I agree. They have always done such a great job at this, but especially with more people in the game now, submitting far more caches than ever. Keep up the good work.
I agree with Dave of Team Deejay. In the upper midwest, it’s the grassy areas where a lot of these ticks hang out. I jokingly refer to Bong as “Tickville” during the months of May-July because it’s the largest state rec area in the Racine-Kenosha area, but LOTS of other places have ticks as well. They are mostly wood ticks which do not spread Lyme Disease, but I had a couple deer ticks crawling on me in S Kettle Moraine in mid-April.
I noticed that too. Any chance it could be the same bear as before?
I read about that a few days ago. How sad indeed. My condolences to Steve and all family members affected.
I am utterly stunned by this. I have had the pleasure of meeting Steve a couple of times, and knew that he had battled health issues, but never expected this. As Roger said, he was a great guy. Thanks for relaying the info, Pappy.
Funny you should bring this up, Donna, since I am in the process of archiving a few of my current caches for the sake of opening the areas up for newer caches. If someone takes advantage of the site for their hides; that’s great. Otherwise, I may place new caches nearby if no one claims the areas in a year or so, but I really don’t have too many problems in finding new places to hide them, so I may go that route instead. Now if only we could get rid of the foot of snow on the ground around here.
About 3 years ago, there were cougar sightings in Western Kenosha County, but never proven. 2 years ago, one was spotted in Minooka Park in Waukesha County. Haven’t heard of any others until this one. Thanks for the heads up, Gary.
I was stopped while checking around the base of a light pole at a rest area off of I-94 once. Geocaching wasn’t very well known about at that time, so I had a lot of explaining to do.
Way to go, Jay..really on a tear with tough terrain caches in the past couple of days; in the winter, no less. Keep up the good work.
I can believe it…you’re phenomenal. Keep up the good work, Matt.
Thanks for all the time and effort you put into reviewing and publishing caches. Hope to see you out on the trails hunting them.

I prefer the hikes off of trails leading to easier finds, but I will take on the challenging caches in the area I live in as well. I believe that any given day, ANY cache can be a challenge. I’ve noticed a trend for a while of smaller containers and micros being more prevalent, but after recently hiding an ammo box in what I thought was a nice out-of-the-way area, and having its contents totally depleted by teen muggles(surprised to see that they left the ammo box plus it’s camo), I can see why people prefer to hide micros. Nowadays, caches come in all sizes, shapes, and degrees of difficulty getting to or finding them. Take your pick.
Congratulations, Dave. Good luck on the quest to 5,000.
