We are glad to hear June is doing better and pray for a speedy recovery. It is stuff like this we pay more attention to after Tim fell 20 feet out of a tree last year at Cache Ba$h.
We will be arriving Thursday and staying until Saturday night. We booked our hotel last year.
Where is the option for both? We like being outdoors but we are both big time geeks.
Yeah, the little buggers never go away. They are about a month late this year though. We usually start finding them in mid March.
This is very sad news indeed. We knew Dave personally and he will be greatly missed.
Congratulations! Impressive milestone and cache.
Illinois for us, only because I used to work in the Chicagoland area.
Good luck and keep us posted.
I have used these on just about all of my coins. Just had one logged yesterday that had been missing for almost 2 years.
To put my two cents in on Trekkin and Birdin’s original question, Yes I do think that the Delorme challenges have faded a bit in popularity. In Wisconsin at least one cause could be the fact we have two different challenges going for two different editions. The other cause could be the high gas prices we have had to deal with the last few years. Also, as others have pointed out, there seems to be a numbers race fetish with some people.
Upto last week I had thought the original Wisconsin Challenge had been archived because of Part Deux. I would think they could have been combined so that you could use either. Once we get one Wisconsin Delorme challenge done we will not be pursuing the other. The County Challenge ,yes.
We have been working on the original Delorme challenge and hope it does not get archived.
The thing that irks me about Part Deux is that finds before that challenge was created do not count. I have no problem working off either version of the Delorme atlas, but I think any legitimate find should count.
On another note, GSAK users should know that there is a Delorme Challenge Macro that will allow to keep track of multiple challenges including the original Wisconsin one. Plus as an added bonus you can map them out on Google Earth.
Hopefully someone will adopt the remaining 10. This is too good of a series not to.
Thank you John and Gail and everyone else. It would not have been possible without your caches. We have a few new hides in the works to be placed later this summer including one that celebrates #1000.
Thanks. I was clicking on change info and nothing was coming up. Works now.
I like the real Lock n Lock containers over the cheapies.
They seem to hold up much better.
I have also started using them in my kitchen for storage, so it makes me mad that the stores around me stopped carrying them.(Walmart, Kmart, Ace) -
