Just curious how many Pennsylvanians post to these boards and geocache...

 

What region of the state are you from? Are you interesting in caching with others (me or others from PA)?

 

I'm from South Central PA... :)

I was recently out in the Pittsburgh are and picked up a couple caribiners with a key ring and attached was a 1 x 4 inch piece of stainless or aluminum that had "Pensylvania Geocacher" cut out of the metal. It is also numbered. I can not find out anything about these, or if they should be logged. They would make a nice key chain. Do you have any info on these?

Those keychains are made by "PA - Drifter" They are his sig item. He is a steel worker and hand makes them himself. They are awesome. He places one at each cache he visits, and his cache count is the number you found. His first 100 just said Pennsylvania Geocacher on rectangle piece of stainless, but his new style for 101+ says the same thing, but is shaped like the State.

 

Here is his profile that also has pics of his keychains.

Hmm, if I chimed in I can't find it...

 

Most of the time I'm in Derry Twp, Dauphin Cty, but also pay taxes in Farmington Twp, Tioga Cty, a far more exclusive community. :laughing:

Anyone ever do this in a group where not everyone has equipment. I just heard about this and would love to take my "little sister", but I don't have GPS, so I am not sure how successful it would be. Would love to watch/tag along before I decide to invest. I especially want to make sure she would want to do this regularly. Anyone interested...we live near 100s of caches in NE Phila.

I go to school in Pittsburgh, but my family lives in Philadelphia. I'm only really home during breaks, but even then I'm out hiking or traveling a lot. I just got into caching, but I'd definitely head out in a group if people were interested.

South Central Pa, Lancaster Area...cache the area when I can but want to start vacation caching...also looking for good parks to go to that have many caches and can be a full day of hiking and caching.

I was born in Butler, PA, raised in Greenville, PA. All my family is still there, so I'm back there several times a year visiting and sneaking in some geocaching. :)

 

So I consider myself a part-time resident. B)

I am originally from Greenville, PA but had to recently move to Michigan for a job :)

I consider myself a part time resident too (haha!) since we come back to visit every couple of weeks. I prefer geocaching in PA over Michigan...but I might just be biased :)

Easton, PA here.. Just getting into this, new GPS will be here today so I can stop using my cell phone for it! (there's actually 6 of us in this house that have gotten into it.. lots of fun for the kids!)
