  1. Do you think UTM is more accurate than lat/Long?
  2. Here is another example that I ran across. We need to have some standards of what we consider a find. Otherwise I could sit here and log finds and never even go out the door.
  3. Just keep trying and always remember, there is someone out there to help. 2 heads are better than one.
  4. Explorist 200. Want 210. No money though and I am not in a big rush to get it. I need a camera lens more.
  5. Is the film still good? They sure did a number on that one.
  6. The most common type of log is a rolled up piece of paper along with info identifying it as a cache. Some times it is lined with spaces for date and name.
  7. "If you've got a Garmin; Find, City, Nearest" That should work with Magellans also as long as it has a background map. The procedure should be different, though.
  8. Do a search for GSAK. It is a utility for downloading Waypoints from Geocaching.com
  9. I recommend GPS for dummies. I'm not able to help you with the gps problem but I have heard good things about that model and want one myself.
  10. I did what Clan Riffster did on my Meadow ridge Night cache although I did not staple mine. Be aware that they tend to fall off after a while.
  11. After looking at the park over the weekend, I have concluded that a Cito event is not required, because the city has been cleaning up the park. BTW, Team misguided, I love your signature!
  12. So, I guess you could say I owe it all to Prying Pandora . BTW, My dad is W7SY. I think I have transfered the infection to my best friend and his older brother. They don't have a gps yet so the only way they can go is with me.
  13. I came across Prying Pandora's Jenkins Creek cache while I was in Jenkins Creek park, which is right behind my home. I showed my best friend and my dad and my best friend and I looked at the site. I forgot about it for a while until my dad brought home from the library a copy of Geocaching for dummies because he had just gotten a new gps for work and wanted to learn more about it. Ironically I am the one who is hooked. I used his until I finally got my own.
  14. Please see my post under the CITO forums. I am looking for someone to ORGANIZE the event.
  15. Is there any Kent area Geocachers who would like to organize a CITO event to clean up Jenkins Creek Park? I would but it is kind of over my head. I would like to have it March 18th or 19th.
  16. Has anyone found Google Earth useful?
  17. Clearing the cache did it for me (no, not the geocache )
  18. Does any one else get a message that geocaching.com is down for maint when they try to go to the site?
