I was thinking about it but the rain makes the long drive not worth doing this weekend.
Maybe it wont be as bad this weekend....
-
Anyone planning a trip to the Ladder Canyon "LunchMeet" (Event Cache)? Hopefully it will not be another rain-out. Who wants to go to a desert sand wash when it is raining?!!

While on a cache hunt to "IT's 'D' SPOT" in Encinitas, I found this sign:
I thought it was interesting and educational about our local plant life. Who has the job of counting endangered plants in San Diego County?
The sign is correct! Center for Plant Conservation

(Seriously, though, I've done it. It's not that bad, but it's a good idea to have Google Earth printouts with you...)
It may also be helpful to bring forum printouts as well... lets see, can we dl them into cachemate?!!! I guess I could just add a note to the cache description myself with a quote of a quote!, then generate a new PQ. Or, the fun way, just follow the arrow! Nice forum, I feel like I have a new computer or something!

Congrats to TrailGators for his 100th Puzzle cache! WooHoo! Good job. Made # 100 on the epic Mississippi River Cache. Way to Go!
-
Hmm, I notice that you left out "Miramar #1."
Probably wont get that far west. I had the larger photo first, but I cropped out the area I could not reach. That cache is calling me every pass on the 52 also!
-
Anybody caching on Superbowl Sunday? I may cache early.
I was considering a MTB ride on the North side of 52 @ MTRP. Gotta burn off those Super Bowl nachos and chili early!
-
... We aren't sure if our Toyota Matrix will make it to the trailhead.
I have not done the caches your refer to, but at least you would not be alone ... plenty of cache to keep you company!
One thing I know (not by personal experience) FOR SURE - It is possible to do 100 caches in a day out there!

San Diego County Geocacher Coins on sale on Ebay.
In case you missed it.
Still many left.
Dutch Auction.
How about this one - Moun10Bike Ver 2 Geocoin - RARE Trackable
Is that real? I guess there will never be one in a cache!
-
That is way cool also. Is there a limit to the number of waypoints one can add? (not that I would want to, but it would be handy for some caches I know of (Wild animal park) Figures RocketMan is 10 steps ahead! Thanks RocketMan. Too bad it is 815 miles away!
-
Now I just need to edit mine to add them...
Could you do it on your puzzle caches as well?!!
-
Did anyone notice or mention the new GC option for additional waypoints on a cache listing? I just edited parking cordinates for Uno Dos Tres (Uno)!
Very cool and useful feature recently added.

Like myself, I'm sure there are many of us that never had the privilege of knowing Bikedog other than through his cache logs, photos and finding his caches. So I'd like to say on behalf of all of us that our thoughts and prayers are with Bikedog, his family and his friends today....
Today, at the Bikedog memorial wake, there were many cachers there, some that have never even seen Jerry before. We sure have a great group of people here. More BikeDog related news soon to come. And please, everybody be careful out there! Also, take lots of photos and videos along the way!

We should be grateful for our weather...read the 1/17 post for this cache in Wisconsin! Pretty funny!
"currently have the logbook but plan on returning it within the month. Wanted to read all the entry's but didn't want to stand in the cold. " ... a good example of what not to do .. single digit finder.
-
I expect by then that the the Splashes will have found 12454 caches, Chuy will have 758 FTFs, and Flagman will have solved 921 puzzles!
And RocketMan will have had enough of Colorado and be back home in Carlsbad!
-
Delayed again ... How many does that make now? Hopefully this will be the last!

Who invented the lamp-skirt cache hide anyway.
Parsa
My little kids lift up lamp skirts at almost every parking lot we go to! What is the world coming to!

Well, Happy Cache-iversary to Me!
I can't believe it's been a whole year since my brother said, "Have you ever heard of geocaching?" I replied in the negative, he told me what it was, pulled out a cache page and sat photo, and we found Spooky Hill.
My life hasn't been the same since. I've met wonderful people, corresponded with more of the same, been to places I never knew existed, learned how frustrating puzzles can be, learned how much fun frustrating others can be, improved my health, got on the local news, and finally found a reason to put the QDmobile in 4WD mode.
I can't wait to see what the next year has in store. Thanks, everybody!
I remember my first year. I did 300 caches and was so proud of that! Congrats on the 460 in the first year. You will probably double that this year now that you know what you are doing!

Bikedog down.
I am extremely sad to report that Bikedog was critically injured in a motorcycle accident today and will not live through the night. For all of you who had the opportunity to know him, then your life is better for it. I personally had the chance to share many a weekend adventure with him and I will always remember him for the fun we had and the challenges we overcame.
I will repost once the details of a memorial service are assembled.
Howling Wolf
Please keep us posted with any news. Our thoughts and prayers are with Jerry, his friends and family.

Does anybody like a FTF? I have a new cache that was released over 48 hours and still not found yet! Is Oceanside too far North? Maybe if I put it underground in a drain it would be found faster???
-
Check out a new cache in the North County:
Eternal Hills Cemetery to Calaveras Lake Multi
It is quite a long and challenging trek. (another example of a long (11 WP) multi that could have actual caches instead of WP's along the way). FNX even used existing caches from other people for a couple of the WP's!!! You can find about 5 caches along the way! Highly recommended especially if you have never done Calaveras Lake before!
(My $.02 for a new page)

I found this Blue Heron today up in Oceanside at close to home GCRPDQ cache.
I tried to get closer, but he wanted to fly!:

Who says you have to go fast to have fun! ... if I could just get my Mom to take off these training wheels!

I just noticed that my hiking boots are starting to fall apart again. So do any of you guys have any recommendations hiking boots for moderate trails and a place to get a good deal on them?
This is what Santa Claus got me:
Apparently, he has some helpers at REI !!!
San Diego Cache Events
in West and Southwest

Yes, I plan on the trip including some Palms to Pines caches. A bad weather day is better with a bunch of caches along the way! Either way, the weather will not be as bad as last weekend. I plan to leave early in the AM and get to the event around Noon. I am going solo, but always "room for one more"!
