Signor Rosso

My hair is strawberry blonde and I like Italian words so, Signor-Mr. Rosso-Red------->Mr. Red!

When you're not a premium member and you check the geocaching website at least ten times a day, just because it's geocaching.

The cache that I am trying to figure out is called "Bridge View", or GCGW1W. I don't know what it means by check sum and bearings. I've never done a geocache that requires a check sum, so can you explain what it is I'm supposed to do? I really would like to find this cache. Then there is the coordinates factor. How are you supposed to get the coordinates of the cache? Any help would be appreciated.

Seeing as the iPad is a little bit bulky for geocaching I would say stick to urban caches like others have said. I think the iPad would be great for putting in hints and other key information into it, but as for taking it on long hiking trips through water, mud, etc. (even while in a backpack) I think that would be a bad idea. Then again it is yours, but if I had a $500-$830 device to geocache with I would either leave it in my car or at home.

Maybe carve something in an eagle shape out of a log or a piece of wood, drill a little hole in it, put in a container and put it in the woods? Might be a little time consuming, but it would be worth it!

Two things. 1. There are about 25 million iPads sold in the world. Now this may seem like a lot, but if you think about it there needs to be a demand in order to make an actual app for the iPad. Nowadays almost everyone has a smartphone so that is why they have apps for both the iPhone and the Android phones. The demand is there for the phones, but not tablets. . . . yet. With the iPad it is different because not everyone HAS one. 2. If you are hungering for Facebook integration why not just tell all your friends about it on there? Just post on your Wall, "I like Geocaching". Those that are intrigued will probably ask you about it and those that don't, oh well. Or, even better yet, why don't you take some of your friends on a geocaching trip? They will know how much you enjoy it and might even want to go on more expeditions with you. That's my two cents.

Say you lost your marbles and then ask and see if they want to help you find them. Kidding aside, tell the truth. Those that usually ask want to know what you are doing so just go ahead and tell them!

I would say just good ol' plain regular batteries. It doesn't really matter if you get lithium or rechargeable batteries as long as they get the job done. In other words get the "Git R Done" batteries.

Hey don't hit on Spacebook or Myface! (Sorry couldn't resist)

Aww shoo! Sometimes you are going to meet people like that. Take his advice with a pinch of salt and keep on caching!

Boots. You can never go wrong with boots because you never know if there is water in the area that is 1 inch deep or 1 foot deep.

I like the idea of a cache like this. It's different than the ones in a dead tree, or under a lampost skirt. Go for it man. Don't care what other people think about the cache location, because in the end there will be still people who search for it either for the numbers or to be the first to find. Good luck on the cache!
