+gunx Posted June 9, 2003 Share Posted June 9, 2003 Just started learning about our Garmin 76s, using geocaching to help teach me. Started our first search for a cache on Saturday. We were within sixty feet or less of our first cache and became disusted with the trash around us. Ended up forgetting about the cache and packing out over 60 lbs of trash, including broken glass. We'll go back and find that cache soon though Quote Link to comment

+ScurvyDog Posted August 5, 2003 Share Posted August 5, 2003 If each GeoCacher could just pick up a half pound of trash at each cache. Think how much of a differents we could make. Most litterbugs don't throw out that much at one time (do they?). 8oz(s). will fit in a small pocket and just think we all have about 3 pockets left of other stuff. I do this, how about you?

Destrees of Texas Posted August 9, 2003 Share Posted August 9, 2003 In geocaching, our goal is to find the cache of course but even more important in my mind is to leave the cache site better and cleaner than when i found it. I usually fill at least one plastic grocery sack full at most caches we find. Some we could use a trash truck but at least my bags are a start. We keep all plastic bags in our pack and dump the trash trash in the trash and recycle the recyclables... okay i am a bit extremely obsessive about it at times but it makes the world a better place.
