  1. There was a little discussion of some folks wanting a gpx file made for the trip, and I am a willing sucker to build it up and make it available. I will make it from loc files, so it should be compatible with Jeremy's concerns about sharing GC gpx files.

     

    I can't find a list of caches that are planned. The pdf that was put together of the route does not share the names or the waypoint in anyway I want to deal with it. Does someone have a list that they can provide to me?

     

    Thanks,

    Rob

    Look up a few posts. Allanon has a post with a link to one of his bookmarks.

  2. I really want to try to make this event.  I've already done MM, but thats beside the point.... it sounds like a lot of fun.

     

    However.... after my recent accident at Boulder River, I dont think I can drive that far.  Anyone in the north end have room for a cripple?

    If you can drive as far south as Federal Way I am still looking for passanges to ride in the Land Rover.

    For anyone else the first three to ask are in.

  3. Okay so I never believed Grandpa when he told me he walked 5 miles to school in the snow, UPHILL both ways until now. That being said I still had a great time. Mmmmm the Frito Pies were the perfect ending to a terrific morning in the mountains, sorry you missed out Anonymous', I guess you'll have to keep wondering about the infamous "Frito Pies.”

    Thanks to RWW for setting this up, hope the wrist is not too bad, and all those that helped with the Frito Pies and provided great company.

  4. That's what I told him. But I'm not sure that's enough to convince him, we'll see.

    Ahem, let me quote from the cache page:

     

    The Boulder River Trail is family friendly, including your four-legged family members. The hike is 4.5 miles to the river and lunch so the kids should not have too much difficulty getting there. On the way back just keep walking, they'll keep up.

     

    That applies to dads as well. He can always just wait for you at the first cache and read a book until you come back. ;)

    Naw, I'm pretty sure I can convince him to go

    You could always through yourself down on the floor, and scream "I wanna go, I wanna go" over and over again while pounding your head and feet and fists on the floor. :lol:;);)

  5. No puddles at 30MPH I promise, 25 maybe but not 30. :blink:  ;)  ;)

    Now behave yourself, LR. You need those tires for June 4. :)

    I found Sugarloaf, my 2nd watchtower cache at an elevation of over 5800', this week end while in Leavenworth and not a single flat tire on the Land Rover did get a little muddy though. Of course I did take it a little easier as I was all by myself. :)

  6. I will be coming up from Federal Way and am willing to stop along the way to pick up anyone that wants a ride, I have 3 xtra seats. I will be comming up I-5 so if you're on the route and want a ride let me know. If your'e comming from farther south and want to stop in FW not a problem either.

    No puddles at 30MPH I promise, 25 maybe but not 30. ;):blink::)

  7. Kevgraub,

    Are you going to own the die, or will it be made public. For example, I order 250 chips from you, then I give them all out, could I go directly to the manufacturer to get more, could I have another die made for the other side so that I have the Geocaching logo on one side and my own signature logo on the other side instead of putting on stickers? I'm not trying to step on any toes here just looking at more possibilites for this cool idea of yours.

  8. Fine...just leave me out in the cold...all by my lonesome...

    Touché... :)

     

    But hey, I'm not forcing you to go to Leavenworth today... :)

    Have fun tonight.

    Hopefully I will be getting some nice caches too. I'll try to avoid any flat tires up in the hills, especially without a pit crew.

  9. Don't blame me, I'm just a follower this time. :D

     

    Mommy says I can drive again if I can get three pasangers to chip in for gas.

    Be warned that if you ride in the Land Rover you must be willing to be be part of the pit crew.

     

    Back under I go. :D

  10. I think we should be able to make it. What exactly are these fabled frito pies I've heard so much about?

    Frito pies are not to be explained (under penalty of the Nolenator) they are to be experienced.

  11. I'm in so long as the timing is right. For me this weekend is right out as I will be out of town.

    Memorial Day Weekend I will be doing the Boulder River on Saturday the 28th (I think that is when it hike is scheduled for) but there is still Sunday & Monday.

  12. We've taken tha grand daughters a couple of times, 5 years & 6 months. Although I rarely do any trading I make sure that I have plenty of swag when they go with. The 5 year old usually wants to leave the stuff in the cache alone and take something out of my bag-o-swag.

  13. Yum!  A cheese sandwich on white bread!  Wrapped in a plastic 7-11 bag!

     

    The cache was pretty out in the open, so I re-hid it after removing the sandwich this afternoon.

     

    I can't bring myself to throw it away yet.  Hmmm... how can I make a TB out of the sandwich without violating the "no food in caches" rule?  :rolleyes:

    Just turn into a TB then it won't be food it will be a TB :rolleyes:
