Glad I got that one before APE was stolen then archived, being a local helped

A trifecta is just a term used for three. It's actually a bet you make in dog/horse racing picking the top three. I was merely making mention of this in the fact that I was looking to find three cache that night. That's all. Thanks. Was thinking that it was a local challenge (find 3 night caches on the fourth Thursday of the month on a cloudy night with a full moon) or something similar. <_< That makes me thinks....

After many discussions with geo-pals I wonder how you pronounce CITO. Is it SIE TOE Is it SEE TOE Is it KIE TOE or something totally different? pipe in any Lackeys for your input as well, since you guys came up with it anyways posting on FB to see results as well I am just curious as always Have fun, be safe and happy hunting

Really good point about just handing over the cache to be returned by somebody who didnt make the find. That usually means cache will not be returned to where CO originally hid it. Whoever made the original find should be the one to return as found. On a side note, go to alot of your local caching events and get to know your locals. You will start recognizing them on the trail. Have fun, be safe and happy hunting

Although I use a GPSMAP62st I purchased a handlebar mount from manufacturer for 10 bucks. I replaced zipties with slight wider and thicker ones and never had a problem. Of course I wasnt using my mountain bike in the extreme but this mount worked well for me. Part # 010-11023-00 is the same for the 20 and 62st.

Elevation listed on cache page maybe?

I assume you mean your profile's "Geocaches" page rather than your "My Finds" Pocket Query. There hasn't been any announced plan to add Lab Caches to "My Finds." There was an announced plan to add Lab Caches to portions of the profile's "Statistics" page on June 3, but I don't think that has been implemented yet. OOPS, thats what I meant. Thanks for clarifying

Tried using a Pocket Query? You don't have to run it to get caches in the search. BUT. If you want the caches you've selected you WILL need to actually run the PQ to get the gpx file. DITTO

This was by far my most favorite challenge. I started on this one when I had about 60 or so of the grid filled in. With some collaboration from a few of my geo-pals we started this in earnest. Tons of PQs from each of us and alot of research done off we went each day to compete this one. Way too $ spent on fuel, ferries ect but really worth it. As the story goes I hit a few snags along the way but persevered to the end. Lo and behold I went searching for the Final by myself but... Yup, DNFd it. Ah crap. Few days later went back and finally found it! Challenge complete. And CO of Washington Fizzy gave me an 81 Coin to boot, cant beat that. Challenges aren't to everyones liking but I Really enjoyed this one.

Thank you Groundspeak and all the GS Lackeys who got this one up and running. Not sure how I will ever use these stats but it looks good to see them in My Finds now. Have Fun, Be Safe and Happy Hunting

pretty much depends on where hide is located, and even that can change over time I once found a cache at base of tree on a cliff overlooking Puget Sound when I heard crashing noises from above and at my feet landed an expired bunny, looking up saw an eagle-YIKES unfortunately in my area some urban areas we have seen plenty of trash including drug needles, I always look very closely before reaching...

You press a button and then displayed the coordinate for few seconds. totally and very cool, how many favorite points does this have so far?

you can do almost anything you want to lead searcher to next stage in a multi. here is one example GC2G3QP

Hosting a few events inviting newbies/smartphone only users might help as well. Education is always paramount for the enjoyment of the masses. Pass on your experience and knowledge but then again I am only a noob, so there is my 2 cents worth

When I place I try to get as perfect spot-on coords as possible. to me its all about the hide/camo of container that makes the hide, and location too of course. Using multi gizmos and checking those coords in maps or Google Earth etc helps too have fun, be safe and happy hunting

I dont think so, thinking if it is not completely accessible (meaning reachable too) that it should not have the attribute. Thinking if I was going to launch one and using the attribute I would find a good location then actually place it using a wheelchair. One other thought is if you used the wheel attribute but it was not reachable, you could add the TOTT attribute and specify in listing that a grabber tool was needed. ok, there is my 2 cents worth

Got kinda tired of some of the BS with GCing so took some time off. Besides life was kinda intruding. But...I am back. Can rant about alot of the BS but wont, enough of that on here. Anybody else take or took a break and are now back? Whats your story?

All of this COs hides are highly recommended. Each and everyone I have found were unique and fun. thanks for all of them GOBLINDUST

I push the Stealth Mode button on my GPSr and just make the daring grab, sign and return container. J/K I have found you attract alot less attention if you just go for it rather than trying to be sneaky.

do you clear coat them so paint doesnt easily chip off?

Had to use cell camera once (took pic of container/open logbook away from GZ so as not to give away hide). Emailed CO first for permission.

I blatantly advertised my first Multi on Facebook. Published as a MOC this made it even harder to attract seekers. Slowly but surely it is getting found. My experience with Multis is they get found the least...most cachers go for the easy ones. But the ones that do go after a quality Multi usually offer cool log entries and that is whats its all about, at least to me. Have fun, be safe and happy hunting

find a very cool park or scenic spot, get permission to build make a bench, not an ordinary bench but on with an ammo can or large storage area for log, trackables etc that is accesses by geocachers only maybe with a coded lock or.... let your imagination go wild get permission

GC2B0QE now archived found an old Motorola pager in a cache one day....and it got me to thinking so I took a bison and found that it was almost the same dimensions as a AA battery machined bison to AA size, carefully peeled a real AA battery label off and adhered to the bison stuck it in the pager and clipped it to a hedge branch I took many coords and got perfect published and it still took everyone way too long to find had to finally archive because dang geocachers destroyed the bush ended up giving it to a GC Lackey and waiting for it to re-publish somewhere in the Pacific NW sorry about the blurry pics but you get the idea
