Deego Posted February 26, 2005 Posted February 26, 2005 I have been out today in the snow (Big kid I know) I did not find either of them more from fear of leaving a trail that might compromise the cache than being unable to find them. Have you got snow? and how did you cope? Cache number one Cache number two Quote
+Kitty Hawk Posted February 26, 2005 Posted February 26, 2005 I assume the photo's are there to wind up those of us in more tropical lattitudes who went to Derbyshire two weeks too early Quote
+dysdera Posted February 26, 2005 Posted February 26, 2005 I placed a cache a couple of days ago and placed it on the only hill in the area which had snow. While I was there a news company were filming a news report about the bad weather. Quote
+Cave Troll and Eeyore Posted February 26, 2005 Posted February 26, 2005 Snow, what snow. We reckon all this talk of snow at the moment is a government fabrication to keep us off the roads Quote

+Team Maddie UK Posted February 27, 2005 Posted February 27, 2005 Snow, what snow.We reckon all this talk of snow at the moment is a government fabrication to keep us off the roads Aww come on guys... I just spent 10 days 5km off the coast near Southport and we actually got some snow on the rig Martin Quote
+Cave Troll and Eeyore Posted February 27, 2005 Posted February 27, 2005 IT is actually snowing right now !!! I don't think it will stick though Quote

Deego Posted February 27, 2005 Author Posted February 27, 2005 You're on the wrong side of that wall. Oh thats why I could not find it The photo is about .2 of a mile away from the cache site, after that I gave up following the wall around Quote
+stu_and_sarah Posted February 27, 2005 Posted February 27, 2005 I have been out today in the snow (Big kid I know) I did not find either of them more from fear of leaving a trail that might compromise the cache than being unable to find them. Have you got snow? and how did you cope? We placed a cache in Finland as a group of around 20 cachers after a cache meet. To disguise our trail we all wallked around all the other trees so that nothing was too obvious! Sarah -- Quote

+davy boy Posted February 27, 2005 Posted February 27, 2005 T alking about snow!!! We have seen our share of snow this weekend after doing some of the Cadair letterbox hybrids on sat and some of the ice formations and the drifts on the top were excellent but it was VERY cold. Sun we found Peny fantastic and Tomy jones on the Brecon beacons and this is my favorite cache ever,the views are stunning and the snow was about four foot deep in places,not logged them yet as just got home.Four of us went up to Wales for the weekend and would recomend it,but dont expect your legs to work on mon morn Quote
+Alibags Posted February 28, 2005 Posted February 28, 2005 Failed to find a cache yesterday in snowy conditions. The huge amounts of trampling around every tree within a 100 foot radius by 5 people would certainly have laid a few false trails, so I don't think that would have given the game away. However, the vast clouds of steam and blue air caused by manic searching may well have alerted attention at the time! Quote
+CuplaKiwis Posted February 28, 2005 Posted February 28, 2005 Came back to the UK yesterday after a week in Thailand on Honeymoon. I reckon this snow thing is just a bad hallucination I'm having as a reaction to having to go back to work tomorrow! Quote
+Belplasca Posted February 28, 2005 Posted February 28, 2005 I found a cache near Folkestone yesterday, and had to wait for a few minutes for the blizzard to stop... Of course, by the time I got to the cache, the sun was shining from clear blue skies! Bob Aldridge Quote
+Brenin Tegeingl Posted February 28, 2005 Posted February 28, 2005 I f you take children out caching with you, please take extreme care of them! A young lad has been killed in Scotland by a Giant Snowball , here is the article on the BBC News Web site. And before anyone complains, I personaly concider that this is a issue related to geocaching, considering that a child out caching with their parents, could creat something simular! Dave Quote
+davy boy Posted February 28, 2005 Posted February 28, 2005 (edited) Wadders testing snow depth on Peny fan This was a fence on top of Cadair idris on sat!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Edited February 28, 2005 by davy boy Quote

Dave well don't push your kid down the hill then! I couldn't believe that post about the snowball - I saw it a couple of days ago. A sad tragic accident and one thats unlikely to happen again (i hope) Quote
