TripleMCachers Posted June 1, 2002 Share Posted June 1, 2002 The code next to a cache...looks similar to a ham radio operator's number. Can someone enlighten me? Pretty please? Holly Selden & Family Quote Link to comment

TripleMCachers Posted June 1, 2002 Author Share Posted June 1, 2002 Very helpful! Thanks to all who have come to the aid of a newbie anxious to get "caching".... I've started my cache box and will be placing my first as soon as I have my GPS. Holly Selden Quote Link to comment

Welcome to geocaching! A word of advice, though, before you place your first cache...you might want to go out and find a couple of already existing caches (just to get some ideas on how/where to hide them, what works/doesn't work, etc). ------- "I may be slow, but at least I'm sweet!"

+Markwell Posted June 2, 2002 Share Posted June 2, 2002 Thanks again for the plug (as always). I've been away from the boards with an extended weekend of caching and dashing. Wooooo Hooo! Markwell Chicago Geocachers Quote Link to comment
