+kaimaikid Posted January 10, 2003 Share Posted January 10, 2003 To make things easier when searching for caches to hunt, could the cache owner put the area or at least the province in brackets with the title of the cache when entering the cache to the site.... Also, is it possible to get New Zealand broken up into at least north and south islands or better still into provinces.... I know this has probably been thrashed before but I just wanted to thrash it again as it makes sence to me.... Cheers Stoney It's worth a crack....whats there to lose.... Quote Link to comment

Nemesis Posted January 11, 2003 Share Posted January 11, 2003 quote:Originally posted by kaimaikid:...I know this has probably been thrashed before... We thrashed it in this thread, Listing Caches by Province?. Here is our final list of provinces: North Island: Northland Auckland Waikato Bay of Plenty Gisborne Hawke's Bay Taranaki Manawatu-Wanganui Wellington South Island: Tasman/Nelson City Marlborough West Coast Canterbury Otago Southland I have always included the province and the narest significant city, town, or landmark in the names of my caches. This makes it easier for locals (from a particular province) to see exactly where a cache is without opening its description. It would also be really useful to be able to view either all of the NZ caches, or the North or South Island, or the provinces individually on geocaching.com. It would be great if caches could be split into provinces automatically on approval. Cheers, Donovan. Quote Link to comment
+BigNick Posted January 11, 2003 Share Posted January 11, 2003 Yes, I agree this is a good idea (which I have followed since reading the original thread when I got into geocaching (for people new to geocaching, have a look back through the NZ forums as some interesting stuff has been discussed in the past), and following the lead of the other cachers in my area). It would be nice if Geocaching.com did allow you to select NI, SI and maybe finer graduations when you hide a cache, but if everyone remembers to put in the (location) in their cache nickname + combining with Nandors NZCaches.tk, it is not too big a deal. Cheers Nick. Quote Link to comment
