    Ocotillo Wells - The Great 78 CITO Event #1 (GCTEE3)

    Our first attempt; rain, snow, and 30 degrees.....I thought this was the desert?

  3. Similar to this popular signature item by DarrylW4:

    I try to keep the information about my signature items updated on my profile page, but the latest is our GPS Food:

     

    These three samples have are only nearly complete as they are missing the shrinkwrap to keep them secure and reduce exposure to the elements.

     

    For images of all the current and past Signature items, check out my Geocaching Signature Items on Flickr.

  4. I received my Bike Dog coin today. I'm impressed with final results. It is one hefty smashed penny! I'm just curious, how do I activate the coin to turn it into a travel bug?...... Go to the GeoCoin club page and fill out the information. Simple. :P

     

    Anyone recognize the Bikedog Geocoin custom icon ?

  5. I'm pretty sure C4 is busy packing up all the bikerdog coin orders and will probably announce a sale of the "balloon" coins once that's completed. There should be several hundred left over :P

     

    C4 put together an amazing geocaching event on Sunday (actually 2 events) that he put an enormous amount of time and effort into preparing.

     

    The Bikedog coins were the first priority for preparing the coins for shipping, most of those were prepared for shipping on Sunday evening at the event.

     

    From what I understand a handful of event attendees still want coins so C4 needs to take care of them first and then he needs to take a bit of a rest for himself, he must be exhausted.

     

    I don't see waiting for more than a few days before he mentions a sale date.

     

    Otherwise, you could always make a trade with someone! :P

    Cheers,

  6. Add me to the list of people who no longer has any interest in purchasing personal coins. Those aren't personal coins, but commercial coins.

     

    I've been especially disappointed with the trend of third parties minting and selling the bulk of some coins. The "owner" of the coin is just one of many buyers of a commercial coin that happens to have their geonick on it. That's about as far from a signature item as you can get.

     

    I couldn't agree more!!! If you want to make a "personal coin" trade it and ship it yourself.

     

    Also, I hate the new threads that start out as "Not an order thread" or "Just want input on..." or "What do you think about..". It's your signature item so who cares what others think....ITS YOURS so OWN IT!!

  7. Hopefully someone in here can answer these questions for FishPOET

     

    Some questions. We are trying to put together a loop for Saturday March 11 for stock 4wd vehicles starting on Hwy 78 heading West to S2 and then South to the mudcaves and then over to The Basilisk (GCPX5Q) and (GCH9C0) and (GCA44A) then back up to the campout. I have been reading cache descriptions, scouring USGS topo maps and Google Earth and reading chapter 8 from Charles Wells "So Cal Guide to Backroads and 4wd Trails" and I need some help figuring which trails connect and just how difficult they are.

    #1) Are there crossover trails from Arroyo Tapiado to Arroyo Seco del Diablo between the mudcaves and the Basilisk and how difficult are they?

     

    #2) Can you get from Harper Canyon Trail and Hwy 78 down to Fish Creek Wash Trail to the Basilisk and how difficult is it?

     

    #3) From Arroyo Seco del Diablo to Fish Creek Wash to Split Mtn Rd the guidebook rates one small section "Diablo Droppoff as difficult while the cache page description rates it as 4WD is recommended but not required. How difficult is it?

     

    Thank you for any and all information and help.
