Aronius Posted May 28, 2003 Share Posted May 28, 2003 Hey folks, It's been a while since I have checked out the forum. My life only allows for so many obsessions and I probably fit more in than most, unfortunately this forum had to be cut to make room for some other things. Anyway, for some this may be old news, but for those who haven't done it yet, check it out. I have been taking my dog to this park in Martinez, Ca called Briones Regional park. The park allows for your dog to be off leash but asks that you remove your dogs doot. For some reason my dog seems to wait until we're too far in to just throw it in the garbage, but too far from the end to carry it out. So, I have found that waypointing the doot with my GPSr helps a billion. I just modify my hike so that we loop back around and scoop up the doot with a bag on the way out. That way I don't have to hump a smelly bag o' doot in my pack and if it gets dark or I forget the landmarks than all I have to do it follow my GPSr....it's like geocaching all over again....only it smells like (*&^%. Just think, the next generation in geocaching...Geodooting!!! Yeah baby! I figured this was a pretty common sense idea but I had to post it anyway, just for fun. Aronius Farewell Mother Hips....for now. Quote Link to comment
+erik88l-r Posted May 28, 2003 Share Posted May 28, 2003 There are lame caches, and then there are.... well, never mind. ~erik~ Quote Link to comment

+Jpjazz Posted May 28, 2003 Share Posted May 28, 2003 I know of a park nearby where the standard 15foot error would not only lead you to your dogs doot, but to 5 other bonus finds! Jpjazz Quote Link to comment
+Renegade Knight Posted May 28, 2003 Share Posted May 28, 2003 A multi billion dollar satellite system, a cleaner park, and a little something frozen in time in a hermetically sealed land fill that would biodegrade shortly if left alone. Sometiems it just all comes together. ===================== Wherever you go there you are. Quote Link to comment
motoXman Posted May 28, 2003 Share Posted May 28, 2003 For those who do not have a dog but would like to participate in a geodooting type activity; discreetly follow someone walking a dog, wherever dog lifts his leg and "marks his territory" mark the spot. Now come back around with your GPSr and spray all those spots with with some cheap obnoxious perfume and giggle hysterically at the horrified expression of the dog as he returns to check out his handiwork. someday we'll look back on all this and plow into a parked car.

+Last Lap Gang Posted May 29, 2003 Share Posted May 29, 2003 Man that's alot of waypoints to mark with our herd of three greyhounds and a borzoi. My Garmin might not take that much action. Wags, Russ & Erin Quote Link to comment
+mogolloyd Posted May 29, 2003 Share Posted May 29, 2003 What if you save the waypoints and see if there is a pattern? It could be a major scientific disocvery if dogs are trying to tell us something, but we keep ruining it by picking it up. Quote Link to comment
+Desert_Warrior Posted May 29, 2003 Share Posted May 29, 2003 I think some of you folks are pretty lame. I never have a problem finding what my dog leaves behind. NEVER. And I don't need no stinkin GPS to get back to it either. Mike. Desert_Warrior (aka KD9KC). El Paso, Texas. Citizens of this land may own guns.

+High Desert Fish Posted May 29, 2003 Share Posted May 29, 2003 Now that is dedication. I am sure all on the trails appreciate it. What about picking it up with a standard grocery bag and then putting it in a zip lock? L Quote Link to comment
+BASSETSLAVE Posted May 29, 2003 Share Posted May 29, 2003 What happens if there are two geodooters in the same area and that geodooter grabs your doot before you have a chance to bag the doot for logging or is there a way to log doot on the geocaching page before your doot is grabed? God I Need A Life. To many years with the Federal Government. BASSETSLAVE ----------- If you have the nose of a basset there is no cache that you can not find and you are never lost.

im4kcmo Posted May 30, 2003 Share Posted May 30, 2003 Please don't post the doot sites on this web page, I don't want to pick it up. The evil koala in my closet makes me geocache. Team Hunter (Our last names) Quote Link to comment
