... site - GC1GCB2 - NYC Alpha Jr. Very cool idea, and they managed to hide an ammo can - the largest cache on Manhattan! Definitely worth a visit for those interested in NYC's geocaching history.

... container, tried to coordinate long-distance maintenance with the cache owner but it didn't work out. About a month later NYA posted one of those "I noticed that this cache has been temporarily disabled for a period of time well in excess of..." notices, and the CO quickly archived ...

Wanted to let folks know about an event in NYC on April 30th called DASH. It's not specifically geocaching-related, but for those who like geo-puzzles I think it will be a lot of fun. And I think there will be a fair number of nearby geocachers in attendance... It's a puzzle hunt taking ...

Thanks for the insight addy. I definitely think if I'm outside of the major cities, it would help A LOT to have the topo information as I have had those instances where I know a cache is just over yonder to discover it's across a gorge! As the years go on and I eventually start getting out of the ...

Any updates on the coins being shipped to those who ordered them? Last I heard they were to be shipped from the minter on May 11th and then to us thereafter. I know it has only been 2 weeks but just wondering before I forget!

Thanks.

... a lot - thanks! I have occasionally downloaded the kml files when I want to produce a quick overview map for a caching run - and I thought those placement looked funny. But... I have been manually entering the Long/Lat into my Google Earth Pro (cut and paste) and that seems to replicate ...

...I still think the real winners are those of us who get to pursue and log your world-class caches!!
THANK YOU!





...and keep 'em coming (please)

... Frankly I don't see how the hider can "find" something (unless they're like me who sometimes forgets where I put things ... where ARE those keys?); and if I was asked to beta a cache I would sign the log but recuse myself from the FTF designation Since GC does not have a definition ...

There are some that i have absolutely no idea of where to start. One of my favorite type of puzzles are those that don't tell you what the puzzle is about - you have to figure that out AND then you have to solve it. The puzzles in your list fall within that category. Don't ...

... because a gps will not work underground. I have been on a couple of caches with an underground element ... But as to the other comments ... well those are kinda hard to get past. But it sounds like they had their mind made up.

... I would definitely falter at the nano log roll ... I'm out there FOREVER trying to get those back in!!

For those unwilling or unable to drive 3 hours to Albany, there is a closer event - LIGO's . Al always, fun, food, and geocaching are on the menu.

... providing DeLorme maps for each state and have just started adding some new "Codebreaking" features that will be a great resource for those pesky encrypted mystery caches. Brainzane (Cameron)

I am still working on a plan to hide a 5 gallon spackle bucket in Manhattan. I want to get it sponsored by Kid Robot and have it filled with those cool japanese style toys. That one will be good for kids, and adults too, if I can figure it out. OOH, well remember, the reviewers are now the making ...

... my attempts have ended in DNF's for both Who Ya Gonna Call and Where's MJ... but I'm not complaining. A challenge is good) Not only is it fun for those who live local, but also a great way for an out-of-towner to geocache and get to know the city. I know I always preferred exploring a new city ...
