No, if it were he’d only be holding some Google map printouts. 😈

Interesting stuff. I’m guessing this is similiar equipment to what high-tech farmers use for planting. Though I’m not sure about that portable desktop-thingy.

We have actualy have talk to someone about doing a maze on the back 40, or I should say my wife has. Cost is not too expensive. I know there are a couple over near the Cities.

The only corn maze we have visited was one east of Janesville in the fall of 1998 that they made for Wisconsin’s sesquicentennial. It was in the shape of the state with a barn, the sun, and some other symbols inside of the outline. At certain junctions they had signs with questions about Wisconsin (multiple choice), and depending upon your answers, you continued on through the maze or got lost!

I remember them saying that satellites were somehow used to help design and create that maze. Just saw a segment on a Madison station about a 21-year-old who has worked on about 20 corn mazes this summer. Here’s the link: http://www.channel3000.com/news/21154348/detail.html

And, Cheezehead, if you end up doing a maze on your back 40, please, please, PLEASE be a bit more accurate with your GPS use there than you are on some of your cache placements. You know, that fat fingers thing? 😉

There’s a big corn maze about two miles from here every fall. On weekends close to Halloween, they do the haunted maze thing, too. Our son used to look forward to being one of the ghouls for it.

Welcome

I went to door county a couple of summers ago, went to some “famous” place for ice cream (it was damn good) looked up on the wall and they had a bunch of pictures of corn mazes. Didn’t think much of it so i start looking at the menu

cones – 3.50
cookies – 1.95
water – 2.00
Corn Maze – 8.00
Fudge – 2.00/pnd

wait, what is Corn Maze for 8.00?? The counter person answered that’s the price to go through our Corn Maze in the field outside. So I asked, is that a tractor ride ? No , you walk through, its a mile or more if you walk every path. So I ask, or is there anything in the maze to look at or do?

No

Ok, so hold on a sec, you want me to pay you 8 bucks to walk through what amounts to nothing more than a corn field?

Yes

I walked out before I lost it in front of them…

Maybe if there was a 3/3 rating and a smiley or two involved? 😀 😀

I know Putterizer wanted to hide a cache in/near that one T&B, but couldn’t since the maze was only for a month.
We have never been through a corn maze, but we may just have to go to the one near here someday.
