+DragonsWest Posted March 7, 2012 Share Posted March 7, 2012 I have this dream... there's a power trail, where all the local ones are connected, and you can cache from one coast to the other. Quote Link to comment
+jellis Posted March 7, 2012 Share Posted March 7, 2012 I have a feeling that this will be moved to a different section of the forum Quote Link to comment

Hmmm sounds like a group operation. Considering the TOW series in Ventura County, some of those stretches around Mojave, then the ET highway .. I think it could be done. Scary thought, innit?

+BBWolf+3Pigs Posted March 7, 2012 Share Posted March 7, 2012 Does everything have to be bigger in Texas? And of course, Rhode Island is home to the shortest power trail. Quote Link to comment

Last night I got the first 226 cache in The Lone Star Trail published.. Is there a target number of caches you are looking to have on this power trail? No there is no target, but I hope with some help it can grow to well over 5000, including both a East/West route and a future North/South route.. Quote Link to comment

Pfft, only 700 miles? My son and I put that many miles on our car driving just to visit a potential college last month. My commute from my hometown to college was 500 miles one way without hitting a border. Texas is a really big state. Quote Link to comment

From http://www.cacheoped...wiki/Glossary#L LPC - Lamp Post Cache - a cache hidden under the decorative skirt at the base of a lamp post Shush!! Its a Good Thing that a powertrail cacher doesn't know what those are!! MattChris... just never mind. As you were. You're doing just fine. Quote Link to comment
+niraD Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 Shush!! Its a Good Thing that a powertrail cacher doesn't know what those are!!Is there really any meaningful difference between hundreds of fungible LPC hides and hundreds of fungible UPS hides? Quote Link to comment

Its a Good Thing that a powertrail cacher doesn't know what those are!!Is there really any meaningful difference between hundreds of fungible LPC hides and hundreds of fungible UPS hides? The difference with LPC along a power trail is the paint, skirt and pole will all suffer considerable damage as hundreds of geocahers seek out the cache. One of the greatest reasons I dislike them is the paint, even when caches are hidden nearby a Lamp Post, suffer. It's property damage. Quote Link to comment

One of the greatest reasons I dislike them is the paint, even when caches are hidden nearby a Lamp Post, suffer. It's property damage. I was just kidding around in the 3rd post when I noted the very first one is an LPC, in what (looks like) an Auto Parts store parking lot. This is going to be one seriously high-traffic LPC!! The cache owner should really ensure he has permission for that one. Even though we know everyone always checks the box every time saying they have permission for LPC's anyways. I had a post erased from this thread, I think I may have set the one day record. Quote Link to comment
+GMartinTX Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 With the Texas Challenge happening nearby this weekend, drawing in lots of folks to a Mega event, this trail will be seeing a LOT of action in the next few days. My friends and I included... Quote Link to comment
