When are you going to hide it so I can 'offically' find it?

Untrue, most transport takes place in the cambial layer, which is just under the bark layer. You remove a strip of bark around a tree, you kill it. A cable placed tightly around a tree will usually do the same over a period of years as the tree grows. Sometimes it will grow around it, depending on the species of tree.

Maybe you should learn what it looks like.

We just had our first Mich. get together last weekend. The organizer Rusty, got there early, picked a spot in the grass, let his GPSr average for 30 min, used string to measure the spot and recorded the coordinates. We all had to try to get closest to the spot and place a flag. Kind of like in golf, closest to the pin wins. Couple hours later when we all placed our flags, they were all clusted near each other, 40' away from the spot, even Rusty's.

Just want to say "Welcome home Capt Prozac."

Couple weeks ago, I was looking at caches in northern Mich., saw one hidden by a couple, wife's name matched someone at work, I copied the page, took it in and asked, "Is this yours?" "YOU DO THIS TOO? ISN"T IT GREAT?" Small world.

I don't know of any bug owners who would object to what you did. You told him your plans, if he had a problem with them, all he would have to do is email you. You both have communication with each other which is the main thing. If your plans change, all you need do is send another email and ask what he would like you to do. Much better than sitting in a cache wondering when it's going to move, he knows when it will.

Just as Maj. Bach said earlier, I'm glad I'm not a woman. I can't imagine what it would be like to have to always think "what would I do if" everytime I step into an unfamiliar area. I have gone solo on all but a couple of my finds. I too have strange hours, so it's easier for me to go by my self. Is there any other RN's with your schedule? What about someone with your schedule at another facility that you could get addicted.

BTW, Magellan has a $20 rebate on the 315 and 320 through June. I think they are clearing them out for the next generation GPSr's. You can problably get a good deal on them.

First of all, welcome to the addiction David. This is a great activity for the family. You can get GPSr's at any outdoor store and any unit will work, from the least to most expensive unit. The more you pay the more bells and whistles you get. I'm still using an out of production Garmin that only tracks 8 birds. All now can track 12. The manufactures all have warrenties, so it wouldn't matter where you bought it. BTW, if you do it in the rain, put the unit in a ziplock, even waterproof units can fry. I just did this to a new magellan 315 with drips from my kayak paddle. Fortunatly, it was only 2 days old. This all started in 2000 when SA was turned off, I discovered it in June 2001 from a newspaper article, and have been hooked since. Your going to have a lot of fun with this.

I have never gotten any spam from the geocaching site. Jeremy goes out of his way to prevent any spam from getting to you. Way to go Jeremy!!

Welcome to the addiction Capt. Joe. Even though both of the caches you have found are burried, as a general rule, caches are not burried so people are not digging up "the whole area". Even in a beach environment, it should be avoided if possible. The more you find, the more ideas you'll get as to ways to hide and find them. Have fun with your hunts.

I have a question for those who want lots of clues to help them find the cache. How well do you remember the drive up caches. Personnaly, I remember the difficult ones the most. I wish I could get down to Ashland to find yours, they sound fun.

Is it archived or disabled. With the disabled, you'll have a re enable link on your cache page. To unarchive a cache, I believe you have to email Jeremy and he'll do it.

This is trash, just like the one NEPA found last fall that was placed on a whim.

There is or was one at Denver Airport, and there is/was one in Ohio near the intersection of 2 interstates.

There's 2 boxes for the N/S and 2 for the E/W coords. Use these. Degrees in the first, minutes and decimal in the second.
