Wetsiders beginning to wish we were drysiders after 2 mos. of daily rain (except for 2 or 3 days). Getting tired of sloggy trails and muddy clothes... looking forward to a nice summer

It's about time i explained this thread to everyone.

 

Last week, while surfing the forums, i realized that no one had brought up the differences in rating stars one sees when viewing a wetside cache and a dryside cache. That is to say, a 3/3 in lake O would amount to about a 1/1.5 in, say, 97702.

 

I had this great post going that basically poked fun at us portlanders for our liberal rankings--complete with links to comparable caches on both sides of the mountain.

 

But after hitting the 'post now' button, i realized that i was logged in under laurencat's name. So i erased the whole thing as best i could, not knowing--at the time--that we had the option to delete a post.

 

So my bad.

Does the delete post option actually work?

I tried it early on and it didn't work - even though it offered.

 

Update: I just tried deleting this post immediately. It says that the forums don't allow it.

So is a westside wetsider better or worse than a drysider? How about an eastside wetsider?

I don't even OWN rubber boots, not since I moved out of the Wetside. However, when we try to do more caches on the Wetside (having exhausted a good portion of them over here) we tend to go completely unprepared.

 

Last weekend, Eugene caching binge. This week, poison oak. *sigh* I keep trying to tell myself "leaves of three let them be" but dang some of these caches seem to be smack dab in the middle of the poison oak! Is this a cruel joke?

 

I think I would rather deal with rattlesnakes and black widow spiders.
