+Miragee Posted March 25, 2008 Share Posted March 25, 2008 Whoooo Hoo . . . a new cache in ABDSP. Who will be FTF on this one? ABDSP -- A Virtual Tour of the SW Region P.S.

+Renegade Knight Posted March 25, 2008 Share Posted March 25, 2008 I get the impression that you people think that ABDSP needs the help of geocachers in order to maintain a reasonably trash free park. Is that impression correct? Not at all. It would be more accurate to say that since ABDSP has a trash problem they can use the help of geocachers to help keep it clean. Most parks don't have a crew like Disneland whos job it is to jump out and sweep up each individual gum wrapper as fast as it hits the ground. Link to comment

All he ever does is constantly needle us like a troll. It's pointless to argue about the benefits of having a CITO event that hauls out two truckloads of desert trash off a 2-mile stretch of highway every six months. You don't realize how bad the pollution from non-geocachers is in ABDSP until you actually participate in these CITOs to see it and pick it all up firsthand. Yet these polluters are allowed to stay and we get booted. Go figure... Edited March 25, 2008 by TrailGators Link to comment

I support the continued visitation of the park and the wonderful places that geocaches have highlighted in the park. The cache is a good way around the current policy of this individual park. The cache page is accurate in the events as I have seen them. The do leave out the fact that Groundspeak is still trying to work out a solution and more importantly, the local geocachers are continuing to fight the tons of litter non-geocachers are dumping in desert. I do think it is a bit inflamatory and is pretty much giving the superintendent the finger. Maybe not the best way to show that geocachers can be reasonable. Link to comment

Talk in here is both easy and cheap. Yes it is cheap. How have you met the challenge yourself? Yesterday I handed the Executive Director of the Portneuf Greenway the first check from the sale of a geocoin to generate some funding for their trail system. They support caching on their system. Today I'll be making a phone call to clear a log jam that has gotten in the way of a new trail. We do what we can, where we are, with what we have. It works well for the Greenway, it's worked well for caching here where I am. If they have a question or problem, guess what, I'll get a call. Show me you do more than talk about cheap talk.

You are welcome to log my cache with Sock Puppet accounts, but I would rather people go out and enjoy those wonderful desert locations. "The Powder Can Cache" is in an incredible location, and I loved finding T.R. Violin's "Little Pass." I included Team Duckit's caches in my list because I thought it was great that he put caches out there to honor his two daughters. It is distressing that these people don't want us to enjoy our chosen pastime in a State Park that is open to all sorts of other activities. As I have said before, it is a Park not a Preserve.

I bolded the two things that you got totally right... Personally, I think that you are mistaken: "Anza-Borrego Desert State Park is the largest state park in California. Five-hundred miles of dirt roads, 12 wilderness areas and miles of hiking trails provide visitors with an unparalleled opportunity to experience the wonders of the California Desert. The park is named after Spanish explorer Juan Bautista de Anza and the Spanish name borrego, or bighorn sheep. The park features washes, wildflowers, palm groves, cacti and sweeping vistas. Visitors may also have the chance to see roadrunner, golden eagles, kit foxes, mule deer and bighorn sheep as well as iguanas, chuckwallas and the red diamond rattlesnake.

+TrailGators Posted April 13, 2008 Share Posted April 13, 2008 * That was really weird. It posted fine and now it is gone. Then I couldn't edit that post and post a new image because it kept saying "IPB image," but if I made a new post it worked... Link to comment
+Snake & Rooster Posted April 13, 2008 Share Posted April 13, 2008 Ahhh, I see. Some of these people should really get out and cache more, instead of feeling an obligation to comment on every thread on the site. Love that ignore button Link to comment

+SKILLET Posted May 27, 2008 Share Posted May 27, 2008 (edited) Received this about the new Cache at the Ranger station in Ocotillo Wells Welcome to Ocotillo Wells SVRA GC1CE2A Skillet, you are indeed the first Geocahing Enthusiast to find this cache, the other listed was one of the rangers who wanted to try and locate the cache. I know that you are very involved with caching and was wondering if you could give me some information about how to make the Cache Page nicer, perhaps how to put photos on the actual page. If you are willing to help me out I would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Andrew S. Ahlberg California State RangerOcotillo Wells SVRA Desk: 760 767 1322 Cell: 760 791 8233 Of course I will help them with their Cache pages Edited May 27, 2008 by SKILLET Link to comment
