+Insp Gadget Posted July 1, 2003 Share Posted July 1, 2003 Am I the only one who keeps forgetting to mark the location of my car when I go out to find a cache? Quote Link to comment
+Olar Posted July 1, 2003 Share Posted July 1, 2003 If you can find an up-to-date number on how many cachers are in this World then you will have your answer. Olar "You are only young once but you can stay immature forever" Quote Link to comment
+GroundClutter Posted July 1, 2003 Share Posted July 1, 2003 nope. Step away from the tupperware! Quote Link to comment
+Shawn&Holly Posted July 2, 2003 Share Posted July 2, 2003 Found the cache, lost the truck more then once. Whats more fustrating, not finding the cache and losing the truck!!! Car37 & Shnde Quote Link to comment
jimmyjames Posted July 2, 2003 Share Posted July 2, 2003 Why not just follow your tracks back? Quote Link to comment
+Bzzliteyr Posted July 2, 2003 Share Posted July 2, 2003 You see, what you have to do is this: Go to the nearest dollar store and buy a big bag of gumballs, as you walk down the trail, drop a gumball at regular intervals! It will solve you the hassle of getting lost and you can even eat them all on the way back!! Better than using that darn "bread crumb" tracking thing on your GPS!! And tastier too!!

+Shawn&Holly Posted July 3, 2003 Share Posted July 3, 2003 Yeah, but if you spot a racoon chewing on gum on your way back you may be in trouble. Maybe he will show you the way back if you bribe him with more. Car37 & Shnde Quote Link to comment
+butche Posted July 30, 2003 Share Posted July 30, 2003 Well I figure if I can't find mine, maybe I'll find a better one, Trade up! Close Enough, eh! Quote Link to comment
+MedicP1 Posted August 21, 2003 Share Posted August 21, 2003 Do it the easy way and just tie a string to your bumper and spool out as you go. This also helps quickly alert you if your vehicle gets stolen while you are in the woods geocaching. GPSr's...A step in the right direction! Quote Link to comment
boreal jeff & sons Posted August 21, 2003 Share Posted August 21, 2003 As a matter of course, I always forget. In fact, if I ever did remember, I'd book myself for a MRI. How do they get moose to cross at those yellow road signs? Quote Link to comment
davwil Posted August 21, 2003 Share Posted August 21, 2003 You can also waypoint your car in the mall parking lot. I'm REALLY bad at remembering where it is! One suggestion: If you do waypoint at the mall give it a name... don't think you're going to remember the number after you've waypointed a couple of interesting features you saw on the way to the cache. I can see myself tromping back from one cache in our area near my favourite mall only to find myself near a parking space by the Radio Shack!

+Jayloki Posted August 22, 2003 Share Posted August 22, 2003 hehehe, Found the cache, almost lost the car ,batteries near death in gps. Too much foliage cover to get a good signal. Are these symptoms familiar to you?? If so proceed to the nearest unfound cache immediately and start the entire thing over again! Quote Link to comment
