  1. I would appreciate some assistance logging the WHERE'S IN A NAME CACHE. http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_details.aspx?ID=12627&log=y&decrypt=y I need someone to take a photograph with their GPS at 43 46.436. These coordinates can be either N,S,E, or W. We will both receive credit as a find. I live near either 27 21.31 or 80 24.71 if this helps anyone else. Thanks TRIOGEO

  3. It all depends on the terrain, distance, weather, etc. I do keep the following pack (Bug Out Bag) in the car with us while caching or on trips... For the TRIOGEO family (wife, 3 yr old, and me) we take: Blackhawk Industries Cyclone (100 oz H2O x 2)2400ci of storage (with side packs) Magellan meridian Gold BUG SPRAY (Florida = Killer Mosquitos) Case for Gps (on shoulder strap) Cell phone Whistle (on shoulder strap) First aid kit Leatherman tool (on shoulder strap) Spare socks (for everyone) spare Shorts (for everyone) Spare t shirt (for everyone) Diapers Wipes Toilet paper Lighter Firestarter Signal mirror Compass Ziplock bags Pens Cahce pages Notebook Emergency blanket (large size - for shelter also) Flashlight (X2 - Surefire 8ax and 2D flood) Chemlight sticks (keeps child amused at dusk) Cache items (for trade) Zip ties 50' of climbing rope 100'of paracord Carabiners Large plastic trash bags (for trash and panchos) Digital Camera Small binoculars Frs radios Spare batteries MRE's (emergency food) Snacks & light food (we have lunch/dinner while out) Glock entrenching tool (camp shovel) Glock model 27 .40 S&W (in M16 magazine pouch) I also bring a Hydration unit only pack, with a small buttpack, to take some of the items from above list, for easy, short distance caches. Seems like much, but packs all together in a nice little package that we can take anywhere. Living in South Florida, we can see sudden and violent weather changes, and having my family with me on all of our caches, I like being prepared! Besides, I have the light pack, the wife carries the child when needed! LOL You can see the Cyclone at: http://www.blackhawkindustries.com/product_catalog.asp?option=search&searchterms=cyclone
  4. I use a BLACKHAWK INDUSTRIES CYCLONE backpack and hydration unit. Blackhawk gear is heavy duty gear that is built to perform and last. The Cyclone holds two 100oz bladders with routing for both hoses, and has them housed away from your gear in a separate pouch. Here is a list of what I carry while caching with my family: For the TRIOGEO family (wife, 3 yr old, and me) we take: Blackhawk Industries Cyclone (100 oz H2O x 2)2400ci of storage (with side packs) Magellan meridian Gold Case for Gps (on shoulder strap) Cell phone Whistle (on shoulder strap) First aid kit Leatherman tool (on shoulder strap) Spare socks (for everyone) spare Shorts (for everyone) Spare t shirt (for everyone) Diapers Wipes Toilet paper Lighter Firestarter Signal mirror Compass Ziplock bags Pens Cahce pages Notebook Emergency blanket (large size - for shelter also) Flashlight (X2 - Surefire 8ax and 2D flood) Chemlight sticks (keeps child amused at dusk) Cache items (for trade) Zip ties 50' of climbing rope 100'of paracord Carabiners Large plastic trash bags (for trash and panchos) Digital Camera Small binoculars Frs radios Spare batteries MRE's (emergency food) Snacks & light food (we have lunch/dinner while out) Glock entrenching tool (camp shovel) Glock model 27 .40 S&W (in M16 magazine pouch) Seems like much, but packs all together in a nice little package that we can take anywhere.

  5. My family and I try to do this once a month. We will usually pick an area that has different types of caches, then find an area within this zone that we can camp at. Sometimes we find a great camping spot, then plan caches around it. We try to at least have a camping area planned before we set out, (necessary with a three year old!), unless we have a sitter, then we will wing it! We usually go for 4-6 days or so, and we have found that if we spend some time searching on the internet, and talk to cachers in the area that we are looking to go to, we can find some of the best camping / caching sites to be offered. Hope this helps some. TRIOGEO
  6. Always have them with me, and use them quite a bit. I go caching with the wife and three year old, when the trail gets rough, or is to difficult, I go ahead while they stay behind. Lets us keep in touch the whole time. Also work great at any event, theme parks, fairs, etc.
  7. That is why I always carry my Badge with me when I go GEOCACHING. We see alot of this in the nature parks around the area. Nothing worse then walking in the woods with my wife and three year old daughter, to find two adult men (55+ most of the time) pleasuring each other. GET A ROOM!!!!!!!
  8. I have ordered from them in the past, and am very satisfied with their service. They have the suction cup mount for $34 and the P/C and Power cable combo for $24. They will ship it right away, I mean RIGHT AWAY! I ordered both from them for my GOLD, and received them in two days. Hope this helps http://gpsdiscount.com/ TRIOGEO
  9. I have been using the suction cup mount everyday since October. I really like this mount, and have had no problems with it. It is fully adjustable. (my wife likes to turn it to her side of the car to watch it update) The swivel type mount screws into the mounting surface, such as a dashboard or boat console. Hope this helps. TRIOGEO
