Our regular cache machine is an 02 Chevy Malibu When we have to be FTF it is the 68 Chevelle SS - gets us there faster then everyone else..

Wow I did not thing we were old but we are 32 and 30 and this female went out and purchased the GPS for geocaching. I really enjoy getting out there and whenever we have a free moment we cache. We also take our 9 and 6 year old with us quite often. I will not cache alone. That is just my feeling. I have done some urban caches alone and they dont bother me but I will not step into the green belt on my own or do a terrain where I could fall (recently had some major sugery and inclines still intimidate me...We started caching to help me build the strenght back into my legs (too many months in a wheel chair) and to get the Family outside) But we all love the sport.

We have a Lowrance H2O that we love - just upgraded from the Lowrance Ifinder (it had an accident)..

I came across a cache (im using this co-ordinate as only an example), it had extra digits. What do they mean ? N 44° 10.1545 W 077° 35.9243 For instance the 5 and the 3 were extra. I ignored them and went only by the 3 digits after the decimal, but where is there a fourth number? What does it mean and have you seen this before? Thanks

Actually, on a side note I use a Lawrence, and my caching buddies use Garmin, I have noticed every single time, I had a better accuracy, I have never had my unit off by 4 meters on any cache so far (I have done about 60 of them). food for thought.

Anyone ever thought about carrying a hand-held metal-detector in their backpack? hmmm Asuming it has traces of metal in it though.

Thanks guys for the info Zartimus yes we are in orleans - or almost cumberland depending on who your talking too dadgum area is getting large - and I think my hubbys one goal is to find one of your Caches Zartimus - he has been admiring your work for a while now - and I finally broke downa nd bought him an Early Bday present when i found a nice GPS unit on sale.

Hi - we are fairly new to GeoCaching and we would like to know where we can find more information on these events. Any info would be great. Also if anyone knows of any really good kid friendly caches that you can point us towards it would be great - we are in orleans but love to travel around the city. Cheers!
