Congrats on the 2000 finds!

Oh yeah..don’t forget about the cache pages themselves.
Some say “Bison Tube. BYOP.”
That’s it.
That certainly deserves a TFTC.
Point taken, Todd300. Written out, that log would be longer than the cache write-up.

Dare I say it – Ok here it goes.
A majority of cachers never read the description and have no clue why the cache is there. They just want to get the smiley.I don’t know if it’s a majority of cachers, CJ, but there are certainly quite a few. Then there are those who complain in their logs (if they write anything) about the cache when they couldn’t find it or had trouble with it in some way or didn’t know they had to do such-and-such, and the information they needed was right in front of them… DID YOU READ THE CACHE PAGE??? 🙄
I ran across this notice on a cache page today while I was researching caches to do on an upcoming trip out west.
The cache (an EarthCache) is GC2MPGY by Eagle1977 in eastern Wyoming:******* A CACHING SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT *******
As all cache hiders know and understand, the only treasure we get from placing a cache is from the logs of our cache finders. Tales of struggle, attributes, or even problems with the location or cache itself are elements that help us hide better, maintain faster, and ensure that the next finder has a better seeking adventure. So give your area cachers a few words of encouragement, reprimand, or help when logging. We all appreciate it.:bump:
DUE DATE, DUE DATE, DUE DATE!!!

Well Chris, I’m not sure some of yours can be solved any other way than by the headbanging approach, right???? :blink:

Has anyone else run into problems getting the xzing site to come up? I keep getting one of those “cannot find” screens and the cached pages don’t work. I have one of these that the online reader just can’t decode. Thanks!
It’s not coming up for me right now, Gwyn.
Hey, I’m thinking that Team Black-Cat was our “first” also! We ended up climbing on snowbanks with them and GMO to hunt nanos. Those Cats are everywhere!
We might be just a bit out of your range, but all six of our letterbox hybrid caches can be found GPS-less, although at some point in each, a receiver might come in handy, but your particular skills should exceed this need.
Two LBHs are in Roche-A-Cri State Park (not far off Highway 21) and the three LBH WSQs are close to the Highway 21 corridor. Our pirates LBH is in NE Adams County, not far from I39 and Highway 73.
Here’s a link to the specific part of our profile dealing with our LBH hides: http://www.geocaching.com/seek/nearest.aspx?tx=4bdd8fb2-d7bc-453f-a9c5-968563b15d24&u=sandlanders
We couldn’t solve a QR puzzle until we found an online decoder site. Now it’s easy. We have only found WhereIGo caches when in the company of equipped caching friends. We have not found a Chirp cache.
We have completed countless ALR caches that required taking photos.
We have a dumb phone and a dumb receiver.

I would suggest that all parties cease with the name calling, step back, take deep breaths, and tell themselves, “This is just a game. This is just a game. This is just a game.”
Enjoy the fun, everyone! I’ll take a rain check on the Cat’s boat ride.
Cool. I’ll just pretend that I’ve been up all night since the sun will not yet be over the yardarm.
What kind of morning pastries go with mai tais? And will this be one of those infamous “three-hour tours”?
Can we come and sip mai tais off the fantail with the Cat whilst someone else signs our name to any and all log sheets?
