Set up 2, multi waypoint courses, with say 4 waypoints to the cache, one brand runs the course "A" first and the other runs course "B". Then switch. Keep track of the times and the "track log" of each brand at the end of the 2 different courses. Best times and the most direct route scores the points. Set up the multis just like real life with new coords.,say put in a 35mm film canister. Be sure the canisters a replaced as they were found. Do not over hide the multi waypoint cannisters. Follow my thinking?? (I pasted this from the organized forum) My hockey Mom beat up your soccer Mom. http://coloradogeocaching.com/

A GPS and a little practice with plenty of good tread on your walking shoes. There are lots of caches around towns and such. Lots of help in these forums. Then, once you are addicted, LOOK OUT!! You'll be caching in your sleep. Everyone started out as a "newbie" at one time or another. Check your area where you live and see if a fellow cacher will take you out on a hunt. I am sure the he/she will hand you the GPS and give a little guidance. Have fun!! My hockey Mom beat up your soccer Mom. http://coloradogeocaching.com/

I think for some reason they clicked the wrong button. Go and do a maintainance check on your cache to be sure that YOU are happy with it and log it as a note on your cache page. ie. http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_details.aspx?ID=30176. I had some people who were concerned about the cache I owned and posted an Archive note. I checked and posted my own note so anybody looking will see that.

Send the link for the cache page with the TB. Don't be bashful. Be sure you log in the TB properly after you grab it. What ever questions you have on doing this, ask your fellow cachers on the forums and you'll get help. You wont be left alone not knowing what to do next.

I think 7 days is a reasonable amount of time. If you think it will be longer, be considerate to the TB owner and mention that you have it and when aprox. you will release it. Have you checked on the bugs owners guidelines or "goals"? They may be specific and a considerate cacher will follow those. My hockey Mom beat up your soccer Mom. http://coloradogeocaching.com/

Spray can. Oil can. Name Tag.??? Kinda reminds me of that old "Duck/Flame" issue that was in the forums. My hockey Mom beat up your soccer Mom. http://coloradogeocaching.com/

buy a sandwich! Oh!! The GPS!! Turn it on outside and let it set to get as many satellite locks as possible. Find a cache that is close, plug-in coordinates, print out the cache page (printer friendly)and go for it. Look for a 1-1 cache as a newbie. Practice, Practice, Practice. Don't venture to deep. Buy plenty of AA batteries. Explore the "easyGPS" link to rapidly send coords. to your GPS. The Vista has mapping capabilities, you'll need to think of some mapping programs a little later on. Plenty to do as you go through this fun hobby/sport/game/adventure. Your first cache that you find, be sure to take out a McToy, and put in $100.00. You know, Trade up!!

Mary had a little sheep she took to bed to sleep. Then she found it was a ram, and Mary had a little lamb. Old lady Hubbard went to the cupboard to get her poor doggy a bone. She bent over, rover drove her, and gave her a bone of his own. My hockey Mom beat up your soccer Mom. http://coloradogeocaching.com/

Standing, no problem with the poison oak but electric fences..OUCH!! ----------------------------------------------- Found the cache. Somehow it got caught in the river and floated downstream. That is where all the $h!^ goes. Nothing in it but put in Michael Jacksons other glove that he lost a long time ago. My hockey Mom beat up your soccer Mom. http://coloradogeocaching.com/

How long has it been archived? If the original owner is/does not respond to inqueries, then the cache was probably not maintained. If there has been reasonable time from when it was archived, you (IMHO) should be free to go through the processes to make a cache of yours there. You can name it what you wish. Can you link the cache page here?. Let the viewing public see it. My hockey Mom beat up your soccer Mom. http://coloradogeocaching.com/

This is from Garmin wab page: How it Works WAAS consists of approximately 25 ground reference stations positioned across the United States that monitor GPS satellite data. Two master stations, located on either coast, collect data from the reference stations and create a GPS correction message. This correction accounts for GPS satellite orbit and clock drift plus signal delays caused by the atmosphere and ionosphere. The corrected differential message is then broadcast through one of two geostationary satellites, or satellites with a fixed position over the equator. The information is compatible with the basic GPS signal structure, which means any WAAS-enabled GPS receiver can read the signal. I believe (correct me if I am wrong) the two sats. for WAAS are 27 & 35. Look at your Satellite screen to determine if there is a lock on for those sats. I live and cache here in Colo. and had not paid that much attention to them. I do have the WAAS enabled on my Legend. My hockey Mom beat up your soccer Mom. http://coloradogeocaching.com/

Dogs' letters to God Dear God: Why do humans smell the flowers, but seldom, if ever, smell one another? Dear God: When we get to heaven, can we sit on your couch? Or is going to be the same old story? Dear God: Why are there cars named after the jaguar, the cougar, the mustang, the colt, the stingray, and the rabbit, but not ONE named for a dog? How often do you see a cougar riding around? We dogs love a nice ride! Would it be so hard to rename the 'Chrysler Eagle' the 'Chrysler Beagle'? Dear God: If a dog barks his head off in the forest and no human hears him, is he still a bad dog? Dear God: We dogs can understand human verbal instructions, hand signals, whistles, horns, clickers, beepers, scent ID's, electromagnetic energy fields, and Frisbee flight paths. What do humans understand? Dear God: More meatballs, less spaghetti, please. Dear God: When we get to the Pearly Gates, do we have to shake hands to get in? Dear God: Are there mailmen in Heaven? If there are, will I have to apologize? Dear God: Let me give you a list of just some of the things I must remember to be a good dog: 1. I will not eat the cats' food before they eat it or after they throw it up. 2. I will not roll on dead seagulls, fish, crabs, etc., just because I like the way they smell. 3. I will not munch on "leftovers" in the kitty litter box; although they are tasty, they are not food. 4. The diaper pail is not a cookie jar. 5. The sofa is not a face towel; neither are Mom and Dad's laps. 6. The garbage collector is not stealing our stuff. 7. My head does not belong in the refrigerator. 8. I will not bite the officer's hand when he reaches in for Mom's driver's license and registration. 9. I will not play tug-of-war with Dad's underwear when he's on the toilet. 10. Sticking my nose into someone's crotch is not an acceptable way of saying 'hello.' 11. I do not need to suddenly stand straight up when I'm lying under the coffee table. 12. I must shake the rainwater out of my fur before entering the house. 13. I will not throw up in the car. 14. I will not come in from outside and immediately drag my butt. 15. I will not sit in the middle of the living room and lick my crotch when company is over. 16. The cat is not a squeaky or shag toy; so when I play with him and he makes that noise, it's usually not a good thing. And, finally, my last question: Dear God: When I get to Heaven may I have my testicles back? My hockey Mom beat up your soccer Mom. http://coloradogeocaching.com/

The owner of a horse farm receives a call from a friend, who informs him of a midget with a speech impediment who's interested in buying a horse. The owner has him send the midget over. The midget arrives, and the owner asks if he wants a male or female horse. "A female horth," replies the midget. So the owner shows him one. "Nith looking horth, can I thee her mouf?" So the owners picks up the midget and shows him the horse's mouth. "Nith mouf, Can I thee her eyeth?" Promptly, the owner picks up the midget and shows him the horse's eyes. "Ok, what about the eerth?" At this point, the owner is becoming aggravated, but he picks up the midget one more time and shows him the ears. "OK, finally, can I see her twit?" With that, the owner picks up the midget and shoves his head up the horse's vagina, then pulls him out. Shaking his head, the midget laments, "Perhapth I thould rephrathe that. Can I thee her wun awownd?" My hockey Mom beat up your soccer Mom. http://coloradogeocaching.com/
