+duganrm Posted July 30, 2006 Share Posted July 30, 2006 (edited) I went at negative tide and still got wet, but only 'cause I mis-timed the waves going in and out. I may joing you guys just to pick on ya all . So are we still going to attempt this one tonight? Anybody else interested in grabbing a few caches before meeting up for BBG? I overslept and missed the outing earlier We didn't make it out of the canyon on time to get over there. I think I wore my legs out also. Did anyone end up trying for it? I am also willing to give out my cell number if someone ever wants to meet the group (if I am with them). I would have given DaMores a call this afternoon but didn't have his number....

No one showd up....No problems. We started the trek...Made it to the first bend. We were just about to cross when my boy was taken right off the ledge . He had his back to the waves.( Huge Mistake) Well not wanting to be the 6 oclock story. I told our group to turn around and head back. For future GTGs. My numbers is 619-760-3207.

We had a nice conversation with one of them while doing the Ruination cache that is East of the border. Seems to think the bldg. is some sort of historical site.

+Chuy! Posted August 2, 2006 Share Posted August 2, 2006 (edited) I did want to go up Fortuna 'cause Cegrube's "2006 MTRP Cache War WoM(L)D or The Largest Star" multi ends up there. I don't have a route set up, but I'm thinking of a clockwise approach starting near the multi and going up via the Adenaline cache (V5FW). That approach has stairs. But we don't have to go; we can get the ones in the "valley" and go up another day. Here is a visual of what I need. VDKV is the one covered up by W031. $ is a puzzle and the three funky icons are stadium icons signifying a multi. I don't think Zatyko will mind the puzzle on here as it is a very easy puzzle. I may pick up VKH1 tonight on the way home. I hope to work on the route tonight. Edited August 2, 2006 by Chuy! Quote Link to comment

+Chuy! Posted August 3, 2006 Share Posted August 3, 2006 My intended route is MTRP PKG, TD69, VN2T, VDGB, W033, VD98, W02T, VDKV, W031, VPEE, V5FW & VF6B. It's approx 6.5 miles, not counting the two multis that I hear may require another mile or so. VPEE to VDV7 is along the top of Fortuna. I have good intel the VD98 multi ends in this stretch. Additionally, I promised Miragee I'd accompany her to the terracache near the north end of Fortuna. An alternative route is MTRP PKG, TD69, VN2T, VDV7, VDGB, W033, VD98, W02T, VDKV, W031, VPEE, VDV7, & VF6B. This comes out to approx 7.5 miles. This avoids the north end and returns down via the Adrenaline cache at the south end of Fortuna. The best place to park for either route is at the end of Corte Playa Catalina, at N32 50.258 W117 04.617. 6P still sounds good to me. Quote Link to comment
+redstareg Posted August 3, 2006 Share Posted August 3, 2006 My intended route is MTRP PKG, TD69, VN2T, VDGB, W033, VD98, W02T, VDKV, W031, VPEE, V5FW & VF6B. It's approx 6.5 miles, not counting the two multis that I hear may require another mile or so. VPEE to VDV7 is along the top of Fortuna. I have good intel the VD98 multi ends in this stretch. Additionally, I promised Miragee I'd accompany her to the terracache near the north end of Fortuna. An alternative route is MTRP PKG, TD69, VN2T, VDV7, VDGB, W033, VD98, W02T, VDKV, W031, VPEE, VDV7, & VF6B. This comes out to approx 7.5 miles. This avoids the north end and returns down via the Adrenaline cache at the south end of Fortuna. The best place to park for either route is at the end of Corte Playa Catalina, at N32 50.258 W117 04.617. 6P still sounds good to me. count me in for tonight - what is the planned meeting time?

+SD Rowdies Posted August 3, 2006 Share Posted August 3, 2006 (edited) ... Adrenaline cache at the south end of Fortuna. Y'all gonna die! To put it another way, the final approach is to die for. There's a hard way to approach it and a really hard way to approach it, you know, for an old man. Have fun and enjoy the surprise reward. In my case I was further rewarded by a love note from the beautiful and serene Travelita. Edited August 3, 2006 by SD Rowdies Quote Link to comment

Hmm, I guess we'll have to bring a bottle of champagne to celebrate Team Fatman's 100th on Sunday??? Quote Link to comment
+Chuy! Posted August 3, 2006 Share Posted August 3, 2006 Well, the kids are not up to this one, so I am going to sit this out... I feel bad the route influenced your decision not to join us. That was not my intention. You can join us down into the canyon and return when we start going up just prior to VDKV. There should also be plenty of lignt then to afford a lit return. To recap, meet 6p at end of Corte Playa Catalina, at N32 50.258 W117 04.617. Quote Link to comment

We may show up early Sunday, but I have to figure out when I need to get to the airport. I hope everyone has fun! Quote Link to comment
+Team Fatman Posted August 4, 2006 Share Posted August 4, 2006 GD Ginger and I are planning on doing the Subterranean caches near Tecate on Sunday, say depart 0530. There are other nearby caches to grab, including the two in Tecate. If anyone wants to join us, let me know. You may convince me to leave at 6a, but I need to start early 'cause I need to return home by 10a'ish. I got room for one fearless soul in my 2wd pickup - no AC! Sunday early sounds great. Meet where ? SKILLET Sunday 6am at the bridge? Great we get to sleep in!!! If FATTBOY is coming let me know so I can he him a pink sprinkled doughnut!!! TALKED TO FATTBOY TONIGHT AND HE WILL BE WITH US ON SUNDAY SO GET THE DOUGHNUTS. Quote Link to comment
