ooops. Sorry for the quadruple post.
😀
Greetings from Kenosha, and welcome to the addiction.
Are you still here? You should be out planting your first cache!!! 😀
I second that. All in favor…
Congrats on the 1k milestone! Hope to meet you on the trails someday.
Do I really have to say it?
It’s your game, play it how you like.

I think it’s OK to log whichever you like for your Milestone. We paperless cache at ALL times, and don’t use a palm, so keeping track of which caches we did in a day is almost impossible. In fact, I’m not sure that a single one of our ‘official milestones’ are the actual ones we claimed. The main reason for this is because on a day of caching like today when we did around 10 caches, I came home to log them, and logged them not in the order we found them, but in the order we enjoyed them for the most part. Meaning, I log ones that were a lot of fun, or unique in some way before I log a pill bottle cache.
And, as I always say, we cannot take this game to seriously. Play the game the way you want to play it, not the way someone tells you to. The cache police are actually powerless, and there is no geo-jail. 😀
Just to clarify, we don’t tweak our coords to make a cache our Milestone. For instance, say were going for number 500 and we find 10 caches in that day. Chances are I’ll come home and log the milestone first before any of the others. So if you were to look at our stats, it would actually read that it was our 490th find, not 500th.
You all are more confused now huh? 😯 😀
No applause please, just throw money! 😀

MOGA hosts an annual geocaching event/competion, this year April 4-6 in Mark Twain state park in Missouri. Go here for more info: http://www.mogageo.com/joomla/
I am wondering if anyone else would like to go, and perhaps we can put together a Wisconsin team or teams? I know that the Minnesota Geocaching Association sends several teams each year, and perhaps it is time to join the fun?

Competitive geocaching is definitely not my thing.

Each cache page has the option of listing “Hunting” as an attribute. Common sense should tell you to stay away during the hunting season.
Very true. But I’ve noticed that people frequently do not read the cache pages before they go to a cache.
I’m with Team B Squared. I also disable my caches during rifle hunting season.
I have one at Bong State Park, and a few others that are near private property that have to be disabled this time of year. One is very near my home, but on city land. It borders real close to a guy that hunts in EVERY season on his property. We hear the gunshots daily. Definitely not worth the risk.
Tough terrain you say?
Match Head is in Racine, and has difficult terrain, and wonderful views. At this time of year, eaither bundle up, or wait for winds from the west. Many, many, many milestones have been achieved here. HOT TROT hit 1000 there yesterday.
