We were the first to find so we didn't know there was a better way...but yes I did ruin a pair of chestwaders...but it was soooo worth it!

As the FTF geodiver and I used chestwaders ..which I threw away after the find because they were complete destroyed. Have fun

Thanks Jo!

Excellent Let's do Thursday!

The NCCE Conference is in Seattle this year. The geocaching booth has been a huge success for 5 years now. 3,000 teachers will attend this year's conference @ the Washington State Convention Center We needed experienced geocachers to teach the teachers how to geocache...It's a ton a fun! We have 3 shifts: Thursday, March 4 8:00 - 12:00 12:00 - 4:00 Friday, March 5 8:00 - 12:00 Would you like to help?

The results are in! 3,000 more people know about geocaching and Groundspeak. 300 actually attempted our course in Freeway Park 1 winner of the nuvi 750, Clay Roonsaville of Grants Pass, OR Next conference: back to Portland, Theme: Navigating the New World of Technology...Pirates!, Feb 17 -20 2009 Fractal, PDXMarathonman...you guys ready for the fun?

No need to bring anything...but you can bring any geocaching items you'd like to show off. I'll be at the geocaching booth on the 4th floor of the convention center...follow the signs to the NCCE conference registration...(it's around the corner from were it was 3 years ago weightman). I'll be there at 7 am. GeoDiver! can't wait to see you again! The bad news is the coordinates are lousy. It is hard to get a good signal next to the Union buildings! I finished all preparations today...We're ready to roll. Thursday will be our busiest day. Glenn
