Hello from Alaska!
My name is Marcell. I bought a GPS last summer (a Garmin Oregon 400t). Trying to figure it out, however, proved to be very frustrating! SO... geocaching got forgotten about until this past weekend when my sister and her family reintroduced it to us with the Geomate Jr.
I found my first cache in Willow Resort and had so much fun. I am now very excited to begin again. Not only is it so much fun, but it is fantastic exercise. You get outside, walk/hike, and don't even really realize you are doing it. My only complaint is the darned mosquitoes here! They are laughingly called our "state bird".
I would love to "meet" some of you here- and would be thrilled to hear from anyone here in Alaska.
Thanks for reading and I look forward to learning more!
Marcell
