  1. none of the host seen in the area... as far as i know the only communication we have is the forum and the event cache site, no contacts at all. the GZ mentioned was 80-100 meters from the tarmac and is almost on the top of the hill. stayed and wait till 2.30pm.
  2. it should be April i think
  3. Been there also... @ carbon hope you got my SMS, cant wait any longer as i have to came back to work
  4. great hope the article be forwarded to Groundspeak "Geocaching in the News" heres thier link contact@Groundspeak.com armi
  5. Wow! reaching the newspaper publicity... Gulfnews should call us to here in UAE
  6. great idea... i used to travel AUH - DXB every weekend but i couldn't see any feasible site between that emirates (there might be perhaps) let me google earth it and have i torough recon.
  7. This is great! i just visited the site recently... in this case no worries anymore... i got some order of swags from other online shops, unfortunately, there is some disputes in delivery, been already one month... still the items was sleeping in postal service.
  8. not just the nano but the number, it seems we've got a lot compare with other emirates... as what carbon hunter said "cache explosion"!!!
  9. when i started to join the geocaching, i was little bit confused on which gadget i should buy, as what said "mild to wild" is really true... until i ended up buying the Garmin Etrex Vista HCX, price is decent and imorethan enough using it as geocaching gadget,
  10. Million of Thanks guys... looking forward for a party! we'll make it event cache party
  11. I'd like to suggest Pink Rock as Earthcache, i think it has a kind of unique features and attribute that would qualify the Earthcache, but dont know how we are going to enter and what will be the characteristics that would comply the Earthcache.org guidelines. I think Carbon Hunter might help us here.

  13. I like this thread, and it cross my mind that we should create another thread for us - (AUH or UAE Geocachers) a “geocaching trip plan thread”- prior to the day, because most of our scheds are in conflict and we couldn’t know and decide on a joint venture until the closer day of the plan, not mandatory at all just if you want someone to track you , because sometimes like me (“psycho-cahers”) used to attack the dunes and remote area alone , this will help us somehow -until we got decided closer to the day- where to track us down. I was trying to rename this topic but I couldn’t get it, that’s why if you have any nice idea for the new topic title that will be great.
  14. got disappointed with DXB Urbans... desperate so much... until decided to back out and headed to Margham Al Ain Road side and Nad Al sheeba
  15. 15th May 2009 15:30 - Urban Caching in Dubai.... "traffic!!!"
  16. Thanks Carbon Hunter, for some security purpose i need to change my user names, it happened one of my email account was compromised (still lucky coz its only email)... hahaha bad luck for me... then got the idea something that will reflect with my geocaching hobby as well as me.. was trying to google earth some possible locations and spotted some place, however, need to visit the actual locations, as an idea to share i was thinking of Multiple Cache with some sort of compass offset puzzles in the case of indoor.
  17. i noticed that the cache logs are moving very slow now adays... seems every one is hiding from the sun; shopping centre would be nice or night cache perhaps.
  18. I am planning to visit some cache in Hatta and Oman soils, eventually I heard that there are post and police checkpoints at the Oman borders, could someone list down what are the requirements for you to pass the boarder, well I am aware that I need to carry the following; but still some info I need to get 1. Passport- if I don’t carry my passport with me, do they consider the Labor Card which is commonly carried by some of the expats? 2. Car Insurance – I checked my Insurance and learned that my insurance geography is United Arab Emirates only, is there any insurance company along the way or prior to the boarder and purchase some policy or at least liability policy only as you will not stay long. This are the things which I needed to get some facts, at least could someone share their experience while entering the boarders thanks and regards Armi a.k.a viga001
  19. this might wait a couple of months... most propably i'll try to reach them on September this year during my vacation... ill bring a lot of Trackables stucked from UAE
  20. Sharing my Google Calendar also Caching Calendar Date: 28th March 2009 Time: 4:00 P.M. Status: tentative Location: Margham followed by Desert Jaunt
  21. i also use nuvi for the time being... somehow its relialble and i was able to find caches... if you want to know your exact coordinates just go to main screen (where to and view maps screen) you will see on the top the sinal strength just touch that for about 5-6 seconds it will give you your exact coordinates.
