I debated on placing it in THIS thread but was affraid some people might not see it. Therefore I opted putting it on it’s own. The reason it was written in the first place is that I received an e-mail in concern of issues I might have with the reviewing process or reviewers. I just wanted to the it known that I realize they are not really out to get me/us, etc. and they do a fine job.

I didn’t realize it was going to be such a big flippin issue to make a new topic, but I guess I must be utilizing valuable resources or something by posting it there. I just wanted those who may not come back to THIS topic to understand my comment was not to be negative towards the reviewers. I’ll remove it as not to cause any other problems. Since you were kind enough to copy and paste it here, I won’t need to do so again.

Wholey cow. I go out caching for ONE day and come back to a whole lot of info I gotta get moving on LOL Thanks for states. I am working on a file and will post what I have sooooooooooon.

Would have done that today but I am trying to reach my goal of 400 my Dec 31, 2005, so we were out in West Bend and got 30 in for the day. Darn I already HAVE Washington Co.

Me and the Digital man are heading out to West Bend for a FULL day oc caching, on Monday. Think we have that one on our list. would like to get to my goal of 400, but that would me trying to get 96 in one day. Hmmmmmm if the Ecorangers can do it I guess I can sure try

[Cache_boppin_BunnyFuFu]

It’s kinda of interesting to have one of each kind, when out and about finding caches, just to see the differences in accuracy, etc. Have not seen a Lowrence yet. Would be kinda neat to get one of each kind of GPSr and do our own comparing. Maybe do that sometime at an event.

At the WGA Picnic, I know we all flagged that one WPT. Just to yank chains, we put ours about 30 ft away, in a tree!! ROFLMBO

[Cache_boppin_BunnyFuFu]

See what I mean.. others seem to be able to get things approved without a problem. Hmmm??!!??!!

Guess the Approvers got it out for us ..

Oh well….such is life I guess. Can’t say I’ve ever had much of anything just HANDED to me. Except a Parking ticket once. LOL

Let me put it THIS way…it depends on the Approver. Digital Dan and myself have had some interesting issues with multi WPT caches we have placed, in that the Approver wanted to know each WPTs coords. The after reviewing we were told they were too close together on some. We could even prove on some other approved caches that their WPTs were not EVEN REMOTELY 0.10 apart. So…. we might be right but we might be wrong… depends on the Approver. I know for certain Dan had to re-adjust a number of WPTs, on one of his caches, before one Approver was happy. He darn near said the heck with it!!! I just make sure I ALWAYS go at least 528 ft between WPTs. But…..try it!! Can’t hurt!

Sounds like fun!

YEAH….. That too!!

[Cache_boppin_BunnyFuFu]

A very creative cache in deed. The regs state that all the Way Points of your multi should be a minimum of 0.10 miles (or 528 feet) apart from any other exisiting cache in the area. Therefore, make sure there isn’t any other close by. Otherwise, just follow the info on the placing of a cache. I aways make a note to the reviewer that I have checked distances, that it is located on public property and not near a RR track, if that issue comes up.

Good luck!!

$25 is an awesome price!!! That’s great you have 5 picked out to do too. I did the ones in the park, they are a lot of fun. We parked and took our bikes around to some. There are some fun ones around the area. Most are 1 – 2,5 on terrain so that makes it nice. I would avoid “Death’s Door” and “The caves of Door Bluffs Deadlands” as they are fairly rough, a 4 on terrain, to get to. Otherwise…have a lot of fun and let us know how you did!!

That’s cause Magellin is even more addicted to GeoCaching that the Ecorangers ROFLMBO

actually I think the most practical way to power a GPSr and save energy and be cost effective would be:
1. Use rechargeable batteries
2. But a solar charge and put it on
the dash of your car
I’ve been doing #1 for a long time, but have not spent the money on #2.

What is the average life of a rechargable?? It seems like after a while they just don’t hold much at all. Which theory is correct:

1. Wear the battery all the way down as to keep its memory extended, then charge it OR
2. Use it mostly up then toss it back in to be charged.

[Cache_boppin_BunnyFuFu]

I still like my solar powered & propeller/wind terbine beenie. Just charge as you walk!

Gotta agree with ya there CB&MB….. go with a Garmin user and run in circles. ROFLMBO

I’M JUST KIDDING GARMIN USERS……sheesh, just so darn sensative, they are

Whatever ya use and it get’s ya there….. USE IT!! Tried a devining rod once. Only found the caches with water in them! Using my GPSr, I toss my Bunny Ears on to get better reception. Not that I REALLY need it LOL
