    Okay…This is very important!!!

    I was going to create a separate post for this but since you were so kind to list some of the attractions in the area…
    is there a movie theater nearby??

    You all do realize that this is opening weekend of the last Star Wars movie don’t you??

    I was nearly ready to cancel our trip up there…still thinking about it!!!

    Riverbender does have trails to most of the points, but they are either narrow dirt walking trails or man made wood trails. There are alot of uneven spots on the wood trails so a stroller’s wheels probably would get caught alot. Also, parts of the dirt trails are very narrow and full of roots. It’s a beautiful park and both waypoints aren’t too far off those trails (but some bushwhacking is involved for the second point), but it may be difficult for a 2 yr old in a stroller.

    Suggested it here.

    Once again we will stay status quo.

    Definition of insanity: doing things the same way over and over and expecting diferent results.

    Our thoughts are with his family.

    in reply to: Wausau Area Caches #1748939

    A little over a year ago we camped in the Wausau area with some friends who were newbies. We spent all day that Saturday caching in the Wausau/Stevens Point (even took a jaunt to the Point Brewery) area. Looking back at our finds, this is what I suggest:

    GCB093 — The Forgotten War — neat virtual
    GCFDB7 — Iverson Park Wet Foot 1 and 2 — this is the nice long walk in a nice park on mostly trails near a river
    GC96CD — Hobo Cache — This was a really nice walk on trails that had historical signs throughout that really taught some great history (found this one after the May 04 geo-campout)

    We also found Whiting Park and Echo Dells Cache. Both were fairly traditional, but in nice areas and great if you just want a nice walk.

    Since we haven’t been there in a while, not sure of the current maintenance, but people still are finding them recently.

    Have fun!

    in reply to: Cheeseheads now 25% more likely to find caches #1737852

    On another note … It’s fine to leave behind a “Memorial Cache” from an event (when property managers will allow it), but I still don’t like the idea of a permant cache having hundreds of event logs listed on it; as it looks odd going forward in the future, as others find the cache after the event is history. If I’m seeking a regular cache, I hope to find log entries/comments that deal with the cache I will be finding, not some long gone event.


    I could not agree more!!

    We often use the history to tell us about the area and the cache…having 100’s of logs that have nothing to do with the “memorial cache” would be confusing.

    Another 2 cent.

    in reply to: Temp Caches and the Camp-out #1744266

    The second cache is ONLY for Temps!!

    Permanent ones are to be logged on their own page. Note the links that are set up to the permanent cache pages.

    in reply to: JJJTBA hits the 200 mark. #1756967

    Congrats! You’re really making your mark…racking up hundreds of finds in just a short time & recently placing some creative and very difficult caches! Keep ’em coming.

    in reply to: Bingo pieces #1748602

    That would be a great idea!!

    Thanks for helping out!

    in reply to: Bingo pieces #1748600

    For a cache that no longer exists…”And Bingo is the Namo” GCHR67.

    It was a great cache but was in an area that got VERY wet!!

    Oh, Dave, Dave, Dave, Dave! You do have such difficulty with our caches! I guess you just need to have your 5-year-old with you to show you just how easy caching is!
