  1. Sounds cool! Good luck! Robyn Super! Yeah, well we've just been greenlighted (and the name is now know as North By Southwest) which means ill be posting the cache on the site sometime soon Plese don't drop it in Lakeside as there is a certain FTF hog that would beat the rest of us slackers. GFETE
  2. CONGRATULATIONS TO D! I just wish that I could have made the trip as well.
  3. Congratulations to all you stoners especially Jim and Denice. And thanks to all for those creative caches that make our geocaching so much fun.
  4. Wow I was all ready to head out for the CITO tomorrow. i even loaded up a few pallet for the fire already. I must have messed up the date. I had been planning on making that my milestone. Three Sisters would work just fine tho. Where do you you want to meet and what time?
  5. Out caching with my dog Teddie today and we ran accross this turkey at GC1FDVW
  6. Dillweed and I spotted this guy on the way to the Hollenbeck Twin Peaks.http://img.geocaching.com/cache/log/display/fe23264e-e222-4885-bd5d-05bc4e1a7d37.jpg
  7. Hi Chuy! Kurt would like me to also take Bubba to the class you go to for Mocha! since they are the same age and their first training. I would like to inquire about a discount for cachers of course! let me know at I will persue it as we have a personal network to qualify as well. We're members of the San Diego Off Leash Meetup group; they're planning a session April 4th and 5th with the Natural Solutions group. I had Teddie take Calahans course and a refresher one the next year . She has allerted to 3 ratlesnakes that I know off. There was one on Long Valley Peak where I was upwind and in the lead of Dillweed and Teddie. Dillweed heard the snake and of course being deaf, I had already walked by it, we looked for Teddie but she had gone all the way down and up the other side of this 100' abutment then came back down to me
  8. I'd rather have one in a paloverde tree than those clumps of cat claw where you see the cache just sitting there waiting for the next sucker. GFETE
  9. Y-all gonna die or slip off the trail. Seriously that last mile will be very treacherous after all this rain. Shucks I thought you were going to the Twin Peaks at Hollenbeck GFETE

  11. I don't know how you filter out the Az Trust lands but if not you need a $55 permit/ single or $76 family to access any of the roads. I'm just going to cross off t he state of AZ just as I have Borego there's plenty of caches elsewhere.
  12. I would love to be able to go. I had a super time last year, however; this year I'm committed to a Friends Book Sale thast weekend and since I'm chairman I can't slip off. Please think of me when your scarfing down all the great BBQ.
  13. I never would have guessed she was that old. Heck even older than me!
  14. Congratulation to you both. you have indeed added to my fun and pleasure. May I suggest you make like a penny and get smashed to celebrate. GFETE Big Hug
  15. I have a virtual locationless cache that also had an actual cache that I had to drive to Wa state to log it. they both have the same name so it appears as a double entry.
  16. I really like this one and have it on my watchlist. http://www.geocaching.com/track/details.as...d2-32c4681ebb5b
  17. http://img.geocaching.com/cache/log/displa...39706c9e2ad.jpg I spotted these 2 on the way back down from Mt Israel
  18. I don't particularly approve of the pirate caches, however; since Miss Jen doesn't seem to be making anyheadway with the jerks I think it might be time really show them how bad it could become. Placing caches just anywhere, not followingf guidelines at all and say placing 20 at a time in specific spots then activating one until it gets picked up then 2 - 4- 8 ect as they spend more and more time gathering "trash". It woundn't take too many folks to do this either. One good thing about our recovering the caches Sat was that when i took a nasty header the ammo can on my back took the brunt of the fall.
  19. Cache Logs January 3 by Notaranger (8 found) This cache has been removed per ABDSP new geocaching policy. btw...nice try. That is fine with me, the part I could live without would be the comments like................" nice try" or................"just out picking up trash" Hey, I noticed she logged it as a find! Nice. She logs them as she tells us they are gone. But I thought she didn't remove it? If Notaranger wants to earn some smilies she can go grab our caches up in Indianhead, Coyote, Granite, Whale...and if they aren't there I'll allow it as a virtual log! Good Times! I had a thought. I am considering hiking out to these caches as they are removed and then making little piles of things as a remembrance of the cache . You know a few candles on tin cans, some small toys, perhaps a ribbon or 2. then we could sit down drink a six pack and leave those as well. That way anyone following would realize that other nice folks have been there. Not those nasty geocachers that clean things up.
  20. Gee thanks for the great Christmas Present!!!!!! Merry Christmas to all and a happy healthy New Year.
  21. Big congrats for Miragee hitting the big 3000 Saturday
  22. Aluminum poles are noisy in my opinion, so a wooden staff with rubber tip seems to me more suitable for enjoying the peace and quite of trails. The other problem with aluminum hiking staffs is that user's often flail them around as in pointing at things. That can be pretty disconcerting when standing near them if they flail the staffs near your face. Yep, it happens. Harmon Old (did I say Old?) buddy, I thought you had hiked with Jodi before. I would rather she be wielding the light aluminum poles around vice the heavy wooden staff (who says staff other than Gandolf?) She is very dangerous. Hikers2, go with the young guns input on this one!! Why I oughta ... Clankity-clank, scrape-scrape, clack-clack ... why did the birds stop singing? "Wielding" you say? ... my point exactly. Sorry, lost my head 'cause I just spent a couple of weeks of my vacation with five other hikers that used them danged noisy, telescopin', compassin', snake-stabbin', chromatically shockin' (spoils photos,) aluminum-pole contraptions. Fun to watch them try to log a find ... container, lid, logsheet, ziplock, GPS, PDA, cell phone, water bottle, and fashionable hiking-pole all in hand. Yeah, and what about lightening strikes! Y'all gonna die! Aluminum for seesies. Eighty-six percent of aluminum hiking-pole users wear unbunched socks! Now I feel all better. Jodi, you're such a sweetheart ... love y' babe. No wait, that's what they said back in the olden days huh? Sup now? Harmon p.s. John Muir used and Splashette uses a wooden hiking "stick," so there, who can argue with success like theirs? My hiking stick is called a 'Whistle Stick'. There's not a whistle on it, so who knows where they got the name for it. It's not heavy at all and isn't as big as CTY Yankee's. (I'm finding it hard to find the correct words here) Splashette The word would be "staff" but I'm not going to say so what with being in enough trouble already with Jahoadi as it is. With regard to "whistle stick," here's the scoop on that. Whistle Stick Depends on the type of wood, for example green Willow can be used to make whistles. Being light weight as you say suggests that it could easily be carved as a whistle and thus is the right sort of wood for a Whistle Stick. A whistle could be used to drown out some of the noise from aluminum hiking poles. Try carving an aluminum pole. I like to have the pair of aluminum poles, don't have the carvings but they are sure scratched up enough. without their assist in climbing the hills I'd never be able to keep up with the likes of Miragee, Dillweed, Jahodie. Notice I only try and keep up with the ladies. The picture of me and the poles are on my profile but darned if I know how to post it here. GFETE
  23. Thank You I really feel bad that a lot of this last 250 caches were in the areas that were devistated by the fires. I had been (at CTYankees suggestion) trying to raise the level of difficulty of my caches including Black Mountain, Mt Woodson, Santa Ysable Preserve, Holenbeck and Horesethief Canyon. All seem to have been hit hard. I'm just glad that so few lives were lost.
