+Cow Spots Posted July 15, 2004 Share Posted July 15, 2004 I'm trying to complete a locationless cache called "Where's in a Name?" (GC3153). Hopefully someone in Cincinnati can help me out so we can BOTH bag a cache. The point of this cache is to locate someone along a Latitude or Longitude by generating a coordinate from your caching name. Under the rules of the cache, my team name, The Cow Spots, converts to 84 deg 32.69x (the x can vary) W84 deg 32.69 passes right through Cincinnati, so if any willing cachers out there can take a photo of the area and the coordinates on the GPSr of a location anywhere along W84 32.69x, we can both get credit for the find! If this confuses you a bit, look at the locationless cache page Where's in a Name?. Thanks in advance! Dave, The Cow Spots Quote Link to comment

+Eric K Posted July 15, 2004 Share Posted July 15, 2004 There is a tempory ban on Locationless caches. Sorry! There is ban on adding new locationless caches but most of the ones out there you can still do. I've done the one he's mentioned in the past and it also has finds as recent as July 13th.

My camera is going to be out of town for 10 days, but if no one else comes forward, I can take a picture for you. Quote Link to comment

My camera is going to be out of town for 10 days, but if no one else comes forward, I can take a picture for you. If no one else comes forward, I'll gladly take you up on the offer. I only chose Cincinnati since it's a huge city that this line appears to cross through. Thanks, BJ&SK! Quote Link to comment
+The Dillon Gang Posted July 19, 2004 Share Posted July 19, 2004 Hi, I am a geocaching in San Diego, CA and am looking to find someone who can help me in logging the "Where's in a name cache". See the link below for more information on this cache I need someone to make a picture of hers/his GPS device with at least the following coordinates on the device W84°33.455'. It runs through Florida (near Tallahassee), Georgia (near Atlanta), Tennessee, Kentucky, Ohio (near Cincinnati), Indiana, Michigan ( near Lansing) Please let me know if you can help me in logging this cache. Both the picture taker and the person looking for the picture can log the cache as found. thanks steve dillon Where's in a Name Quote Link to comment

+The Wild Road Posted July 25, 2004 Share Posted July 25, 2004 You are welcome Cowspots and The Dillon Gang! Moe Dante and Wild Road-sensing summer quickly speeding along, realized that this was a great excuse for a roadtrip and went for it. We had great fun deciding where to go to get the pics and once we were at the spots, we nosed around and discovered new places. We ended up placing two new caches because of the new locales we discovered. OK- so here is our request for a turn at this cache. Anybody out there willing to help The Wild Road's request? I converted our name using THEWIL= 84.39.45X. That's right close to where we live. Anyone out there willing to give this one a shot and find an interesting spot to take a pic using these W coords? For a bit of adventure-I could use E 084.39.45X-that would put us in India or Nepal. Hmmm-let's see-Where's that Nepalese discussion board? Quote Link to comment
