  1. You could tattoo the GoundSpeak logo on your thumb, that way when you take a picture of your GPS then they would know it's truly you. They would know it's truly you...until someone else tattooed the logo on their thumb. How about this alternative: Take a "selfie" picture. Even better, you could just have a piece of paper with your name on it along with the date in the picture somewhere. Takes just moments to do it.
  2. I love Multi Caches, but I agree it seems they're unpopular. In my opinion, I think the majority of people avoid them because they can only log one "find" after finding all of the caches in a multi - where as they could search for just as many traditional caches and get a bunch more log-able finds.
  3. I'd say no. I know if I were searching for a cache and came upon a bear trap, welded shut or not, I sure wouldn't try and touch it.
  4. 1. How did you first hear about geocaching? Honestly, I don't remember. 2. Tell me about your first cache? My first cache was the Orlando Airport TB Hotel. I picked this one because I knew the location very well (at the time, the cache was about a five minute walk from my house), but never knew there was something like this hidden! 3. Have you had any bad/scary experiences caching? Not really, but I was a bit spooked while searching for take it back. after reading some of the things other people posted. 4. What is the #1 reason you geocache? Fun. Me and my father have a lot of fun caching - also, it's something thats very inexpensive, but still entertains us for hours a day. It can also be quite a challenge! It's also pretty neat finding places I've never seen before, yet are very close to my home. Why, just today, I found a city park and county library I never knew existed, only two miles from my house! 5. Do you prefer to hunt or hide? Hunt. I love searching for the caches and trading neat little trinkets out of them. Hiding is fun too, but sometimes it's just so hard to find somewhere to hide one! 6. What was your favorite cache place? Why? Where Shopping is a Pleasure 2 is definitely up there as one of my favorites. The cache is literally right in the open (planted on a stop sign!) but very hard to find if you aren't looking for it. 7. What was your worst cache? Why? I highly dislike mirco, or even more so "nano", caches. Most of them are only difficult because they are just too hard and little to see, not because it's hidden well. Another I disliked was one that was an ammo can just lying under a bush. Not hidden besides camo paint. What's the point of placing a cache if you aren't even going to try to hide it, other than camo paint and a little bit of brush? 8. Have you ever attened a cache event? Nope. 9. Tell me your best caching story? Don't have one really, I'm still pretty much a geo-noob. Although, State's Zig Zag was fun - we're from Florida and on a trip up to my Grandparent's house in New Jersey, we checked it out. We got DNF'ed, but we came back almost a year later and looked in the one spot we didn't the year before and found it.
  5. My record is 8 in one day, 30 or so miles, about 4 hours. I know, 4 hours is a long time, but I set this record on my first day geocaching, so I didn't expect it to be fast.
  6. Hello, I'm new to geochaching, and do not have a GPS. This means I don't know what to get. I looked for the cheapest receiver with a map I could find - I'm on a budget - and I found the Lowrance iFinder GO. Now, this has a map and everything, but is only 80$. This seems really cheap, and thats what has me concerned. Is there a catch to why this is so cheap, or what? Thanks everyone, LazerZero
  7. I found out about it from a post on forums.therianthropy.org. Read it, went to the link, and it hooked me.
