  • in reply to: Easter Geocoin Bunny hits Jefferson cache #1872211

    I was in Jefferson and had to see if there was still an egg (in Emily’s II). Well, there was one. I really like Easter, and this made a nice little early birthday present.

    Thank you Easter Bunny!

    You’ll do just fine. You’ll adapt. I started geocaching in January 2004. I just find that every season has its benefits and problems. Just go with the flow. When winter comes again, you’ll be worried about finding caches in the snow!

    I’m going to copy this post to put in our community education committee section. Sounds like a good job for them, if no one else is interested!

    OK Bec. Right under the video there is a link that says save to favorites. if you put your mouse on that, and do a Right Click instead of a normal left click, you will get a window that pops up. Just click on save as, or save to download folder. That is it.

    When I do this — I can only save it as a web link. Was hoping for a separate file.

    This will work for youtube. You need to use firefox though.

    Just for downloading, or is this also for replaying? I don’t know that I will have access to Firefox at the location where I want to play the videos.

    This is something our brand new, now forming Community Education Committee would address. If you’re from Brown County and want to be involved — sign up!

    Did the older guy use the dreaded “buried” word?

    Let’s not forget my most favorite place in the world — Rock Island State Park. Getting to this park requires two ferry crossings (one car ferry, one passenger ferry) and it’s a no vehicles campground. Once you get on that passenger ferry you walk all your stuff to your spot.

    It’s close to backpack camping (like backpack camping lite) for the most part. Campsite are a comfortable walking distance (I think the most remote ones are less than a mile walk). Campsites are all quite nice, although obviously on the smaller side. Water and firewood are available (firewood was $20 a rick last year).

    The staff are all great — friendly and fun. There are all sorts of neat things scheduled (last year I had a great 1 on 1 tour of the wildflowers on the island with the naturalist). They are geocacher friendly too!

    There is lots to see on the little island. Lots of trails, with varied flora and fauna.

    Everytime I go, I just want to stay.

    in reply to: 2007 SPRING CAMPOUT! #1768723

    If you are tent camping, there will be spots available in the group sites that we have reserved (registration is not yet set up for this yet). But if you’re wanting your own site or are using a camper, you will have to go through Reserve America to find the perfect spot.

    I’ve only tented in the group sites, so I’m not sure what sites are best. I know that the showers in the family site are nice and centrally located though.

    Someone will pipe up with recommendations, I’m sure.

    in reply to: 2008 campout #1770566

    Typically, the date of the campout is the 3rd weekend of May. However, it depends on group site availability. It has been held on the second weekend at least once to my recollection.

    Hope that helps some!

    Press find>find[recent finds]>select waypoint>goto>offroad
    Then quit>quit, which takes you to the arrow screen.

    When I got my 60CS I had to play around with it a bunch through the set up menus, but this is what I use. It would be really nice if it would automatically switch over, but that’s probably asking too much.
