  1. Not stupid, but I would get more experience before placing your first cache. Placing is a lot harder then it looks.

    Logging

    This is a browser issue. the symptom you describe happens in MS internet explorer, but not in firefox.
  3. This will be one feature of cachemate that you will not be able to use.
  4. As Indiana Jones once said, "Snakes, I hate Snakes!". I would run and move to the next cache.
  5. 99% of the time, my GPSr gets me there. The other 1% is a 1/1 rated cache in the middle of a parking lot that I can see in google maps.
  6. ...and I just do a 'happy dance' when I reach a milestone.
  7. I have used Geocaching to supplement the drudgery of the five mile hike. You cannot replace the GPS for map and compass on advancement requirements. I have my Scouts compute bearing and distance to get us close to the cache, then have used the GPS to get us to the final. I also have started a Venturing Crew with a geocaching specialty.
  8. mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm....SPAM!!
  9. With the 60csx running at $230 at Amazon and a Colorado 300 running at $500, I do not yet see a compelling reason to buy the Colorado. Garmin has addressed may of the 'bugs' , but I think still has a way to go. Im adverse to buying version 1.0 of anything as I do not wish to be the consumer level beta tester. I have a 60cx and it does everything I want it to go for geocaching.
  10. IF what you have is working well.... why buy?
  11. With the introduction of the Colorado, other Garmin GPSr have been dropping. I have a GPSmap 60cx. I paid $350 at Amazon 18 months ago. The same GPSr is now $203!! I'm very happy with my GPSr. The Colorado looks 'sexy', but is not worth the money for me to upgrade.
  12. I wouuld recommend the book 'OPEN YOUR HEART WITH GEOCACHING' as to why the cache was placed where it was.
  13. On a open database selct list/edit filters. Then select the Info tab. That is where you can select cache type and container size and difficulty.
  14. Sharing the FTF makes for good karma with your friends
  15. As long as you are not directly promoting the business, it is OK Some examples in Colorado -4 series (7-11) See Spot series (Target) On every corner series and Project Wal series (Walgreens) Denver Bookworm series (Public Libraries in Denver) Star series (Starbucks) Homer series (Home Depot)
  16. Looks like we are now getting closer to making the Colorado worth purchasing.
  17. They are not in the same place. The cache description should lead you there.
  18. If the gravestone has historical significance, then I'm OK else I pass.
  19. Deal or No Deal with 26 ammo cans The Amazing Race - with all tasks being geocache finds 24- using geocaches for sleeper cell communications as the story line. The Sarah Connor Chronicles - Geocaches are planted that help the resistance fighters in the future. Heroes - with someone who has a GPSr ability as their power. Two and a half men - Charlie uses geocaching to get girls. Friends - Phoebe places a geocache on the apartment balcony with disasterous results. Knight Rider - KITT helps Michael get over 100,000 finds using the built-in GPS technology. Extreme Makover home edition - Ty and the gang build a new house for a geocacher who is forever hunting geocaches and his house is falling apart. TWIG - This week in Geocaching - hosted by Jeremy of Groundspeak LPCs gone wild - a show about LPC hides Travel America with arthurat - I travel the country to locations that are geocache friendly. Like Rachel Ray's tasty travels, but with geocaching as the focus. All show ideas are the property of arthurat!
