Geocaching visits The Twilight Zone


Recommended Posts

On tonights episode of TTZ the episode opens with a bunch of college students on an "Internet GPS Treasure Hunt" & waving a GPS unit. Seems some writer went a long way to not say "Geocaching"! Anyway, these poor saps evidently couldn't get a good lock because they found something other than the cache they were looking for!

Just saw the intro..looks like they were definitely using a Meridian, either Gold or Platinum, and they were out on some kind of hunt to find a buried cache inside of a cave up in the mountains of New Mexico, but instead dug up an old Aztec box which contained a vessel of blood that the girl spilled on the ground, then the sun disappears from the sky, yada yada yada...gotta get back and watch the rest.

I found a cache like that once! Went to a spot and dug up a box and there was a bottle and then the lights went out..........Or was it we found a cache and the bottle was in my Camelbak and then the lights went out???......I can't remember???????

Better archive this one.

I made a big decision a little while ago.

I don't remember what it was, which prob'ly goes to show

They DID flash the GPS across the screen, with the backlight on, but unless you had a vcr with freeze frame it was unreadable, and chances are they weren't on the coord screen anyhow. They did name a mountain range on-screen that was supposed to be in New Mexico, but I didn't catch it...if you find the Aztec box, just do us all a favor and don't spill it on the ground.

 

Last log entry from GPSaxophone-

Thanks a lot.

If you did freeze it, the coords would probably be of some place where they were shooting on location in LA. icon_wink.gif
