Shalom: Till We Meet Again

We will be wishing all of these to Jen (MontaukJen) and Kurt (VWKurt) before they move south to Florida.

... to find my caches. We talked about our geocaching adventures and and shared info that will be helpful in the future. Interesting, eh? having these two firsts happen nearly at the same time. Incidentally, he was going out to find the cache I had just found.

... area) in the fastest time? I guess using a digital camera to show pics of each hide would determine if each runner found all the designated hides? These hides/caches would only be put out for the event and removed afterwards. The geographical area would only be announced a day before the event ...

... a nap, buy a purse, etc. It's New York City, I get it, there are lots of businesses nearby. I have not figured out an effective way to get rid of these icons without, at the same time, getting rid of the geocache waypoints I've loaded and am trying to track down. It's killing me. I have monkeyed ...

... to ensure those searching the cache it was placed with permission and there are no legal issues. I am temporarily disabling your cache page until these issues are cleared up. After all issues have been addressed feel free to enable your cache. If you chose not to respond the cache may be archived ...

... from New York Admin a few weeks ago, (s)he has been helpful regarding an ambitious Central Park multi I am planning.) Positive relationships like these are part of why I place a high value on staying on the good side of the authorities.

... scary writing all over the outside, and now (apparently) someone has used one to make a bomb. If I were the NYC authorities and I found one of these planted in an urban area, I'd probably be a little freaked out. And after the hullaballu over the Cartoon Network marketing stunt last year (arrests, ...

... task completion than puzzle solving (plugging numbers into an equation isn't much of a puzzle for me). Obviously the lines are a little blurry and these types of caches share characteristics with both listing types. I also may be more likely to reference the cache page before searching for a cache ...

... active "real" (non-virtual) cache on Manhattan is another CN cache, 4quA5 GC12AF. Oldest in the Bronx is (again, I think, not 100% on these) Vanny Cache GC1382. I ripped my best jeans hunting that one and am still ticked of at myself about it. Forgetting GC30E, Brooklyn has Bergen ...

... Network advertising signs under Boston bridges were arrested afterwards as well, although I believe they also avoided jail. The point isn't that these are sensible responses, or that the story are true parallel with anything that has happened in NYC geocaching. I am in complete agreement that ...

... I wasn't lucky enough to stumble across it myself, but it still cracks me up. I've mailed it to a number of my non-geocaching friends. It spans these four photos: http://img.geocaching.com/cache/log/3f6024e7-8e40-48ff-b074-eccef2971374.jpg http://img.geocaching.com/cache/log/631743c7-ab84-4ce5-bd9c-707599f51954.jpg ...

... within your power to avoid other caches, and you still run a good chance of bumping into a problem. I think the frustrations arise from how these conflicts are handled... These days if you publish too close to someone else's hidden stage you'll mostly get a simple proximity rejection without ...

... even if you're only going out there to remove your cache entirely. Regardless, I feel like it is part of living in a cache saturated area to have these problems. It's like complaining that you don't have any more room in your wallet for all the money... what a great problem to have! Yeah, that's ...

... event cache , which typically lasts no more than 15 minutes. They encouraged copycat events around the geocaching community at the same time, and these proved to be popular - we even had our own , which Tatanka credited to Metro NY GC even though he did all the work himself. Anyway, with the new ...

I'm noticing these days that when there is a problem with a cache and groundspeak guidelines, NY Admin seems to be going a step beyond archiving and is retracting it or otherwise eliminating it from geocaching.com entirely. A few ...
