+TrailGators Posted January 20, 2007 Posted January 20, 2007 A group of us are headed to Yuma for the event in February. While we are there we would love to spend our time finding the best caches that Yuma has to offer. Our favorite types of caches are the ones that take you to the coolest locations. So what have you got Yuma?! Quote
+TucsonThompsen Posted January 20, 2007 Posted January 20, 2007 Well, I don't know Yuma as well as Tucson, but I've hit my fair share commuting between Tucson and San Diego. I'll give a shout out for: Biblical Tree (GCH083) Headache Avenue (GCMKFM) Julieana's Band (GCH085) and the food is most excellent here! Mission: Impossible (GCMAJR) The Singing Skeleton (GCHKFC) Drums of the Past (GCGWD4) Sea Shells TB Stop and Go!! (GCNWBC) White Cross (GCMZRZ) And of course if you liked TT Nuisance#4, you'll love...Yuma Palms (GCM1D3) I'm looking forward to A.T.M. myself. Jeepen Jumpers always has good ones. Hope that helps. --TT-- Quote

+Chuy! Posted January 23, 2007 Posted January 23, 2007 I have these to offer: Pilot Knob Journey to the Center of the World and a TB hotel near downtown Yuma; GC went down for me; so, I'll have to look it up for your later. Quote

+Chuy! Posted January 25, 2007 Posted January 25, 2007 Sea Shells-TB Stop & Go!! is the cache I couldn't remember. Quote
+TrailGators Posted January 25, 2007 Author Posted January 25, 2007 Sea Shells-TB Stop & Go!! is the cache I couldn't remember. Usually if you can't remember it, then it's not a good sign..... J/K! Quote

I remember the cache clearly; it's the name of the cache I couldn't remember. The "container" will accomodate the largest TB's and swag. Quote
+Miragee Posted January 25, 2007 Posted January 25, 2007 This cache was very memorable for me . . . "Surprise in the Desert" GCTNVP Just don't try to drive beyond the hard-packed sand that leads to it . . . In fact, it is a short walk . . . I would use that method of transportation . . . Quote
+TrailGators Posted January 29, 2007 Author Posted January 29, 2007 Thanks for the input! Here are 25 caches in the Yuma area that look very promising: Quote
The Man Posted January 29, 2007 Posted January 29, 2007 Not only is Julieana's Band a fun cache, if you plan it right you will have an excellent meal! Quote
+TrailGators Posted January 29, 2007 Author Posted January 29, 2007 Not only is Julieana's Band a fun cache, if you plan it right you will have an excellent meal! Thanks! Sounds like we've found one good place to eat! Quote
+FlagMan Posted January 29, 2007 Posted January 29, 2007 Thanks for the input! Here are 25 caches in the Yuma area that look very promising: Hey, Pat, you're pretty good at putting together the consensus lists in bookmark format. How 'bout one for Yuma? I might even buy ya a beer and burrito when we get there... And don't forget to load maps in the GPSr! I always seem to forget to do that... Quote

Ask and you shall receive: Must do caches in Yuma Bookmark. The kind offer of a carnitas burrito and a frio cerveza got the job done muy rapido! Thanks for reminding me about the maps, I always forget to load them too... *Also if I could ask that all future suggestions please include a link to the cache I would be very grateful! That way I can just click and add them to the bookmark! Edited January 29, 2007 by TrailGators Quote

Get yourself an X series and buy a 2GB micro SD and you can forget about the pesky map loading concern forever. I fit the whole US/Canada and a bunch of Topos to boot. Quote
