+ATMS Posted June 1, 2006 Share Posted June 1, 2006 (edited) 1) always wear long pants while geocaching in the bush 2) no need to rush to the cache...control yourself and walk carefully - tripping is no fun 3) blood from cut legs from tripping is an instant attracter for bugs 4) keep wet wipes in the cache pack for when you rushing to the cache and trip 5) did I mention that you should always wear long pants while geocaching in the bush 6) don't leave you pen/pencil in the car - it's a log trip back to get to sign the logbook 7) leaves of three are as friendly as can be....oh wait, that doesn't sound right 8) keep the cachepack loaded and ready to go at all times in the car - you don't want to be a slug when there is something you want and don't have anything to trade 9) stay on good terms with your Dr. so she will just call in the prenazone for the poison ivy- a few times each season 10) the straightest path to the cache isn't always the best route - wait for it...wait for it...There's the geopath! any others?

It's the most important lesson that I can offer to all newbs. Oh yeah, bring bug spray when caching in South Florida. Edited June 1, 2006 by nickie218 Quote Link to comment

+KoosKoos Posted June 1, 2006 Share Posted June 1, 2006 (edited) always waypoint your car (if different from the trailhead previously mentioned). and what are these long pants of which you speak? -- proudly caching in shorts except in the very rare case of cold weather.
