MemberSince you mentioed finding yourself in the middle of a parking lot, I thought I would mention NEMESIS #2 Not this park again! 😀
I think there is a “trend” here to be honest. Including myself, there are a lot of new cachers recently. Thanks you Vince Condella! New cachers means new ideas, means new problems, means FUN!!!!! )in my humble opinion!

MemberVery true on the skeeters, but we covered ourselves with lemon-eucalyptus first. The skeets were no match. The bad part was the “cave” full of spiders, but nothing a big long stick couldn’t handle. What kind of spider makes webs like those, I don’t know. They looked like mini- galactic nebulea.

MemberI currently have 5 nanno-caches in play. Folks have a love/hate relationship with them. Most love them! I get great feedback about 85% of the time. Some hate them and say they are not true caches. I think those people are entitled to thier oppinion but… 😈

😥 I agree with what the Major says, but ………
DeeJay mentions the cache actually states the coords are not correct, on purpose!
DeeJay mentions ONE specific cache where the owner states the coords are not correct on purpose…..what I’m asking is, where is this so called “trend”?
`CBAs I stated in my earlier post. This IS MY cache we are talking about here, called “NEMESIS #9 Playing Games (with your mind)” As you can clearly see by it’s title, it’s meant to be decieving. The coords are spot on, but the cache page reads that they purposly are not. This is part of the series. It is meant to be deceptive as you can see by the title of said cache. Cachers who have done this series, or any of my other 16 caches can tell you that the coords. are all spot on.
If you start the series with #9 first, I can see that you copuld get confused… and I hope so! It’s meant to be that way, hence the name “playing with your mind”
Whom ever it was that stated this area was 100′ x 100′ was wat off. I believe it’s more like 15′ x 15′. The cache reads “this will bring you to the center of the jungle gym but thats not where the cache is… or is it?” Well, that is where the cache is. I didn’t measure it exactly, however, it is within a foot or two of dead center of this area. So if you think about it, my staements on the cache page may seem misleading, but as usual, they are not, and will actually lead you right to the cache. This cache can be done without a GPS very easily, it was designed that way, as are ALL but one or two of the series. This series is about using your brain, without having to solve a puzzle. They are all quite simple to find once you get to know my style. Thats why theres only 10 in the series.
Anyway, enjoy my caches, and watch out for my next series if you think these were bad!!! 😈

A quick google search gave me on the first link this page:
http://boulter.com/gps/It’s pretty easy to use, just put your coords in as google shows them, both lat and lon seperated by a space and click Convert and Map.
SWEEET! Thats exactly what I was looking for. Thank you! Now why did that one not come up on my gooogle search I dunno?!?!?
TyeDyeSkyGuy
MemberYes, that is the correct cache.

MemberJust an FYI, they are not really good at replacing the cover when it gets scratched or damaged. I too bought one from the same place, and it did not fit correctly. It was about a mm to large. When I tried to remove it to trim it to the correct size myself, the corner stretched and tore a bit. The company would not only not replace it, they would not even respond to the 3 e-mail I sent them.

MemberI can’t imagine not reading the posts. I look forward to them every day.

MemberWashington Island is a must if you are looking for scenic views. You can catch sunrise and sunset over water in the same day. Just $10 per person round trip to ride the ferry.

MemberTo defend myself, and the admin Cheese Wis, the coords are exact. This is MY cache we are speaking of here. The coords are not off. If you are not familiar with my NEMESIS series of caches, you may not understand. There are 10 caches in this series, 9 published so far. They are all, for the most part, extremely challenging. One in fact posts 5-6 more times more DNF’s than finds. And after speaking to my fellow cachers at the recent Ice Cream on the Lake cache event, it seems most enjoy the new challenges over the humdrum “oh look there it is” you can see from 25 feet away. To the point. Yes, the cache description reads “The coords. on this one are purposely not exact.” But that is simply to throw off the uninitiated to the NEMESIS series. I pride myself on having exact coords, hell you need them to find most of my caches. I personally love having to look around to find others caches, as long as it does not destroy the nature around it. That is why I carefully pick and choose where these caches are placed, so that nature will not be disrupted by all the searching. This particular cache took me nearly 6 weeks to find the proper placement for. Anyway, I hope you all enjoy the series. Please don’t take caching so seriously… It’s meant to be fun! 😆
