    I just learned this yesterday…

    [email protected] is a better bet.

    in reply to: UWGB disables all caches on campus! #1875645

    A couple of thoughts on this…..

    1. Ms. Corio contacted geocaching.com (out in Seattle) with her request. That request was then passed on to the local reviewer to take care of it.

    2. The caches were not archived, simply temporarily disabled. The hopes were that once the geocachers who had caches there could have a chance to communicate with Ms. Corio, maybe she could change her mind on the whole thing.

    3. When a request like this comes in, it is VERY important that geocaching.com respond quickly and as directed. This will make the landowner with a problem feel better about possible future problems. In the end, showing responsiveness should increase the comfort level for a land owner regards to geocaching.

    Finding the bubble gum in the cache was a treat too. 🙄 🙄

    E-mail is easy to ignore…

    Pick up the phone: (206) 302-7721

    The last time I called that number Jeremy Irish himself answered it.

    Remember they are on Pacific time, so you might need to wait until lunch time here.

    Here is a note from the editor of the magazine:

    The best way to forward digital images for our consideration is to forward them as attachments, preferably JPEGs or in the original format a the original resolution. Don’t try to enhance or manipulate the photos before sending them as these changes tend to affect our ability to consider them for publication. Strong shots would have even lighting (no really blasted white areas or really dark spots), sharp focus and resolution at least 300 dpi for an image of four inches square or so. We like shots that bring readers close to the action so they can see the details on the GPS unit, details of what a cache looks like and the faces of people enjoying the geocaching experience. Try not to give us photos of people taken from the “3B’s” (butts, backs and boots) because people feel left out of the experience when viewed from the back row of an event. Thanks to the geocaching community for their help. We are aiming to show readers how GPS units add to outdoor enjoyment when hiking, fishing, locating a campsite or enjoy a relatively new activity like geocaching.

    in reply to: How much longer should we wait? #1874884

    Have a look at the Long Disabled Cache Cleanup policy. I have gotten a little behind due to the campout.

    Now that we are past the campout and we are 3 reviewers strong, rest assured that I will be back at it.

    I have a small bag of match light type charcoal — will that work for lighter fluid (I know you guys prefer lighter fluid)?

    Please bring it along if nobody signs up to bring lighter fluid.

    in reply to: Looking For Donations #1874511

    I just added that we also need lighter fluid for the charcoal.

    in reply to: Looking For Donations #1874507

    I have a gas grill, therefore, no charcoal. 😉

    in reply to: WGA Service Project – Garlic Mustard Pulling #1874431

    If you don’t have garlic mustard in your part of the state, you soon will. This plant is pretty amazing. I have seen it poke up *through* the snow in places. It often is the first thing green in the spring and then it blocks out all of the native plants.

    This would be a great time to learn something about it and how best to control it, all while helping out the park.

    Phew! That penned prose is perfectly preposterous.
