    It seems that some people are complaining a GPS isn’t needed to find it so it shouldn’t be logged as a “find”.

    You don’t need a GPS to find a LetterBox Hybrid Cache either…

    Without even looking at the translation I believe that is “How much wood can a woodchuck chuck…”

    Congrats, Miata!

    Keep on chuckin’

    Family caching… Where to start?

    3 and 6 are on the young side to have any lasting interest in looking for the cache. Heck, half the time the only reason my girls come along with me is that they know I’ll get them some fries or something if they don’t whine the whole time! They are fun to take along though and are really starting to get into the hunt more.
    – Find caches that are 1/1 or 2/2 at most.
    – Find caches that are located in parks with playground equipment and “reward” them with some time on the swings after finding the cache. This will help break up the day.
    – Skip Micros
    – Don’t plan on finding alot of caches.
    – #1 Complaint this time of year is cold toes and fingers. Bring hand warmers.
    – Let them hold the GPS on the way back to the car. Show them how to make the mph numbers go up by running with it. This works well on longer hikes back and forth.
    – Hiking sticks. Don’t leave home without ’em. or find one for each and take them with you from cache to cache.
    – Bring snacks.
    – Find an area with high cache density to reduce the amount of time in the car between caches. Especially since you may not visit many of the caches in that area.

    As they get older you can get them more involved and interested in the hunt itself and all that goes into finding the cache. Enjoy! I also look forward to seeing other folks’ ideas in this area!

    According to this page we should have plenty of room on 2 campsites accomodating 80-100 cachers each at Lake Wissota State Park.

    There are also 2 reservable shelters nearby for the Saturday daytime activities and another shelter near the group sites that would serve our purposes quite well (cough)pancake (cough)(cough) breakfast (cough)(ahem).

    All this can be seen here on this map.

    Funny you mentioned Lake Wissota…
    As I started looking a bit more, that one popped into my mind as well. I’ve been there and it is truly a beautiful park. And certainly big enough!

    Make that two votes for Lake Wissota.

    Realistically, we need to have it in a park that within driving distance to the greatest amount of members.

    Alternatively, we could hold it at a park that is equally a pain in the a$$ for all members to get to. Anything available in Big Bay State Park?

    Wow, That one’s more complete than the one I was using! Although an online Latin Dictionary and 3 years of Latin in HS didn’t hurt any.
