+Chuy! Posted May 3, 2007 Share Posted May 3, 2007 I thought tomorrow was Thursday.. Did you really think I only cached on weekends? Sure had you fooled . I usually work a night shift once a week which gives me a few hours before the night shift to cache. Then after work, I may hit some more under cover of darkness .

+CTYankee9 Posted May 3, 2007 Share Posted May 3, 2007 A little teaser in a photo essay for some upcoming caches : The Sphinx {AKA Teddy} guarding the pyramids Miragee and FisnJack checking out some rocks The Pedestal Teddy dog-tired with Gaskill in the background The 'shroom on first approach The 'shroom in full bloom A photo of a photographer photographing the 'shroom A frog, at least to us Just one of the views to the west Another view This was a very enjoyable hike of approx. 5 miles give or take. The better the atmosphere conditions the better the views. It is starting to get warm up there, although there was a pleasant breeze in the afternoon for our hike. Between Fisnjack, Teddy and myself we easily used 200oz of water, although we had also hiked down to the Ghost Corral and another small hike; Be Prepared! I do believe this would make a great hike for the photographer, the geologist, the nature lover, and even a geocacher or two ! Quote Link to comment

+dhsundance Posted May 5, 2007 Share Posted May 5, 2007 (edited) For those wanting a ride up Gaskill/ Lawson Peak I'll be driving up on Saturday morning. Trailhead location: Another Lyons Valley Roadside Distraction by Miragee N 32° 42.818 W 116° 42.350 I'll be going up with Just Runs Jeep club. The rest of that group will probably just head to Pancake Rock and then head back down the way they came. They don't want to try and head out the direction where the caches are since the gate is probably locked. So I'll stay up there and continue finding caches. I't be great if there were a few other jeepers with me. We're meeting at the Park and Ride at the I-8 and Japutal Rd. Park and Ride at 8:30. I'd like to cache up there until around 4pm and then head back down the hill. Dave Edited May 5, 2007 by dhsundance Quote Link to comment

I should have an x-tra seat open or anyone else wants to come along with their vehicle. No definate plans and I am open to either one of the trails, just want to get the vehicle out and give it a try on a trail, nothing too rough, but just enough maybe to at least try-out the 4WD.

Unfortunately, I can't make the weekday trip (the work thing) but I'll try to tag along on the next weekend trip. My Tacoma was nicely broken in (fortunately, not broken up) on the duganrm tour of Bear Valley a while back (aka Rommel Drives Deep Into Egypt). Nice off-road tour and lots of caches. Photos of the 7 vehicle expedition are here. I can probably dig up the Bear Valley track if you need it. If you want to ease your Blazer into the desert runs, Dos Cabezas is a nice 4WD day trip with some good primitive camp sites if you want to camp out (I suspect you may already know the area well!). I explored the area for the first time last weekend and wouldn't mind going back. Don't get talked into the Lawson 4 run -- I did it on foot and picked up enough jeep parts on the "road" to make it a CITO event Edited May 15, 2007 by M2 Quote Link to comment

+SuperDave! Posted May 17, 2007 Share Posted May 17, 2007 At the POST Flash Mob Cache Event (Link) - Immediately following the PodCacher Flash Mob Cache Event (Link) Jaredloser and Shelby of Team Duckit will be collecting old cell phones to donate to the San Diego Zoo's cell phone recycling project. Ask your friends, family and co-workers for their old phones, chargers and batteries. An ore called Coltan (columbite-tantalite) is a source of the element tantalum which is an essential coating for components of cell phones. This ore is often found in the Congo in the middle of endangered gorilla and elephant habitats. These animals are being killed by rebel bands of natives mining this ore. The U.N. has reported that in the past five years, the eastern lowland gorilla population in the Congo has declined 90%. Reducing the demand for Coltan will help save these animals and their habitat.

More specifically, small amounts of tantalum are used in the manufacture of tantalum capacitors. Tantalum capacitors are valued because they are very small relative to other kinds of capacitors and thus they used in almost all consumer electronic devices. Quote Link to comment

+CTYankee9 Posted May 18, 2007 Share Posted May 18, 2007 Unfortunately I can't cache on Saturdays {a work-day for me! }, but if anyone else is interested I am going to do the Otay Truck Trail this Monday. After the fun I had on my new GeoMobile's virgin drive along the Bear Valley Loop, I am ready for some more . No definate plans as of yet for Otay Truck Trail, although I prefer to start O dark 30 and I will go until exhausted, figure bring a lunch and make a whole day of it. Not certain which end I will start at or which end I will end, but possibly from the west end and then if there is still an interest do some of the caches along the 94 going east bound for a bit.

We need to try to shift one commitment, but if that is successful, we would like to tag along. Quote Link to comment
