A reward I won't be able to achieve. A great start then ... nothing. Hopefully the caches I did get won't spoil next year's competition - perhaps I'll even be allowed to take day or two off work.

Last year I was new to caching and was able to split my time between two countries and picked up all the high value caches in both places. This year I'll have to try a LOT harder. <br> Tactics played a huge part last year and even if you don't compete it's fun to watch how the games play out. Roll o...

With the normal stuff we all carry today, the laptop is just another bit of gear in tub - takes no time at all. The tri...

I have 2 cache types, Traditional and Others. Each are set up with their own Icons and POI categories. The Icons are set up statically in the Tomtom and the POIs get generated periodically from GSAK. <br> <br> I can then navigate to either category of cache and it lists them by distance from current...
