... be dropped, a protective plastic window for the screen that still allows touch screen inputs, and can be attached with a strap to your arm or leg while you hike. - Logging from the field is cool, should you want to do that. As much better as the browser is on an iPhone compared with my Treo, I'm ...

This cache was laid up for a while due to CPC reconstruction work in the area, but the best container / camo on the island is back. If you haven't found it yet, it's worth a visit. A member of the Triple Crown for the container / camo category: ...

... give it another try. There were two 1-gallon jugs hidden near by. There were 4 holes drilled in the pipe. You had to get water, fill up the pipe while your team plugged the holes (maybe chewing gum or duct tape would have done as well) and the cache container then floated to the top. GENIUS! ...

... caches (the kind that require you to complete a particular matrix of cache types before you can attempt the final). It's pretty nice, and while I was poking around this morning I was surprised to discover that the site is run by our own Brainzane and Yossface! Pretty cool. Go check it ...

Question. How do you feel about graveyard / cemetery caches? I get the sense that some folks in geo-world love them, while others find them a bit on the disrespectful side. Does it make a difference if there is no physical container (i.e., a virtual waypoint or a question to answer ...

... get too bent out of shape if other people keep score differently. If someone wants to let his youngest Munchkin sign the log at his kitchen table while preparing the cache and claim it as an FTF, what's it to me?

... think it's a fair and sporting thing to do. (I've even gone so far as emailing other cachers after being STF on a cache which is taking the FTF a while to log online - since I like to wait for the FTF to post first, other hounds don't have any other way of knowing that the FTF is no longer in ...

It took me a while to collect these - I can only imagine how long it has taken ElToro to place and maintain them!

Be careful punching waypoints into your 60csx while driving in Jersey!

... Find Me, etc.). My best guess is that the account is controlled by a production assistant or other some such person who found some caches a while back, and they got the idea for a promotion and converted the account (with groundspeak's permission) into an advertising account. I don't really ...

So while in Texas I dropped my 60CSx as I was getting out of the car, and it fell two or three feet to the pavement. I've done something similar a bunch of times before, but this time my little unit wasn't able to shrug it ...

... but I think it shows a bit of the bias that groundspeak has in terms of GPSr use. I've seen a number of references in the forums to the fact that while TPTB don't actually require a GPSr for *finding* a cache, they still require one for *hiding* a cache. I've never been sure about how that would ...

... the last year or two, since mostly the same places are in our travel rotation. Somehow I didn't grab a cache when I visited my brother in Alaska a while back... That was pretty dumb.

... (although well after the Mammut contest ended). I use the past tense because although the ciste's listing is still active, I searched for it for a while earlier this summer and came up empty. http://basecamp.mammut.ch/de/shoe-chase/geocaches/naumburg And just so you don't feel left out BLAA, there ...

... think - I know there's one at 72nd, 79th and 96th but beyond that I'm not sure - so once you're on that greenway path, you could be there for a while. So I'd plan to spend most of my time in Riverside Park instead, knowing that you have more options. As far as places to eat, my suggestions would ...
