  1. Do you suppose he has some secret technology such as a teleportation device? :tired:

     

    Or maybe he's an alien and has access to a super fast UFO. :tired:

     

    Anyway, I got knocked off my feet for a short time. I'll be back with a vengence.

    Time for some strategic geocaching.

     

    Oh, and congrats Puter and look out MikeDx.

  2. Here are a few from West Virginia.

     

    Kanawha

    Pocatalico

    Pocahontas

    Logan

    Shenandoah

    Buchannon

     

    There are many more, but I'm in a hurry right now.

  3. MikeDX,

     

    Congrats! Great job finding all these caches - seeing that you have just about completed the state, what will you do once you find them all?

     

    Best --

     

    Puter

    You mean you don't know?

     

    He's going to Disney World. :P

  4. I'll have to read TMP's log again. I know that's the way I'd want to go. Did he need any special equipment with that route?

     

    I like MikeDX's idea of getting all the WV caches that were around when I started... Let's see... there were nine when I started. I still need to find two of those (the two oldest.) Oh, did he mean when WVDan started? Oh, that's different then.

     

    WVDan--think that helicopter could carry us both there?

    TMP didn't have to have any special equipment.

     

    Also, if they can get a hellicopter to carry a tank, I'm sure it will hold the both of us. We may tick off some climbers with the down draft from the rotors though. We'd have to grab, sign, and evacuate quickly.

     

    Know anyone with a hellicopter?

  5. While caching on the Memorial Day weekend, I stayed at the Holiday Inn in Martinsburg. This was the perfect place to stay. You're almost in the center of 15 to 20 geocaches. The coordinates for the hotel are N39°27.671' W077°59.313'

     

    They have a great restaurant in the hotel. If you eat here, request Terry to be your waiter. You won't be disappointed. Mom said that he was what she called a real "Gentleman."

     

    Also, for those with a geo-Pup or favorite pet that likes to go with you, the Hotel is a pet friendly hotel. Their policy is just don't leave them unattended in your room. Seen several large dogs, one may have been a horse :blink:.

  6. WVDan, MikeDX,

     

    Maybe we should all tackle the Summit together - that way, we each have someone to talk to on the trip down when we fall !! :lol::lol::lol:

     

    Puter

    Be it alone or with two other friends, I still don't like the idea of death in that manor. However, I do refuse to do South Peak Summit alone. Even if I have to pay out the $130 plus to get a guide to go with me and make sure I'm on the right path. Plus, if I go, I'm taking TMP's route. My knees went week on the viewing platform at Seneca rocks, there's no Way I'm going to hang from a rope on the side of that rock.

  7. ... WVDan has the goal of finding the most WV caches (or is that ALL WV caches?)...

     

    Both are my goal Man in the Wild.

    First goal is to get most West Virginia Finds.

    Next goal is to find all West Virginia caches.

     

    I may save South Peak summit till last, since that may be the one that kills me.

     

    Supose they'd let me charter a hellicopter to put me down up there? :back:

  8. Sounds great.

     

    It would be a lot of work, but I'd like to see a page that updates say once a day or even twice a week, that keeps rank of most West Virginia Finds. MikeDx and I are keeping track of ours and a few others, but we'd go even more nuts than we already are if we tried to keep track of them all.

     

    A gallery for Geocaching events would be neat too. Were you can add pics from the picnics and cache in trash out events.

     

    A news page would be interesting. For example if a geocacher is in the news, or gets married, has a baby, or even a memorial page for those who die or drown trying to cross the river.

  9. Personally, I wouldn't waste my money on a Gameboy. I had two as a teenager, and both only lasted about 4 months and the screens went bad. I took it for service, but it cost more to put a new screen in than it did to just buy a new game boy.

    My boy is 3 now and will be 4 in August, but when he turns 7 or 8, I'm going to get him the latest gecko or what ever is available along those lines.

    Even at 3, he loves caching.

  10. Confusing, but Wolf452 is correct. I deal with this all the time when I have to draw property plots. Just be happy you don't have to convert the distance from rails, poles, chains or rods. It's not hard to do, but time consuming.
