+The Hornet Posted January 7, 2004 Share Posted January 7, 2004 If you want to be alerted to new caches in your area check out this very useful (and free) tool. http://www.rusticweb.com/geocaching/ncalert/ Peter Quote Link to comment
+Stuey Posted January 7, 2004 Share Posted January 7, 2004 Me and a mate were out night caching the other evening, and we knocked off three FTF's between us. Pretty amazing for this area. It was lucky that I spotted two new ones on my GC list a few moments after they were approved, and just a few minutes before logging off to go out for another recent cache that hadn't been found yet. We got them all, and an extra one that had already had a few visitors. Thanks, I'll check out the link. Quote Link to comment
+Lance Ambu Posted January 7, 2004 Share Posted January 7, 2004 Buxleys maps also shows new caches and in some cases I think it gets them before they are approved, certainley before the weekly notification. Look for the blue dots Quote Link to comment
+Rocky Balboa Posted January 8, 2004 Share Posted January 8, 2004 Nice one, now perhaps those of us who dont sit infront of their computers and press refresh once every 10 seconds will have a chance to beat you to a cache or two cheers peter! Quote Link to comment
+hedberg Posted January 8, 2004 Share Posted January 8, 2004 A little suggestion; if you have a cellphone that can receive email, for example can people mail to my cellphone and I recieve the mail as a SMS. Go the the NCAlert website and write down the mailaddress for your cellphone. Voila! Every time a new cache is approved nearby your home will you recieve an email to your cellphone also...

+Seasider Posted January 9, 2004 Share Posted January 9, 2004 I just don't understand why everyone rushes about wanting to be first to a cache! I definitely won't be using that tool! Seasider Quote Link to comment
+NattyBooshka Posted January 9, 2004 Share Posted January 9, 2004 I just don't understand why everyone rushes about wanting to be first to a cache! I definitely won't be using that tool! Seasider We noticed... there's one within 50 miles of here that you haven't found yet! Off to bag it but FTF has gone today... still maybe G:UK can give us a new stat for "found it before Seasider!"
