Software You Use While Geocaching
programmer64 replied to avroair's topic in GPS technology and devices
I am a little on the fanatical side. First I use a little utility called First to find It updates me every 15 minute as to any new cache based on a PQ. (He also has several other utilities I find quite useful) I use GSAK on the laptop (Which is always with me) Wireless internet is great. I use it to generate Microsoft S&T maps with all unfound caches, to send all the waypoints to my GPS unit, and it generates a webpage with all the info you might need(As long as you update right before you go out if you aren't wireless). I load the webpages to my pda and carry that to the cache. I use a garmin GPSMAP60cs with Map Source roads and recreation and city select maps. I also just started using Trimble Maps. -
What method would you recommend for setting the stuff on fire......from a distance? Isn't the burning of this stuff one of the jobs that we pay the DEA cops to do? NO!! We pay them to grow it and distribute it. And by the way if someone was really growing you'd be able to smell it. Marijauna plants DO have a pretty strong odor.

Ya Gotta Mark The Outside Of Your Caches!
programmer64 replied to jayemgee's topic in General geocaching topics
Thats why all my caches have those led timers on the outside of them, so noone will think its a bomb! -
caching in on technology

Things like this really make this community of individuals from all over the globe with different beliefs, different backrounds, and assorted personalities feel like one big happy family of geeky adventurists! (No offense intended) Great job Jeremy that family will probably get a big kick outta caching.

Fake Coordinates For Long-distance Multis
programmer64 replied to shunra's topic in General geocaching topics
I just psted a puzzle cache and was asked to change the bogus coords because they where too far off. Like 20 miles, made sense to me no point in someone going to look for a cache that is nowhere near them. -
Messing With Other Cacher's Minds
programmer64 replied to Sparrowhawk's topic in General geocaching topics
how about a defunct HORNETS nest as the cache container, But hidden in a tree trunk? Found one like this recently! -
sorry but people would figure them out.

I'LL BE GETTING SOME OF THESE AS SOON AS MY POKERCHIPS RUN OUT!

The First "no Members" Cache
programmer64 replied to radioscout's topic in General geocaching topics
Who gives a crap if someone deletes a log. I know how many caches I have found and that's all that matters. maybe someone will eventually delete his cache! -
A Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy Cache Game

about 400 in a 20 mile radius

thats because you log onto GC.com when you view online.

yea lets give non cachers a reason to start searching the woods for stuf to steal and vandalize.

always leave a cahe better than you found it, condition wise that is. don't move it because you think a spot 35 feet away is beter. I had that happen twice with same cache. nothing worse than going to do maintenance and not being able to find your own cache!
-
Actually I just perused the cache in reference and I am pretty sure I know the "KEY". unfortunately I will not share the info as I would like to find it myself come spring.

1)I like to hide caches to bring people to places they might otherwise overlook. 2)I am truly evil and I enjoy placing truly challenging caches that make the finder work for the swag. (I always stock these caches with great swag, no mctoys). I just placed a 5 stage multi with 4 micros and an ammo box. All the micros are camoflaged, and well hidden, the first 4 cachers had to email me for a hint. here are a couple: #1 OK, that was hard. Went out today with high hopes, and ran into MikeOtt wandering around at stage 1. We found it and went on to stage 2, where we found McCambJD wandering around. The three of us found that. Coords were right on for both, though reception was kind of jumpy. Went on to stage 3. Nothing. Ransacked the forest, followed all the jumpy signals. Nothing. At last, we all had to head to work, so decided to concede this round... #2 Found stage 1 with some effort (very nice job on the hide) and began to suspect I was in trouble. Got to stage 2 and searched around for 20 minutes before MikeOtt and Goldlocks appeared. Intros were made and we all looked around and Mike found stage 2. Went off to stage 3 and spent about an hour looking around. My coords were jumping around like a horny toad in a microwave (or something like that). This is a tough one, I may need a hint... #3 first fiders log YeeeeeeeeeHaw ! I was out here EARLY today to beat the FTF'rs to this very difficult micro madness multi...Thank GOD there is no snow on the ground , yet. The third stage was not that hard to find after 64 helped me alittle. My wife found stage 1 , I got lucky with 2 and 4. The last stage was a bear for me. The way this cache was hidden killed me when I found it. I was out at stage 5 for at least 50 minutes.Scorched earth. I was not leaving this spot until I found it. YOu know how they always say it's in the last place you look ? There were NO, and I mean NO places I hadn't looked in a 50 foot radius. Then, there it was. The numbers were bouncing form 8 feet to 60 and back to 25 over and over and over.... TOOK the FTF prize and swapped out items, think I picked up a sig item. Thanks for the challenge...I guess I 'm a real geocacher now ! I live for this!!!!

nice hidden in July and no finders yet, If it's still unfound in spring I'll take a crack at it I am pretty good at cracking code. And it appears to me the the key is right on the cache page folks. I could be wrong though.
