+GeoLobo Posted December 6, 2010 Share Posted December 6, 2010 Do you feel like your geocaching ends come winter? If so, you are def a candidate for the Mid-Winter Geocaching event held each February in the Adirondack Mountains of Upstate New York. If you have never experienced Geocaching in the Snow (Wait deep!), then now is the time to participate in one of the greatest Winter events in the North East (Getting better every year) This year will be the 5th Annual Mid-Winter Geo-Get Together in Long Lake, NY! Here are the four events being held back to back the weekend of the Mid-Winter Event Friday Evening (Feb 25th, 2011) 2011 Mid-Winter Meet and Greet http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_details.aspx?wp=GC2K3FW Saturday (DAY) (Feb 26th, 2011) Mid-Winter GeoCaching Get-Together 2011 http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_detai...36-c92b34657306 Saturday (Evening) (Feb 26th, 2011) Mid-Winter Geo Survival Campout 2011 http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_detai...f9-4e795c90e971 Sunday (Noon) (Feb 27th, 2011) 2011 Mid-Winter Flash Mob Event http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_detai...40-273be038d6fb Come to one, or come spend the entire weeken.

+buttaskotch Posted December 8, 2010 Share Posted December 8, 2010 I've taken a caching hiatus since the summer, but this something that may drag me out of it. Everything but the camp out interests me. Gonna have to research local lodging in the area, unless you can suggest good areas nearby for lodging. Note: I have slept in 2 Ice Hotels in Scandanavia in extreme cold before, so I KNOW I want a warm bed for this one! Lol. Quote Link to comment

It is so much warmer, especially if you dig all the way to the ground. I have stayed at the Shamrock Motel, and the Adirondack Hotel. Both were fine for me, except they both had four walls.

+briansnat Posted February 18, 2011 Share Posted February 18, 2011 (edited) We booked our room for Friday and will be camping on Saturday. See ya all there. Edited February 18, 2011 by briansnat Quote Link to comment
+briansnat Posted February 22, 2011 Share Posted February 22, 2011 (edited) Any other NJ cachers up for this weekend? Sounds like a blast. Skigirl and I booked a room for Fri and we're camping out Saturday. We'll probably miss the flash mob on Sunday. We have room in the car for one for the ride, leaving abut 6 on Friday and returning Sunday as early as possible. As far as accommodations you're on your own (though I can lend a tent for Sat).
