  1. Thank you both very much for your quick and informative replies. These links are a great jumping off point, and he will be happy for the help. Thanks again!!
  2. Today while getting this cache Mine Cache We ran into a gentleman, who when hearing about Geocaching asked if there was a similar game about finding survey markers. He is doing history work on the mines in and above Big Cottonwood Canyon in Utah, and has found many of these markers, but would like help in finding more. I explained what little I know about benchmark hunting, and told him that I would email him any coordinants I could find of nearby benchmarks. I looked for nearby Benchmarks on Geocaching.com, and found a couple nearby, but not nearly as many as he said there should be or as close to that cache as he said they should be. Do all survey markers show up on Geochaching.com, or only those that people have looked for, and is there anyone that knows how I could find the claims markers if they are not "benchmarks?"
  3. You've got my vote on that one! That is almost worth the trip to BC from Utah for that. For a newbie, what is the protocol for a sig item? Is it expected to trade another sig item?
  4. I just recently was the ftf a chache, and got a kick out of it. The cache had been there for a few days, and I didn't expect to be the first, but it was fun. I also recently placed a cache, and put in a first to find prize of a Palm Vx. I was very surprised to find that the first two cachers didn't take it, preferring to let someone else get it. I don't think the FTFers out ther are after the swag at all, at least not in my area. It is a bit of a competition, but I think it is just for the fun of it, and they are all very polite about it.
