I'd use Google Earth and then download the Geocaching klm file. View the area in Germany with Google Earth and see what caches pop up. Then visit a cache page and click show nearby caches. That is about the only way I can think of right now. I gotta save my brain for work...

Well my last hide was a LPC, Only because the only other spot available was a nice rocky hillside. And I just wanted to say I have one of these..

It was about a week ago.. And I sent you a pm..

You can get by without paying for any software. Just use the TopoZone link on the cache page. You can zoom out or in in any direction. And you can print them out too. http://www.topozone.com

If you signed the log then log it as a find.

Thanks for the info Steve. I haven't checked my emails in a day or so.. Guess I should have before posting.

I just bought 5 nano containers and want to find log sheets that will fit. Where do I get them or how can I create them? Anyone have an electronic copy they can send my way?

That would explain why another cacher in my area was in both Reno and North Carolina in the same day.

Ok here is sometthing very interesting. I just got an email saying that one of my caches has been found. So I go and check the caches page just to check and see what TB was logged in or out. Now once I get to the cache page the find stated in the email is not showing on the page. I also checked the finders user stas and it doesnt show him/her as finding the cache. Could this just be a slow server issue or maybe something else? You are receiving this email because you are the owner of this listing. Location: Nevada, United States scottru found Triple Nickel Cache (Traditional Cache) at 3/7/2007 Log Date: 3/7/2007 fun cache (though I don't get the hint). It is reachable in a 2WD car. Thanks!

All you need to do for posting images is, Find an online hosting site such as Photobucket.com. Then upload your image there. And have it generate the "HTML"code and paste the code here. Thats what I just did. The image shown here is being stored on one of my Photobucket sites. The direct link to it is here. http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y133/8100...ns/clapping.gif Hope this helps.. Chris - KA7CJH

Go to www.youtube.com and type "Geocaching" in the search field. And you will end up with a list of about 100-200 homemade caching videos that others have uploaded to the net. Some are very well done. Or do a google search for "Icenrye" This guy does a Cache style Blog. Very good set of videos.

Thanks Keystone, That is was what i was looking for. I plan on adding a few new caches to my home town in May and just wanted to see if there was a cache there before. I will print these instructions out once I get home. THX, Chris - KA7CJH

Seems like a while back when we used the old "Map It" map we were able to search for archived caches. Now I can't do that sort of search anymore. Is there any way to do this now?

My first cache is still active also. GCN55J And my first find was archived so I placed a new cache in the same general area. I felt I had to give a little love back to the other cachers in the area. GC112F4

Email sent.

I think it would be an OK cache. Just as long as you don't place it in the tools section of Sears.. But you have to think that maybe a Geo-Muggle might wonder off with it.

I had a similar problem happen to my Magellan Explorist 200. I spent about 2 hours entering over 300 waypoints into the thing. Then once I was out caching, I had to change batteries. Turned the unit off and dropped in a set of fresh batteries. Then powered the thing back on, and noticed it displayed " Initionalizing Unit" .. Talk about a mad cacher.. Good thing I had a fresh Garmin Legend loaded up and ready to go. Chris - KA7CJH

I was with a fellow cacher not to long ago. And he decided to hide a cache at a "Confluence". Well it took both of us fighting our way through the brambles and poison oak just to get close. But after a long hard battle we one-out. Yes I logged the cache but only after another cacher found it and logged a FTF. So if you help hide a cache, by all means you should be able to log it. Just don't claim to be FTF. You still get the same smiley face. Chris

I think this would be a great idea. There are shows about everything on tv these days. Why not a Geocaching Show? You can add me to the list of supporters. Chris

Unless your in a paved parking lot, You could always look for a well established trail. My last trip to Sacremento that was the method we used to find alot of caches. And another thing. When your GPS'r says your within 5-10 feet,, Put the GPS'r away and start looking. Some micros are also velcro'd to larger objects. Chris - KA7CJH

You can always add a comment to the waypoints before you upload them to your gps'r. Then when you check the waypoint out in the field you can see if it's a multi/regular/micro. If I go caching I use my pocket pc and it usually has 500 waypoints loaded into it. But currently im using MobilPocket to read the file. Maybe next payday I will get cachemate. But then I will have to learn how to use it.

I think I will just start buying stock at Kimberly Clark.

Thanks alot Jeremy..That is it. I could have sworn it was in the UK though.. But yes thats the cache page. Thanks. I knew I wasn't loosing my mind. Chris - KA7CJH
