      Alan, You were just in time. I was starting to go through withdrawal. I even made a post or two on that other page.

        Good catch, G&S. We somehow missed this. If it hadn’t been your post, the kudos might not have been forthcoming.

        I am sure Mr&Mrs Traker know we wouldn’t fail to acknowledge this achievement. Congratulations B&S.

          Sorry to see this G&S. Our favorite photo of you two was in it.

            Good Catch, Jeff!
            I hadn’t noticed the number roll over.
            Now, have you found them all yet?

                There are two schools of thought here.
                1. You can’t take too much.
                2. Your taking too much.

                Personally, I am ambivalent. Pack every thing you can think of and then leave the pack in the car. Carry only the GPS and a compass with you on the trail. Sometimes I carry my flashlight or cell phone, just to have something to lose on the trail.
                Opinions vary on this subject. Here is what is known as a Markwell:

                Named for Kelly Markwell, a Chicago geocacher we all know and love.

                  If we come bach for a second visit, can we log a second find?

                  BTW Mr Tie, I haven’t seen your log at our Diamond in the Rough.

                    If you have a weekend, do them all there are 15 caches within 5 miles of downtown EC. Than you can tell us which is best.

                    I might suggest sending an e-mail note to Bobcatw98. He is from the area, and I believe he has done all 15.

                      Great idea!
                      One of our public libraries may be interested in such a collection.

                          Been there. You’ll need the 2 hours for traffic. I havn’t done any caches there. Have fun!

                            Recently, we have seen some confusion due to a change in the definition of membership. Many of our registered users are still guided by our previous definition of member to believe that they are members of the WGA. If there is some confusion in your mind, please check the list of WGA members to see if your name is listed. If not, please sign-up, it doesn’t cost anything.

                                  Dave I took a look at some of your NF’s. I think I can offer the following without spoiling them.

                                  Indiana – as you approach L/L zero, check for cache habitate to your left [north].

                                  Missouri – when you are in the giant rubarb, check for cache habitat to the south.

                                  Grape Tangle – Hunt in winter, approach from the north. Very dense bush and poison ivy.

                                  California – Enter from the Parkway. If you can see a parking lot, you are in the wrong place. Besides, it’s private property. As you reach L/L zero look for cache habitat 50-75 feet in front of you [down hill] just off trail.
