| With the recent snowfall it might be time to update the attributes to your caches. For me, winterfriendly is whatever won't be buried in snow. I'll take the skis, snowshoes to get through the snowdrif ... | |

| I also mostly do paperless geocaching: basically I have no info on the cache when I get on location, apart from the name and whatever I can remember from the listing. If I spot something important (sa ... | |

| My work might take me elsewhere. Actually, that might be great to geocache in a new area, but no guarantees they have many caches there. | |

| I use Energizer rechargeable 2500 mAh. No complaints, I can usually do a weekend on a set. I think they last longer than alcalines in the first place so that made it a good investment. I have a 6 hour ... | |

| Actually, my bet is the Trove Chasers to reach that milestone before me (if I ever do). I'm not sure they will close the gap before MHz or ertyu, but they'll eventually pass them too. Also, I might no ... | |

| Usually I plan to visit some interesting area (provincial parks in most cases) and just plan a route around that. All the better if I can have a return path different than the one I took to get there. ... | |

Forum: Caching Posted: Sep 10, 2008 3:04 am Subject: Favorite Cache? |
| This is quite difficult to answer, but I'll say Runestone by Troop6 (GC1CD2H). But to pick a cache in Manitoba, I'll mention Gnorman's Diamond Mine by Z'tirnats & Z'ad(GCYAHF) as one of my early f ... | |
