Yeah, I think they’re dependent on what they get from the wherigo folks on that.
On the Left Side of the Road...I wish the wherigo player would be updated to something that doesn’t freeze.

How can a GPS get a satellite lock indoors?
The GPSr only has to be “integral to the hunt,” it doesn’t say you have to be able to use it at GZ.
On the Left Side of the Road...I am not aware of a bookmark list. We have found two indoor caches but it would be a bit of a spoiler to post GC#s of either.

On the Left Side of the Road...Out of all the unsportsmanlike behavior that goes on in this game, this (armchair logging) is the one that is most baffling to me…completely pointless.
On the Left Side of the Road...Well then apparently all is A-Ok. I think it would be interesting if bonus points could be offered at the game admin’s discretion for caches or rescues that were unfound or unaddressed for longer than 3 years. There aren’t that many of them but there are a few.
On the Left Side of the Road...We had three cachers out today doing quite a bit of snowshoeing using shoes that are “Yukon Charlie” Fleet Farm specials but in all honesty look like twins to the Cabela’s at about 1/2 the price. Maybe there’s a difference in quality somewhere but at least they look very similar. So if you haven’t bought the Cabelas already, I would say at least take a look at Fleet Farm, Dunhams, Dicks, wherever.
They all worked fine as they usually do. I recommend poles. We had one person using 2 poles, one using one pole (me–one of my poles never recovered from the arduous trek out to the leg-killing SSSSeconds last year), and one using no poles, based on personal preference. I do think poles (well, “pole”) is very handy for stability, hill climbing, and getting your tukkus up when you fall down, which you will do sooner or later, especially if go off trail.
On the Left Side of the Road...e-mailed Christmas…sorry, “Holiday” cards from various businesses. “Here’s my heartfelt wishes blasted to everyone in my distribution list.”

I follow Marc!
I always had a weird feeling I was being followed…..
You’re not paranoid, everyone IS out to get you 😯

Besides using GSAK’s “corrected coordinates”, I quite often put the solve in User Notes (Right click on line, then select Add/Change/Delete Note). This is quite helpful when I have a partial solve and will be coming back to the puzzle some time in the future.
Ooooh…that’s an excellent idea.

GSAK has a corrected coordinates field. You can enter the actual coordinates for a puzzle cache , and it will generate a nice yellow triangle to tell you it’s been done.
Ja dat’s what I said.
On the Left Side of the Road...I use GSAK and amend the posted coordinates. This way when I load them into the Oregon the icons show in the right locations. This is helpful because you cannot change the coordinates of a geocache in the Oregon (you have to set a new waypoint instead, but the original stays in the dummy location). The only danger is that you mix up solved and unsolved puzzles in your upload but it’s pretty obvious from the screen when a ? icon is at dummy coordinates versus actual.
