Yes, thank you to Mr Greenthumb, Sunshine, and Opps5. I saw them Sunday morning, planning to enjoy the water passes at the swim pool at Regner Park, and I think they had a lot of fun in our state this past weekend.

Do you have the LONG hikes marked somewhere for us crippled people? I think I’ll take the cane as well as the walker, but I don’t know how I’ll do on long hikes. 😥
Yes, there are some LONG (but beautiful) hikes. 😈
They won’t be specifically marked that way in the programs. Just the basic Terrain/Difficulty will be noted. If you have time to read the cache pages beforehand, it would probably be there (at least on mine). Otherwise, come find me Friday night (I’ll be in or around the Courthouse all evening) or Saturday morning at Regner (I’ll be at the creative cache turn-in station), and I’ll let you know which ones are the LONG ones.

I remember hearing from someone that some of the caches might be in the Kettle Morraine area. Are any of the caches hidden on DNR land where a State Parks admission sticker is required?
Okay, looks like State Park Stickers are NOT required for the 50 caches if you use the parking coordinates that we provide.

Please also check on county park sticker needs as well as I see several county parks in the area…not sure if those are fee entry based or not…of if any of the new caches will show up there anyway.
County parks do not have a fee. 8)
If I remember, and if I have time, I’ll change all the cache placement dates to the 14th on Friday morning. Unfortunately, it won’t let me pre-date them right now.
As for the release time…. it depends on our wonderful Wisconsin reviewers and what works best for him/her.
I’m still checking into the State Park Sticker question about the 50 caches. I’m asking the other cache hiders since I don’t really have knowledge of their caches. A couple of the 4 night caches are in the State Forest and the parking lots technically require a sticker.
Used teal ’93 Plymouth Colt Vista… Unique little car…
I was forced to buy a car in college after “killing” my parents car by somehow blowing out the timing belt or some thingamabob by “allegedly” forgetting to check/add oil. I still claim that there must have been a big leak and all the oil dripped out as I was driving that day. To LaCrosse. From where they had to drive 3&1/2 hours to come get me when the car suddenly died in the middle of the road. Oops. 😳 Other people in the family used the car. Why didn’t THEY check the oil? 🙄
Awesome!! I’m still workin’ on mine… only a dozen squares to go… 🙄

You also forget the other end, NONE. That’s how many I intend to find. I have a hard enough time being social with 5 people, much less 500. Doesn’t sound like my idea of a good time, but that’s just me. Put me down for none, in any case.
Ditto.
That’s cool too… Perhaps you’d like to help out the WGA by training newbies at the morning class or flipping pancakes Sunday morning? 😀

I am pretty sure I will be there at some point that weekend. If there are other LCG players going to the Bash and want to join me in a team effort find on this “CHALLENGE” just let me know in a pm.
Allow 3 hours (an hour per stage) although it may not take you that long, depending on conditions.
Wow… where to even begin? Hmmm..
PU What a Stinker! (GC17PV2) This cache is becoming a West Bend “MUST DO” … despite how stinkin’ awful it is. 😉
Shipwrecked on Fantasy Island (GCVP2P) Simple cache with fun theme.
Rainbow Raindrop Series in Glacier Blue Hills Rec Area (6 micro caches plus a final). Doing the whole thing at once can be quite a workout but possible. Here’s one of the drops: (GCJDZP)
Super Sized! Won Cache of the Month Apr 2005; Just a fun one. (GCND98)
Pure Evil – A tough one near Super Sized. (GCPB6J)It’s all About the Trees (GC1GCE3) Unique hide.
You Dirty Rat! Series (GCTW6Y) 5 caches that should be quick, but might not be… Takes you on nice walk on the bike trail. Easy terrain.
Pretty View by Princess (GCNT30) Awesome view of Kettle Moraine after a nice hike on the Ice Age Trail.
Lord of the Caches Trilogy (Jackson swamp) (GC7DA) – Placed Apr 2001. One of the best multis in the area. It takes time, however (as in hours).
And many, many more….
Congrats! You’re gonna pass me up sooner than I thought!
There were also some great 2008 Ba$h photos taken with a disposable camera in a couple caches. I posted them on each cache page:

Definitely getting excited for the event! Thank you to everyone for the work that you put into it. Just one quick question:
The “water” caches – are those in addition to the fifty caches places or are those part of the fifty?
The water caches are BONUS caches, in addition to the 50 caches. 😀
Congrats!
I agree, Door County Challenge (GCGE6B) is a must-do. All 4 stages. I was proud of myself for getting to the 4th stage, especially alone. Great terrain challenge. Great scenery.
And GC4C4 Door County Cache- Oldest in the county. Just because.
I also really liked I Have Seen The Light (GCH485) because I love lighthouses. It also has a little museum.
I think I remember liking Finder’s Find (GCV0ZY), because it was a nice longer walk and you’re rewarded with an ammo can. Actually, I remember liking ALL of Door County’s caches. I don’t think you can go wrong.
