Pulaski, The Pirates will bring theirSony Mavica it will do 1216 X 912 and records on Floppy so you can take it with you right on the spot. Also converts on the fly to 640 X 480 for down load areas that restrict the bytes size of the jpeg files. Even if you find something higher we will have it there for recording other candid and cache photo's. The Pirate

MissJenn Since we will all have a chance to meet face to face it would be great to have folks bring with them all there favorite equipment for finding a cache. At some point if there is sufficient participation we could do a kind of "show and tell" for equipment. Like if any one uses external antenna or DGPS etc. Also great to tell about you’re best techniques for finding the cache in that final circle of estimated error. ie compase search pattern etc. The Pirate [] and The Pirate Wench []

I would like to find and follow a TB that someone created. The way I see it I have three ways to find it. All I know is the name of the TB. It's is a relatively new release (within a month). After looking at the TB gallery through the latest 200 or so TB's I didn't find it. That's somewhat a hard way now that there are so many. It may not have a jpeg picture I don't know. I missed the cache it went into when it was released so don't have a number to put a watch on it. And since it went half across the US from Florida to Mass. a state with lots of caches to go to try and find it. Is there any other option other than scrolling 22-24 TB's at a time to go through over 1,000 TB's to find it when there may not be a picture of it. Or anything easier than searching all the Geocaches in the state of Mass. Or troubling the owner by emailing the them and asking for the number? Guess it would be nice if there was a searching engin or method on the TB page... Any thoughts??? AARGH!!! The Pirate[]

For my income and my 2 cents the most difficult cache is Necker Cache (British Virgin Islands) http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_details.asp?ID=1052 (N18 27.080 W 064 45.047) It will cost me $10,000 plus air fare to visit this cache. I have the nautical charts of the area and have studied it well. There is only on entrance by water to a guarded pier. There is only one entrance by air and that by heliocopter and you must have permission to land as a guest. Even as a Sailor and Scuba diver I can't cross the reefs on the opsite side of the island an sneak ashore on the private land. Not that I am suggesting I would ever consider doing such a thing. This give real meaning to a Difficulty level 5. I think is is not properly identified. I belive it is a 5.5 because it is nearly impossible. AARGH [] The Pirate

If you don't get wonder woman to Hawii The Pirate and Pirate Wench are heading to Las Vagas in July. We have a travel bug of our own to turn into the wild and we can always take wonder woman with us. Just a thought. We will see what you all do first. AARGH!! The Pirate
