  1. SpookyMike is the ONLY geocacher I have met in the field. He seemed a pleasant enough fellow - I would guess close to retirement age. Not the sort to resort to such shenanigans as this thread suggests. Hey he brought his dad geocaching with him...how bad could he be?

    My minimal kit is 2 quarts of water, a cell phone, a digital camera, and a Swiss Army knife. This is for the caches in the city area. If I am going into the desert, the kit contains much more. 1 gallon of water per person and/or dog, signal mirror, flashing strobe, extra batteries, ham radio, pepper foam, a defensive pistol, and a well-equipped first aid kit. Add more or less as you see what you need.


     

    You carry a gallon of water per person? I imagine it's pretty empty by the time you reach the cache. Must be thirsty work carrying all that water.

  4. A cache I am watching out for was visited by a person with a pretty big t-bug. If this person had only put the t-bug in the cache container and left everything else out he still wouldn't have been able to even come close to sealing the tupperware container.

     

    So instead he uses the plastic bag in the cache to dump all the contents into (including the bug) which he then places on the ground. He puts the empty container on the bag and doesn't bother to put the lid on or to hide the cache. What is up with that?

     

    P.S. People please think for a minute when deciding on a bug. I am going to have a hard time finding a home for this bug. I'm not sure it'll fit in an ammo container. It's big!

    Ah, I remember Dutch Springs. I took my Rescue Diver course there. It was windy and bitterly cold that day. So cold that I resorted to changing in one of the portapotties.
