just like having a category for firehouses, why not have an equally important and useful category for helicopter landing pads (or helipads)?
Example:
This category would have to be restricted to physical landing pads that are marked as such, typically with an H and/or a visible windsock.
Any ideas?
-
I will manage this category if created.

How is this a risk? Terrorist have access to things called MAPS. If one goes to New York City, a subway system map can be gotten just about anywhere.

I'm still a much bigger supporter of FRS / GMRS radios for Geocaching. They're underused in the field and are universal and free. In other words, there's no plans to pay for, and everybody can have different radios that are all compatable. If more people would carry them around in the field, I think that Geocaching would be more fun, and in some cases, safer.
Just my ideas on the subject.
BTW, I am a Verizon wireless customer, and I have been for some time now. Great service.
-
I know of a few, though not many. I'd post a few locations if this category got approved.
-
That's cool! I like this idea!

Sounds like a great idea.
