Iconic logs


Recommended Posts

Posted

:(This log combined with this note appeared in my inbox today. I'm sure you can add to the list of what I shall describe as ICONIC LOGS. :D

I used to work with a bloke who wrote out his customer visit reports like that! :D

 

This guy is some serious cacher. Out of 697 found, 347 were on consecutive days and 148 were FTF's! Puts us all to shame. :D

That's some going seeing as it was 423 days between his 1st and 50th cache. The bug must have bitten him suddenly. :(

Does anyone remember the posts last year about the guy in the States who had written 3 or 4 pages in the cache logs about his failed love-life? It goes on about him about to throw himself off a bridge into a ravine when the cops drove up and asked him if he was OK. It was hilarious. :(

I can remember a log of mine causing much interest back in late 2005 when the humble White Jeep travel bug was much sought after.

 

The cache is Devils Den by Gowenhouse. To enjoy it to the full, read up from where the cache was approved :huh:

he is indeed! Gary is a very local cacher to us, and provides some good FTF competition when he can be bothered! His FTF numbers are nothing though - the serious FTF hound in this area is up near 400 FTFs! Which makes it especially enjoyable to beat him to an FTF, as we did today!

It's been over a year since we enjoyed these "iconic logs" and I'm sure it must be time to post some of the newer ones from the last 12 months. Who's written, or seen, a log that's worthy of sharing with a wider public?

 

A second reason for bumping this topic, too...

 

I know there are many cachers out there who write amusing and/or detailed logs on caches, describing their (mis)adventures. If you're one of them, would you consider writing up a short geocaching story for The Online Geocacher magazine? It has recently been taken over by American cacher Joe Acamo (catsnfish) and, although contributors in the past have been mainly American, he is keen to broaden the readership by encouraging articles from geocachers all round the world. As he says on the home page

 

"Our mission is simple - to give geocachers around the world a free easy-to-use family-friendly publishing capability for their geocaching stories! You are invited to submit any article that is related to geocaching.

Our content comes from you, the geocaching community. Geocaching stories, news, product reviews. in fact anything geocaching-related will all be of interest to our readership, so send it in!"

 

So let's see some more good logs and maybe a few of you can be encouraged to put pen to paper fingers to keyboard to share your geocaching experiences globally.
