+Ambrosia Posted February 25, 2005 Share Posted February 25, 2005 I was about 1/4 mile from there yesterday. Oh well, c'est la vie. I realized that after I got home. I've been eying that spot for a couple of months, actually, but haven't been to Chelan much cause of the holidays. And it's sometimes harder for me to borrow a gps while going up there. So I took my opportunity! Link to comment
+Ambrosia Posted February 25, 2005 Share Posted February 25, 2005 Looks like we have a new cacher/hider in the area: NWGeocache Link to comment
+robinego Posted March 1, 2005 Share Posted March 1, 2005 Someone who lives further away than any Cachecadian was FTF on the new If Rocks Could Talk cache. First finder was from Spokane. What happened ye FTF fanatics? Ok, this "working" crap has got to end! I mean c'mon, my caching is being severely impacted, what with working at night and then the "sleeping" thing going on during the day. Hey I know, Moun10Bike has a new baby...he can approve our caches in the middle of the night (he's up anyway doing the feeding thing...or should be ) and then I will view them at work before I leave and grab them on the way home... Of course, I have been all too happy to have missed the latest drama in the valley. -R- I'm taking donations so I can quit my job... Link to comment
+xy,xx,xy,xy,xy,xy Posted March 1, 2005 Share Posted March 1, 2005 Are you all proud of me for not rearranging my schedule to need to be on Stemilt hill today? It was hard, but I had to go to Cachmere and Monitor instead. Doggonnit! Link to comment

+xy,xx,xy,xy,xy,xy Posted March 2, 2005 Share Posted March 2, 2005 OK, I couldn't wait any longer. And I managed to hide my March cache today too. Link to comment
+Barnabirdy(s) Posted March 2, 2005 Share Posted March 2, 2005 We want to be there to watch the cache machine take the direct route from Valley View to Rainbows. K&A Link to comment
+The Navigatorz Posted March 3, 2005 Share Posted March 3, 2005 I see xy's new cache is up. It seems to be full of no trespassing signs. I think it should be archived. Link to comment
+The Navigatorz Posted March 5, 2005 Share Posted March 5, 2005 Hey XY, don't fret about the error on your cache page. I had fun and I don't mind being the cache tester. I'm just thankful for cell phones. It saved me from driving back to town empty handed. By the way, I found a plastic purple hippopotumus about 15 feet from the cache. I already put the cache away and was heading back to the car when I spotted it. It must have dropped out of your pocket, or one of your boy's. And for the rest of ya, I know where I'm going to hide my March cache. Going to go there tomorrow to check it out. I think you're going to like the location. Link to comment
+xy,xx,xy,xy,xy,xy Posted March 5, 2005 Share Posted March 5, 2005 That plastic purple hippo floats and has a magnetic nose that will stick to the edge of the bathtub. It will also stick to an ammo can. My guess is that if an ammo can gets set on it in the seat of a car, it will stick to the can until a piece of brush scrapes it off. I wasn't able to find that beaver pond on any maps not even a creek. Maybe it is just a mud hole in the summer. Link to comment
+The Navigatorz Posted March 5, 2005 Share Posted March 5, 2005 My March cache is hidden, cache page submitted, and waiting for approval. Link to comment
+robinego Posted March 8, 2005 Share Posted March 8, 2005 March is in and up already. Man, these approvers need to lay off the caffeine! Dudes, I need to submit another one since you approved it so fast. Got no satifaction since I couldn't tease the others and drag it out! Oh man, now I'm starting to feel a little co-dependent enabling them with their habit. When the cache machine rolls through, I'm buying them a drink...sans caffeine... ok, 2. Link to comment
+GeoRoo Posted March 8, 2005 Share Posted March 8, 2005 There shoudl be more along Hy 28....hint hint. Did Tudles new one at Rocky Reach. Found dead animals bones and body parts though....hmmmmm, found dead animal bones on the Nav cache I did nearby????? Is this a resting place for all the old geocachers? I don't know how I missed it last year, but did the Rocky Reach Surprise way up that knarly road. Easy drive to cache and one that hasn't been logged since Dec. Does anyone drive up that road in the winter? Keep those hides coming, I"m going to do my darndest to head over that way and cache machine my way through all those easy ones in town.......

+The Navigatorz Posted March 8, 2005 Share Posted March 8, 2005 Did Tudles new one at Rocky Reach.and... did the Rocky Reach Surprise way up that knarly road. Ahem....it's Rock Island and Rock Island surprise you went to. Rocky Reach is the other dam place. But that's ok, you at least said Rocky Reach correctly, even though it was the wrong dam. Sometimes we get mail for Rocky Island or Rock Reach. One time we even received a package addressed to Chelan Rock Dam. :-) Link to comment
+robinego Posted March 8, 2005 Share Posted March 8, 2005 Well, I screwed up the math on Lunchtime, but it's fixed now. Used WP1 coords as the final coords so you ended up right back where you started! Ha! Now there's an idea, too bad it's only a 2 step! Link to comment

Roo, sorry you missed out "Where Coyotes Howl", you drove right by it going to Rock ISLAND suprise. And thanks for all the great hides along route 2, we will get to the more distant ones once our motorcycle is back in action. K&A Link to comment
+xy,xx,xy,xy,xy,xy Posted March 23, 2005 Share Posted March 23, 2005 New Cache alert. Irrigation View on Upper Basin Loop Road. View Cache. Drive right up. Link to comment
+xy,xx,xy,xy,xy,xy Posted April 8, 2005 Share Posted April 8, 2005 I hid two new ones today after being unable to get to Road Less Travelled, Rock of Ages, and Sky High. Mission Creek Road and the road that comes out #2 Canyon Rd are both still gated. First I was disappointed, then I got over it by hiding GCND60, Easy as Pi. On the way back down, I hid GCND66, Free Parking. Link to comment
+The Navigatorz Posted April 9, 2005 Share Posted April 9, 2005 Easy as Pi? I love it. Is this the kind of pi that are squared? or the kind of pi that are round? You know how I love math puzzles. Hurry approvers. I'm hungry for some pi. Link to comment
+xy,xx,xy,xy,xy,xy Posted April 9, 2005 Share Posted April 9, 2005 Everybody knows Pie are round. Wendy's hamburgers are square. Hmmm where have I heard that before? Link to comment
+xy,xx,xy,xy,xy,xy Posted April 9, 2005 Share Posted April 9, 2005 Another new one placed this morning: GCNDCQ, Saddle Up! I guess I win the race to hide a cache up on top. Link to comment
+Allanon Posted April 9, 2005 Share Posted April 9, 2005 Everybody knows Pie are round. Not ones that are baked by Geometry classes...we did it square for the teacher for this very reason... Link to comment

When you cachers are up in the saddle, wave. Here's a view from on top looking down on our neighborhood. My house is located in the yellow circle.

Don't you have some reports you need to do at work or some list your wife has for you? Link to comment
+xy,xx,xy,xy,xy,xy Posted April 12, 2005 Share Posted April 12, 2005 Don't you have some reports you need to do at work or some list your wife has for you? Hey, I resemble that remark. I left home at 5:30 Saturday AM, fetched up a couple o' friends and their dogs, and we were all back home before 7:30. I even made my wife breakfast. Link to comment
+robinego Posted April 12, 2005 Share Posted April 12, 2005 I even made my wife breakfast. I'm going to have to talk to her about lunch and dinner as well.... Was going to go up and hit the 2 new hike caches, but had an asthma attack on Sunday. A little little leary of pushing it right now but lack of oxygen never stopped me before. But I promised, even pinkie sweared I wouldn't do it alone because this was the first time my husband saw an attack. I think he's all worried that I'll kick off and leave the kids for him to raise alone! Anybody want to go up tomorrow and still let me get firsties? Link to comment
+Patudles Posted April 12, 2005 Author Share Posted April 12, 2005 (edited) Ha, ha, ha is up. There is a bench mark about 70 feet NE of cache. Edit: Robinego is closet to make a dash for firsties on this one Edited April 12, 2005 by Patudles Link to comment

+robinego Posted April 14, 2005 Share Posted April 14, 2005 Well, I've been out and about for the last 2 days and "dropped" a couple of caches. Get your 4x4 and your hiking stick ready. They ought to be popping up soon enough. Link to comment
+The Navigatorz Posted April 16, 2005 Share Posted April 16, 2005 There's a new cache in them thar hills...Bighorn Sheep Rock. Just got submitted this morning for approval. In the same area as Ha Ha ha and Ohme's Backyard. Link to comment
+Ambrosia Posted April 19, 2005 Share Posted April 19, 2005 I missed my march hide, since I wasn't feeling too good. I've placed two already this month, so maybe one of them could be counted as the march hide. But, really, one of them does not count. Link to comment

+The Navigatorz Posted April 21, 2005 Share Posted April 21, 2005 (edited) Hey Patudles, there's a cache out there I think you would enjoy. It's called How does Your Garden Grow by Miss Contrary. It's just your type, you know...a sneaky micro. I see your friend Miss Innocent found it already. I've got it on my watch list. I'm looking forward to reading your log to see what you thought of it. Edited April 21, 2005 by The Navigatorz Link to comment
+Patudles Posted April 21, 2005 Author Share Posted April 21, 2005 You should know me and math by now These people who try to tempt me with caches that I can't figure out have got to put an end to it. You should notice there is another cache out there that I haven't figured out yet either. I quess it is back to my tutor. Link to comment
+The Navigatorz Posted April 21, 2005 Share Posted April 21, 2005 Hmmmmmmmmm, but Miss Innocent figured it out. I thought if she could, you could too. I guess I was wrong. Link to comment
+Patudles Posted April 21, 2005 Author Share Posted April 21, 2005 Well, she won't answer my emails when I send them to her so I figure she is anti-social. Who knows maybe this will draw her out. Link to comment
+The Navigatorz Posted April 21, 2005 Share Posted April 21, 2005 She didn't answer my email either when I asked her to confirm the coordinates I came up with. Grrrr. By the way, if you or anyone needs a hint for any of my math puzzles, don't be shy. Send me an email. I'll be discreet. I'd rather see someone find my puzzle caches, or learn something new, than not do the cache at all. Link to comment
+xy,xx,xy,xy,xy,xy Posted April 21, 2005 Share Posted April 21, 2005 That goes for me too. I need to log a couple more DNFs for How does your garden grow. I'm pretty sure I'm in the right spot now. I just can't find the blasted thing. Link to comment
+Patudles Posted May 1, 2005 Author Share Posted May 1, 2005 Wow, that was quick, I just sent in my May cache hide for approval and it is up with in 10- 15 minutes of my sending sending it in. Link to comment
