  1. Has the cache been found yet? If not, then the CO probably will not be giving out hints.

     

    It is considered bad form to ask for help solving a puzzle on the forums.

     

    You might want to attend a few events in the area and meet some of the local cachers. You might come across some that would enjoy partnering with you to solve some puzzles.

     

    But to discuss it here would leave a permanent trail for anyone else. That's not kosher.

     

    Yes plenty of people have found it

    I am well aware that your not supposed to discuss a puzzle if it hasnt been solved

  2. :blink: Ugh! :lol: I have a terrible fear of snakes, which makes me dangerous if you're a snake of any variety. If I see a snake and know it isn't poisonous then I'll leave it alone. Otherwise said snake becomes snake + lead.

     

    Looking at that cache with the copperhead next to it made me wonder though if maybe there isn't some kind of snake repellent you could use around the cache itself. Snakes, so my parents said, hate moth-balls. The problem with those is you could sniff your way to the cache LOL.

     

    Thinking of a small child sticking his or her hand near that thing scares the daylights out of me. It's bad enough when a venomous snake bites an adult, but a child....I don't even want to think about it. Thanks for the posts...this will serve me as a great reminder to make sure I carry a long stick with me, especially when I take the kids out.

     

    there should be something like that on the market

  3. My kids hate it when I bring my camera (I did as a kid too), so I didn't have it with me on our trek through the nasty back 40 when we picked up ticks and saw two copperheads on the trail.

     

    yeah seems like every time you need a camera you dont have it

  4. Two weeks ago my wife and I did a combined backpacking/geocaching trip. I heard her scream and never saw her run so fast, particularly over steep, rocky terrain with a 30 lb pack. She had almost stepped on this and it struck at her. I think it is a hog nose snake. It was kind of cool, it had a flattened hood like a cobra.

     

    Those are the coolest snakes! I've had a couple of them and they would either raise their flattened head and hiss like crazy, strike but not bite,,, and/or they would roll over and play dead, complete with tongue hanging out. :ph34r:

     

    We've seen many snakes while caching, here's three.

     

     

    Small copperhead that was coiled up under the cache

    but this weekend before heading out my sister and her boyfriend scared me with a fake snake

     

    later while Geocaching i saw a stick on the ground and thought wow that looks like the snake they scared me

     

    with...

     

    Then the stick moved lol my whole group got scared by the snake it was hilarious :D:D

  6. I was wondering who has the most finds? i heard you can compare how many you have found to the person who has fund the most in your area, where can i do this? are there any sites like that?

     

    Please help

    Thanks :):)
