[Any way to see who is watching a Cache?]

I see that one other person besides myself is watching a cache I placed (still unvisited). Is there any way to figure out who it is?

[What Benchmarks are you drooling over?]

I got one that is .4 miles away after a fairly long and difficult hike through oak brush following a pretty rugged 4WD drive. I didn't realize the other mark was so close until I got back to the office and logged this one:

[What do you think about a "Log book only" cache?]

Thanks for the input. I think I'll hide it and see what happens. It is a big enough container that if others wanted to populate it with stuff there is plenty of room. I basically didn't want to hide one with just a bunch of junk in it and that is all I have right now.

I have been looking at this location for about 2 months now thinking it would be a great location for a cache, 400 ft. elevation gain in .12 miles but what a great spot....

[How do I sort caches by difficulty?]

I would like to find some caches that are really hard to get to (ropes?). Is there any way to sort caches this way? Any ideas?

[What do you think about a "Log book only" cache?]

I was just thinking about hiding a new one and only putting a log book inside. Does anyone do this, does it "ruin" the hunt if there aren't goodies inside?

[Looking for stuff to put in your cache?]

Try this site. They have tons of stuff that should be great for a cache. The prices are reasonable too.

Been using the N.G. TOPO! for about a month now. It is fantastic! If you have a big hard drive you can load the CD data to it and it saves you having to insert the correct CD for the part of the state you want to look at. Very nice product and only a hundred bucks.

[How much do you spend on your cache?]

How much do you have invested in your cache? Total cost, container, goodies, and log book included.

My boy ( 10.5 months) from a benchmark hunt this weekend.

[Any good PDA software out there?]

I tried it a couple different ways and no deal

Does anyone use software on their PDAs in conjunction with Geocaching or Benchmark finding? I've got a Handspring Visor and am always looking for new software for it.

[Does "BM" on a USGS topo map mean there is a Bench Mark there?]

I've seen a few and was wondering if I go out there if I will find a Bench Mark. Thanks!

[So USGS monuments don't show up?]

I found a USGS monument but it doesn't seem to show up when I punch in the coordinates and do a search. Anywere to log it?

[How do I add a picture (or 2) to my first cache description?]

I just entered my first cache and have some pictures that would be helpful to anyone looking for it. Is there a way to add them to the description? Thanks
