Geocaching: The Highs and Lows

Sunday, July 6th, 2008

One of the most pleasing aspects of living in the Finger Lakes region of NY state is the diverse landscape around the lake areas. One hour you can be hiking on a trail overlooking small towns and hamlets
100’s of feet above them as in this shot:


Bath


One hour later you can be hiking along a lake edge looking up at the surrounding hills where you were a short time ago. The lakes offer so many interesting views and also some comical ones as with this

We have reached a point in our caching in this area where in order to find new areas, where there are caches we have not found, we have to do some traveling. With our busy schedules and the price of
gas it takes a lot more preparation than before. That leads to less caching trips and less blog posts about them. My next post will have to do with some of the equipment we use on our caching trips.


Happy hiking.

Slow Caching News

Saturday, September 15th, 2007

It’s been a few months since I have made a post here about our caching adventures.

With 197 finds we only have 3 more to go to meet our 2007 goal and we have been going out. The main problem is there hasn’t been anything memorable to write about. I could bitch about micros in the woods described as “Small” containers so they aren’t caught in the micro filter or even caches where the cooridinates were off by 90 feet or more on both of our GPS units, but I’ll save those rants for another day.

As soon as we find something worth writting about I’ll take the time to do it. In the mean time, I’m working on a couple of things about our work and spiritual quests.
