Found "Leopold Legacy: January" GCKAK3 today.

 

I walked around in circles for about 30 min...and then just happened to see it. It was about 20 feet from where my GPS60 Csx said it should be.

 

Great exercise...I guess I'll go buy some boots and a Machete for the next find.

Congratulations! :P

Within 20 feet is good. That's within the normal accuracy of a GPSr.

 

Uh, you were kidding about the machete, weren't you? :rolleyes:

Yeah ... a machete would be too obvious ... you need some "official" looking safety vests and long handled pruners and a hat marked with something like ... "Forest Maintenance Service" .... :)

I'm actually a bit jealous. I'd love to be starting all over with all of the local caches to find!

May I suggest some gardening gloves and a hiking staff instead of the machete?

 

Oh, and congratulations.

Congratulations on the MEFF (the Florida variation of FTF; MEFF=Most Excellent First Finder. It has the advantage of conjugating well. If you tell somebody you're FTFing the cache they're liable to tell you to "cut that out", but you can sure be out MEFFing them.

Welcome Aboard!

 

Once you find your first cache you won't want to stop.

 

I'm a 1 week old newbie and loving it. Great way to spend time in the outdoors

which I love to do anyway. :laughing:
