Hiking sticks are a must have. There are many benefits to taking a hiking stick with you when walking in the woods.They are great for knocking down cobwebs, poking and prodding in the brush, making sure there are no snakes under a fallen tree, helping you keep your balance on those steep inclines, putting chipmunks and playing pinata with the beehives. I have one that I have been using now for several months and I can't believe I ever went to the woods without it.

It seems to me that it is not only bad to walk on a path but is just as bad to go off path. So you can't win for losing. I just havea hard time believing that a plant that gets "pushed" out of the way is in any real danger of certain death, I mean come on they sit out in the woods everyday of their lives in the heat and cold, maybe even freezing solid, and you know what, that plant is still there. It also runs the risk of being eaten by a violent and deadly deer. One thing to keep in mind is we are jsut as much a part of this environmnent as a deer and I have a very hard time swallowing that the earth can't handle me taking a hike through the woods. The KGB

Maybe this is a good lesson in deferred gratification. In the microwave minute world we all live in now, maybe it's a good lesson for a young boy to see that sometimes you have to wait for what you want and even then it may not be what you expect. I think the folks that have taken your bug to place it seem to communicate very well with you and are doing this for the fun and game of it just like they are supposed to do. I think it's wonderful to hear the stories of families doing this together and espically father and sons. I wouldn't sweat it too much just explain that this is a game and we may have to wait a bit for the bug to move, and then you will get to see all of the cool places that it travels. The KGB

What exactly does GPSr stand for, I have seen it many times but was never able to look at the context of the message to get the meaning. Sorry for the total newbie question, espically if this is an easy one, in which case I will wait for the answer and then delete the thread hahahaha Thanks in advance The KGB

It seems to me to be like everyting else, you need to "follow the money". When someone is able to make money off of a "cause" that cause will never go away. They talk about global warming, but people will believe what they want to believe. You can get equal number of scientist on the issue, 1/2 say global warming is occuring the other 1/2 says global warming is a flasehood. My personal opinion is that the weatherman can't accurately tell me what the weather will be like a year from now on this date, so how can he tell me what is goin to happen 100 years form now with anymore accuracy. There is evidence to support both sides. When the head of the Sierra Club marches on paper mills and lumber companies for cutting down trees, spiking trees etc... nobody seems to take notice when the same man clear cuts several acres of land on his own property ,which is quite extensive, to help cover the cost of his taxes. Follwo the money. Is my walking on the ground going to cause the end of the world. I remember in the 80's experts like Ted Danson form "Cheers" warning us that the 90's will lead to thousands od deats from flooding due to global warming, tat Florida would be covered in water for miles inland. I am 15 miles from the beach and it still looks the same to me. I will walk where I want to walk. I think the earth is a pretty tough place and is able to recover pretty well. We have had millions of years of volcanos,spewing ash and lave for hunders of thousands of miles and the earth is still here. We have had millions of years of floods, earthquakes, tornados, mudslides and forest fires and the earth is still here, still green and I can still breathe very well. My house in not underwater and the summer here in Florida is going to be hot and the winter next year is going to be cold, but nor South Dakota cold and it has nothing to do with global warming. As far back as I can remember it has always been hot in summer and cold in winter, some more mild than others and some more severe than others. I think using common sense is all that can be asked. I mean don't clutter up the woodd with beer cans, but don't be afraid to go "off trail" and walk through mother nature, it is there and is wonderful to appreciate. My feet are not instruments of destruction and my walking or driving on the ground will not announce the second coming. COMMON SENSE WOULD DO THIS WORLD A BUNCH OF GOOD> Just my humble opinion.

I have a real newbie question. I have an ETrex Legend, it says it is WAAS enabled, do I need to do anything to turn it on or is it in the software? What do I need to know about it, I have read some things on Garmin.com but don't understand if this is something that I need to make work or if it is already working. Sorry for the Newbie question but just trying to figure it out. The KGB

well thats easy enough, thank you very much! The KGB

Does anyone know if there are plans for an external antennae or if there is already one available and if so where. The KGB

I think the best way to do this would be to print it on the instruction card. Maybe put on there where you would like toe bug to go and maybe the time you would like to have it makes its way back to the original cache. Probably won'tget back to the original if it has a long travel, looks like a lot of them that I have seen on this site, tend to hang around the same area. Maybe even offering to pay shipping if someone would ship it back toyou. Hope this helps The KGB

I have an ETrex Legend. What I am trying to do is as follows: When I go on a cache hunt, I would like to be able to come home, hook the legend up to my PC and superimpose the saved Track Log over a map of the area, preferable satellite or Topo map. Does anyone know of away to do this. I downloaded one program that enabled me to download the track but I couldn't figure out where to get the map for it. Does this make any sense to anyone and has anyone done it. My purpose is to continue adding to the same map so that eventually I will have a large map with tracks going all over the place showing the places that I have been. Any help would be greatly appreciated, and I am now gonna POP this mutha The KGB

I know you're here because of all of the caches. I know there is no way to search for members by location so I figured I would ss who was here. I have just started here myself and didn't know if there was any organization. I see one in Ga that is fairly active and see that some are popping up in Fl. The KGB

The best way to get them off is to pour about a 1/2 gallon og gasoline on each shoe and then light them on fire and let them burn out. hehe The KGB

I don't get it, why would you need your house and the bars around it to be in the GPS, don't you already know where they are? I must be missing something, I guess the watch thing would be good for an alcoholic tourist, other than that I don't see the purpose,now I am engaged and if they came up with a watch that showed where all the restrooms were, I would be the first on the list to buy that for her because we can't go anywhere without having to hunt one of those down.

Why don't you just put your e-mail address on teh cache and say that if anyone ahs any questions or concerns about this container, please e-mail me ASAP, it's really not all that difficult. You could even use a hotmail account for just that purpose. If you are concerned about "lines of communication" make it easy and give them a way of contacting you. Did something happen to you on a cache because you sound very frantic. Just curious The KGB
