Imagine my surprise as I’m checking out the forums to see my name. Rogheff is a Troop of Boy Scouts stationed out of Kenosha. We have many caches hidden by several of the Scouts and myself. We have a web page devoted to our cache descriptions and hints http://www.rogheffgecaching.com

What a wonderful sport, it’s great exercise, teaches my Scouts GPS and orienteering skills, gives us a great excuse to go on a 5 mile hike and gets us away from electronic devices like gameboys. We geocache on all campouts and I personally love coming up with strange, odd and unusual hides and containers.

By the way, almost everyone I’ve encountered geocaching have been wonderful people too.

When in Kenosha, Northern Illinois, Northern Minnesota or Louisianna, look up our hides.

We stopped at Shelter 2 on our way to FLorida yesterday. Came up empty – what a surprise. did find the red herring though, that’s a good accomplishment at this cache. the #2 is a regular street-type sign, nothing special. The shelter is a very simple shelter, but is really quie large with lots of little nooks and crannies.

The picnic tables are all bolted down, so you have many, many more hiding spots to look. There’s also hundreds of exposed bolts that could be fake. we spent about an hour and a half there with 5 people checking all the possibilities and theories that we formulated.

It’s really an remarkable hide in an unremarkable shelter in a nice little park. It looks a lot easier than it is! Venture down there and try it!!!

What a good idea.

I helped a TB to it’s final destination just yesterday.

I’ll be going to the Tampa and New Orleans area over Christmas.

Who better to help teach Scouts about geocaching than Scouts who geocache. I’ll try to get some of my boys there.
