Trackinfind Posted December 9, 2008 Share Posted December 9, 2008 Just interested to know: How many of the people who retrieved Cape Union Mart Reindeer are GeoCachers, & Russel, why didn't you get the one in London? Quote Link to comment
+anlufu Posted December 9, 2008 Share Posted December 9, 2008 Just interested to know: How many of the people who retrieved Cape Union Mart Reindeer are GeoCachers, & Russel, why didn't you get the one in London? Spent an hour poking around in the wet fynbos on the mountain yesterday only to be beaten by an ex-geocacher! Quote Link to comment

+Wazat Posted December 9, 2008 Share Posted December 9, 2008 I forgot aboput it and missed the one in Durban... If I had just looked at the web page while in durban I might have clinched it... I however looked for new caches instead... LOL. Quote Link to comment
+CapeDoc Posted December 10, 2008 Share Posted December 10, 2008 D'Bob You seem to have skirted questions about placing one of the reindeer in Richmond Park. Is it just chance that YOURS was the nearest cache? Did you help C.U.M.? Quote Link to comment
+amaSoekSoek Posted December 10, 2008 Share Posted December 10, 2008 (edited) Just after the co-ordinates where release for the PE one, we were about 4-6 people searching for it. I did not recognise any of them as local geocachers. We searched for it for about 2 hours without any luck. Trust me if I say it was well hidden in an area with thick thorny bush & trees. I searched again this morning for about an hour, only realizing later it was found last night at 7:15pm. And in the end, I think some NON-geocacher found it !! Not sure where though... I defnatively need to brush up on my caching skills ! (As the vision of a shiney new garmin GPS fades like mist before my eyes...) Edited December 10, 2008 by amaSoekSoek Quote Link to comment
besem Posted December 10, 2008 Share Posted December 10, 2008 Any guesses where the third international one will be hidden? I'm putting my money on Canada, probably Vancouver. With one hidden in London already, I think I can forget about that Dutch reindeer. q: Quote Link to comment
Trackinfind Posted December 10, 2008 Author Share Posted December 10, 2008 I think I saw something somewhere suggesting New York?? Not too sure, but that leaves the last 2 for SA, I hope they are in the Cape! Quote Link to comment

I had nothing to do with it, pure coincidence. Incidentally, my cache close to that one (Thud) was going to have a sister cache placed near Crystal pools in Gordons Bay in Sept, if only it had stopped raining! Besem, yes the final overseas one is going to be in new york Quote Link to comment
besem Posted December 16, 2008 Share Posted December 16, 2008 Nooooo! The reindeer in Stellenbosch was located close to where I lived... and *very* close to where I often took my telescope to go skywatching! Quote Link to comment
