      Our least favorite caches are micros/nanos where there could be a larger cache in the same location. nanos in the woods would be our least favorite

        when we used our T|X we used cachemate

        http://www.smittyware.com/palm/cachemate/

        its a $8 program and worked well for us.

        used it with GSAK to output a file for the PDA and then sync and done

          Congrats on the Challenge find. It took us a couple of years to find them all.

            maybe all the packer reports were covering them up

                Even the northwoods have power trails:

                TC54915 has hidden some great caches along the Ed’s Lake trail out of Wabeno, WI Look up this cache at the start GC1X5D0 There are 15 there.

                Also has placed many along the NST Trail: a 32 mile long section of ATV, hiking , biking, equestrian trail in Forest County. So Far there are 36 along the trail,

                Went out today in the rain and did 8 of the 10 new ones about 12.5 miles on my bike was great, except for the rain,

                Caches are not hidden every .1 but either on ATV or bike or walking, its a nice area for caching. Caches start here at the south GC1X15R and end here in the north GC2B6KP

                About a month ago Val and I did the Glacial Drummond and part of the Bugline. With Val being in a wheelchair parttime, power trails like these are great areas for us to cache together. The long walks in the woods are out. (unless there is a forest road or snowmobile trail that we can get the truck down) and close to the cache. but that takes some of what the cache owner wanted you to enjoy in the first place. Either on the ATV or walking with her in the wheelchair, it makes caching more of a sport we can enjoy together, keep hiding the “power trails”

                I think there should be a link or area here on the WGA website where these are listed as power trails are a lot more fun then getting all the 1/1 caches in Walmart parking lots.

                  looks like a challenge cache, we only have found 2 on the list, but after MWGB will be heading towards some of them.

                    Val and I did the Glacial Drumond, and it was a very nice and peaceful walk, around 24 caches and it took us approx 4 hours to walk the 8 miles or so.

                    The same day we went to sussex area and did another 10-12 on the bugline.

                    We wish we would have spent more time on the bugline, more rustic of a walk. we will be hitting more on the bugline, the next time we head to Brew Town.

                      purchased it off of ebay, and can easily be adjusted for any vehicle and removed quickly if you purcase a quick coupler, its basically black pipe from the hardware store with the lexan top. but you get many pieces of pipe and couplers with the kit. and a nice flexible cover to make it look nice.

                      here is a link to a current buy it now auction

                          IMO I think we should just get rid of it. It’s a southern Wisconsin popularity contest.

                            The ticks are still in the north-woods and around like a vengeance we cached in the areas of Antigo, Rhinelnader, Tomahawk, and Merrill

                            Pulled about 50 or so just off me.
