  1. I was proposing to talk to an official first, and explain the situation, that someone from outside the country had placed the cache, and as responsible people involved in the sport in the UK we didn't think it was a good place to leave caches in light of world tension etc etc, and that I was going to go and remove it. Failing that, we could get Robin Lovelock to talk to his contact at the BBC and film the whole thing for the new series of Airport. Jeremy from Aeroflot finds a geocache.

    Lord of the Rings

    Wow, talk about asking forbidden questions, no-one will actually divulge the real locations. However I am on to a positive lead re the set near Matamata, although it appears it's actually closer to Hinuera. Wish me luck it sounds like I'm going to need it. Here's hoping. Now, who's the expert who's going to help create a themed cache for placement there if I can get permission?

  5. ay in the same place and socialise a bit. I was dissapointed that the York gathering finished as quick as it did. By the time I'd finished the gargantuan lunch, everyone was starting to drift off. Never got to talk to many people at all, which was a shame. Why don't you do the Dalby thing for May and I'll try to put something together for Allendale later in the summer. Alex.
  6. I have some ideas but I'll email you. don't want to give too much away here. I'd like a weekend event where we can all stay in the same place and socialise a bit.

  7. Talk about a "bright" idea. Bright is what your flashlight'll have to be to do this! Firefishe again, outta Michigan with, hopefully, yet another weird one...but perhaps not so much as the Haunted Geocaching thread. Geocaching at night... For those of you who "love to do it in the dark," I offer this thread for all of you (us?). We'll see. . . Haunted Geocaching and Nighttime Geocaching...don't these two go together somehow? )Cross-threading okay here as far as I'm concerned, please make sure it's just at night if on this thread. The other one is fine for any time of day or night, but just has the subject restricted to the Haunted stuff... --thanks-- Warm regards, Firefishe

    Female Geocachers?

    I first learned about geocaching from my editor ... once I did the story, I was sure that it was just about the perfect sport for my copy editor buddy at the newspaper. I borrowed a GPS and we hunted and found a cache just north of town (a 1/1 that still took two trips ) Next payday he was at the sporting goods store shopping for an Etrex. As my reward for finding him a new hobby, I get unlimited use of the GPS for a whole year! (Hey, can I log that as a find?) He hunts more than I do -- because he travels more and take the GPS with him -- I hide more and spend more time on the forums and such. My hubby is OK with caching, but isn't bitten by the bug. My two boys are OK with it, too, but aren't nearly as interested as Mom, who mass produces sig items and frets about planning a event cache this spring. So caching makes an outdoorsy thing to do when I want some time for me. I usually do hunt with my caching buddy; it's often a longish drive and it's good to have someone to talk to. I've also done a few with a friend or two along to introduce them to the sport. Light brown/dark blonde, occasionally lightened from the box ...
  10. JF, Sorry to hear about your problems. I can only guess you are an exception as well, as Lexus is usually at the top of any customer service ratings I see in car magazines. I am one of those that is getting the short end of the stick from Magellan. I ordered MapSend Topo on January 10 from Cyber-Marine, and I'm still waiting to get a working copy from Thales. It wouldn't be so bad if I didn't live right in the middle of the bad data. To defend Thales, though. The last time I called (long-distance) the tech (Christine) was very friendly. Only problem was she didn't seem to know much about the program and I had to be put on hold more than once while she went and talked to someone else. I guess I'd rather have friendly and uninformed than to talk to some know-it-all jerk. Jamie

    GPS on planes?

    quote:Originally posted by Gee Ode:That makes me wonder about the quality of the people doing the security checks. I have yet to have a security check take notice of my GPSR in my carry-on, even after 9/11. I sat next to a guy last week who got the window seat and pulled out his GPS and stuck it to the window with a car mount. The flight attendant (United) didn't say a word. We must've annoyed the people around us with our GPS geek talk. A few years ago, I ended up at my destination and realized that I had 5 .30-30 rifle cartridges in my carry-on. I had had been hunting the weekend before and didn't check my carry-on very well. Needless to say, the shells didn't make the return trip. I thought about telling the security people at my origin (Austin's old Mueller airport) but I realized that I unwittingly commited a felony and I didn't care to spend hours in a little room with a 20w lightbulb dangling over my head. After that experience, I find myself approaching the security guys with this nagging little voice in the back of my mind "do I have rifle shells in my carry-on?". -E ------------------ N35°32.981 W98°34.631

  13. The yanks still think we all talk strine and that kangaroos hop down Pitt st. They probably hop down embis main road and they come into my back yard.At least with this hobby and the photos we all post it gives us all an insight to the wide world. We have a great country but a dreadful lack of great maps for the general public at reasonable prices.
  14. Hey don't get me wrong either. I am all for allowing Geocaching in Parks. Although my 2 cents is not the final say, I am only the Park Manager not the Director. I have spoke to other Mangers about this sport and most of them see that it has a place if properly monitored. I have even hid a cache in one of the parks I manage. Anyway I plan to talk to our director about Geocaching in our state of Florida soon. BrownMule
  15. Actually, it sounds like you have already made up your mind and are simply having buyer's remorse. On the one hand, you compare memory prices, which indicates you are considering Garmin units outside the eTrex line, on the other hand, you talk about getting a better ant. with Meridian, which seems to ignore that some Garmin lines offer QH ant., along with a connector for an external ant. (a feature that the Meridian line lacks). There are plenty of happy Meridian owners, and I see little reason why you wouldn't be happy with a basic, marine, or gold. If you are looking for reassurances on a Platinum, that is another story. Most people have little legitimate use for a barometric altimeter. And, a built in compass with 5-10 degree accuracy is a convenience, but it lacks the accuracy (and robustness) for serious outdoor navigation. So, if money really is a concern why spend money on these features? Especially when it means being an early adopter of a product that has been plagued with manufacturing problems and delays. Likewise, if you are doing some heavy duty mountaineering, do you really want to put your trust in a brand new, repeatedly delayed device? The logical choice would be to buy a Gold, which would give you the Meridian you obviously prefer, fight off the evil Garmin empire, and give you a unit that is well field tested. On the other hand, if your heart is set on a Plantinum - go for it. A hundred bucks isn't chicken feed, but if having all the bells and whistles increases your enjoyment of the unit, then that is worth something too. -jjf [This message has been edited by jfitzpat (edited 13 February 2002).]

    Geo-Terror

    Is treemoss2 proposing that a vigilante squad watch a cache. Well I always carry a gun when out and about,and if I'm aproached by several people as to why I'm there and what I'm doing, I'll do whatever is necessary to take care of my hide. The smart thing is to check with the rangers if its a nature area it probably is not allowed in that area. Go talk to the Rangers all they can say is NO! To Geo Quest: "If you are the devious kind you could buy one of those "game trail" cameras and set it up to watch the cache location. Get a picture of the bung hole and post it on this forum." I'll gladly moon your camera and show you what some cachers really are!! ------------------ JoseCanUSea [This message has been edited by JAMCC47 (edited 13 February 2002).] [This message has been edited by JAMCC47 (edited 13 February 2002).]

    Geocaching and 2-Way Radio

    According to the Garmin info, they give a visual display of other users on the same channel. Great for a team of cachers trying to zero in on a cache. Can u input waypoints to them or do they just locate other radios? Also, Now I can see even more people running around malls going "Where r u, I'm by Macy's, I see you on my screen". I work in a mall & it's amazing how many people need to constantly talk to each other on cell phones & personal 2 way radios while in the same mall! Talk aout codependance!

  23. You know, some people just don't know that stuff. Google is one of my best friends, but sometimes I forget to talk to it. Thanks for the hint. I'm done agonizing now.

  25. ...you've been telling friends about this fascinating pastime and they alternatively nod knowingly and shake their heads, talk about you, offer you another drink/counselling and generally think you are off your rocker.
