+Carbon Hunter 11 Posted August 10, 2010 I have found a few sites that are useful when researching the placement of caches in our region. Please add your links as and when you find them. And I hope these encourage new caches in this amazing part of the world too. Online guide to information on Near and Middle East: http://www.etana.org/abzu/abzu-processquer...A&sort=auth Salt domes of Central Oman: http://www.ged.rwth-aachen.de/Ww/projects/.../saltdomes.html Fossil sites in the Abu Dhabi region: http://www.adias-uae.com/fossils/Contents.html#anchor207015 Petroglyps in the UAE (some with GPS co-ordinates): http://www3.interscience.wiley.com/journal...=1&SRETRY=0 Please add more - and place caches near some of these Quote Share this post Link to post

+cincol 0 Posted August 24, 2010 Unfortunately for Qatar there are very limited resources available on the 'Net. The best resource that I have come across is parked in my parking bay and requires me at the wheel with my GPSr!!! Apart from that I have a few extremely knowledgable geologists [at al] who I also rely on for expert knowledge of various places. On the plus dide, Qatar is not very big so it is easy to explore the entire country. Quote Share this post Link to post
