    looking for

    Hello all. Just a quick question if I may. Me and the wife are thinking of a road trip Halloween weekend. Maybe to the states (Northern New York) or (Northern Michigan). I am looking for a really GOOD cache that will be worth the time spent traveling. Any Ideas?

  3. I will be in Niagara (Canadian side) attending the Comic-Con there, and would not like to miss the flash mob for WWFM. is there someone one in that region that can put one on so we can attend????
  4. With cloud cover and it getting darker a tornado watch in affect we set out for our 100th cache driving up to a grand river cache we followed the bien trail into the woods and it with clouds overhead and a tornado watch in affect we headed out for our 100th cache iwe got to grand river on the bien trail when it started to spit rain a little got to gz and found it right away walking out started to rain harder got to car jumped in and BOOM lightning strikes about 200m across the river now visability is almost zero due to rain only the lightning lighting up the skys and my headlights as we traveled home a little deft and 100th cache found a good day to remember
  5. add to that Tweezers Paper clip to reroll the nano logs walking stick to beat the bushes for snakes oor animals more batteries a phone to call for help if needed. a car antenna with a magnet on end of it. a rain pancho or umbrella screwdriver flat and star. for just incase never know when you need one a pocket knife A LARGE TRUNK TO KEEP ALL THIS STUFF IN while your hunting in the bush
  6. Me and the wife use smart phones she has an Android I have a iphone and a garmin gpsr. Now the andriod was usally off more the 17meters compared to iphone while handheld gpsr was usally right on. BUT... When deploying a cache you should be averageig the cords anyways so if using the andriod there is an alt app that does it just fine taking about 100 reading will get you a good location then come back on another day and test it again this will narrow down the offset. with the Iphone you have to pay for an appp that will do the averaging ..So i didnt get one.. The gpsr has it built in and can average the cords easily... So which would i choose? Each has its good points and draw backs i like to use them in combination with each other.. Unplanned caching is great with smartphones just look it up and go.. you have to plan it with the gpsr's...so smartphones would be my choice....andriod for a few more free apps then the iphone but iphone if you buy the geocaching.com app... That be my 2cents
  7. a munzee in german means COIN. simular to geocoin
  8. The garmin site needs the gps to be plugged in it reads the internal information and stores it at their end. If as you said you didnt have time to register it before it was stolen. i really dont think there is anyting you can do. when mine was stolen i did have the serieal number and the police still havent found it so i kissed that baby goodbye.
  9. Ty very much for the quick reply
  10. Hello all i have paid to be a member. how do i recieve email for when a new cache has been placed within my area?
  11. some gps's also come with a choice of CAR or pedestrian (sp) so it will use the road map for car but will use different maps for walking. check your gps for those choices.
