>gccompany< Posted January 9, 2005 Share Posted January 9, 2005 I just started geocaching two weeks ago, but one of the caches I found was entirely by accident. Could anybody give me tips to make my caching pay off more? Quote Link to comment
+OzGuff Posted January 9, 2005 Share Posted January 9, 2005 I would check in the Getting Started forum, especially some of the pinned threads. Otherwise send me an e-mail at ozguff@mchsi.com and ask away! Quote Link to comment
+Tuck Sackett Posted January 10, 2005 Share Posted January 10, 2005 Check this Thread in the Getting Started Forum http://forums.Groundspeak.com/GC/index.php?showtopic=87556 it has a lot of good ideas for new cachers. Keep caching, it gets easier and we all have DNF's. Quote Link to comment
+Spencersb Posted January 10, 2005 Share Posted January 10, 2005 You might try reading here. Also, based on the location of your finds, you can probably find some helpful folks in the San Antonio Geocachers Yahoo group. Don't give up! I've been at it for 7 months and I'm having more fun every caching trip! Quote Link to comment
+primofam Posted January 11, 2005 Share Posted January 11, 2005 I'd just add to be honest with your hunting. If you have a DNF (Did Not Find), post it. For some it will let them know the difficulty of the hide. Sometimes, it will trigger the cache owner to check and make sure the cache is in the proper place and hasn't been muggled. I love posting my DNFs because I usually hunt until my wife or kids scream at me and I have to stop. Just remember your GPSr will usually have a 3 meter range of accuracy. That's a decent amount of area to look for in the middle of the woods. Enjoy!!! Quote Link to comment
