Thanks, Dave! That link really helps clear things up.
But it brings up another question. I would like to contact the cache reviewer for this area to see what is the best way to proceed (forced adoption vs. archival and new placement). How do I determine who the reviewer is for this area (Waupaca County) or can I contact any of them? Is there a list of the reviewers on this site?
I will take care of that when I get back to work on Monday. Hope that is soon enough!

A PDF would work… but if you could somehow convert it into an image file (GIF or JPEG) this would be even better. Resolution of the image file doesn’t have to be too high either. A width of 600 or 800 pixels would be OK…
Can I print and then scan it or would the resolution not be clear enough?

Would a Puzzle cache working session/ meet & greet some early weekday evening work for an idea with multi purpose. I ask becasue I KNOW I won’t please everyone here with the date I am choosing, so I was thinking of having a moving event of sorts.
I would LOVE to attend something like this, but it would be impossible on a weekday evening. How about a weekend? Spend a lot of time in the CW area (grew up in Amherst/Waupaca) and would love to see the sport grow up there.
The “eet and greet” is also a wonderful idea. We could plan something in conjunction with the Iola Car Show….if anyone is into vintage metal and heat stroke. 8)
I might have a Wisconsin map that would work. What format do you need it in? Currently it is in MicroStation (CAD) but I can export it to AutoCAD (dwg or dxf) or print it to a PDF.
Thanks for the help. Turns out it WAS my firewall (ZoneAlarm) that was flagging my zip file and turning it into a .ZM9 file. However, it was also corrupting the header which didn’t let me open the file, even when I cleared it through the MailSafe report. I did get it to work when I disabled the incoming MailSafe scan and then it came through as an honest to goodness ZIP file.
Yeah! Now I just need to figure out what to DO with the GPX files once I get them. 😀 I have GSAK but seem to screw it up every time I try to download the caches. Is there a better (read: more user friendly) program out there?
I agree! The coded map of Wisconsin would be great! I know nothing about programming though….is that kind of thing a pain in the butt?
So no one else is having this problem? I will try gc forums and see if that turns something up….. Thanks!

We happened to be in CF for another purpose and ran across a couple cachers while finishing the Leinie’s tour. Being the responsible cacher that I am, I knew there wasn’t a listed cache that close to the brewery so I had to ask what was going on. That was the FIRST time I had heard about the event. Had I known about it earlier I would have been an eager participant, but alas I will have to wait for the next event. I LOVE THIS IDEA and would drive a long ways to come to something like this. Thanks for all the hard work and I hope that this event is done again soon.

Don’t worry…I solved all 38 puzzles yesterday (in about 4 hours) but had trouble with a couple of them so am way back in the standings. 8) I am having a blast! This kind of thing is right up my alley….
Rats! I missed this! I didn’t even know it was going on, but I was in Appleton that day. Are you ever going to have another one? I am really interested in going paperless, but not quite techno savvy enough to figure it out on my own. Thanks Marc!
BTW, I am having a blast doing your cemetary caches whenever I get the chance.

After seeing this topic on here yesterday, I decided to check out the “game” and now I am hooked. I was up until 12:30 last night solving puzzles and am thirsty for more. Who else is playing?
