+WISearchers Posted September 22, 2003 Share Posted September 22, 2003 Wisconsin Cacher to Florida Cachers, come in Florida Cachers!: Im a WI cacher, and I'd like to ask someone a favor. I'm going to be in Daytona Beach at the Adam's Mark Hotel across from the Ocean Center, next month. While there, I'll be working at a trade show, but I will have some time to cache as well! If you live/work/ drive by that area, could someone mark a waypoint of the Ocean Center or the Adam's Mark Hotel, so that I can do search online for the nearest caches? A zipcode search won't be precise enough, as I won't have a car. I'd like to do a couple caches within a mile or (2 max) as I'll be walking around strange territory. Any help is much appreciated!

+Goblin Posted September 23, 2003 Share Posted September 23, 2003 I don't live in that area but I visit family down that way. One time I flew into Daytona and did caches on my way up to St. Augustine. A really nice one is Pickle 4 I think it is. It's in Bulow State Park. The hike to it is a couple of miles one way but the scenery is well worth it. Bring bug spray. You can see gators, armadillo, boar, snakes and deer along the way. The actual hiding places looks like it is has been visited by otters as there are lots of shellfish shells there. You can try Tamoka Follies #1 and #2 but read the logs. There are some "strange" goings on there. Quote Link to comment
+Doc-Dean Posted September 23, 2003 Share Posted September 23, 2003 Use The Eagle™ geocoder and put in the hotel address and it will give you the hotel's coordinates. I use this whenever I travel and it works great! Let me know if this did the trick for you... --------------------------------------------------- Free your mind and the rest will follow And may no Admin bricks fly your way Quote Link to comment

+theboonieman Posted September 24, 2003 Share Posted September 24, 2003 Try coordinates N29° 13.755 and W81° 00.515. That should put you right on top of the hotel. Quote Link to comment
