Geocaching Australia

After having a chat to FireSafe and also, just now, a lengthy chat to CFS hotline people I have some info to share re fires and notifications which are applicable if you are out caching.... Might be of use for some. CFS Alerts that get sent to mobile phones to warn you of a fire are linked to TOWERS...

Has anyone owning a Mac ever used either Parallels or Bootcamp with regard to GSAK? If you did how did you find them re effectiveness and ease of use?

I just want to say THANKYOU to GEOCACHERS everywhere. Geocaching is my Sanity and always has been. It is my release valve. We have this wonderful community of cachers, marvellous volunteers, - reviewers, people who set up Events big and small, amazing AND talented hiders, people who seek with enthus...

Team Astro used to have a good one.

Like giving a loved one money for a birthday present, it does seem like the easy, no-thought option. I guess there's a justification if there's a swap in a cache that you really, really want but aren't carrying any swag of your own... Sometimes ....you might have a child with you....sometimes you d...

I'd just add three things to all that wonderful advice. 1. Always let someone know where you are going....well at least roughly. If you are going to be out in the scrub alone or walking near cliffs...tell someone. You never know! 2. If you are heading off into the scrub or there are several caches t...

Take your wife/girlfriend and /or kids. They are very useful for finding things that are low down and they also have a little more patience. :lol: you obviously have never cached with my wife ;) After 10 minutes searching she gets frustrated and walks off...:D Haaa haa YOU obviously never cached wi...

Thanks Skip.
It is a box trailer; so now I guess I need to know how one knows if it is strong enough to support racks on???????

Yup--don't want tent attached to trailer. Just roof racks attached...so we can carry the folded tent and take it off and put it up on the ground when destination is reached. Our problem is at 2metres long it won't fit either in the car or in the trailer. If it goes on the trailer assuming roof racks...

I am just wondering if anyone can offer advice here, as google is not being my friend? We would like to get an Oz tent and it needs to go a roof rack as it won't fit in the car. We also have a little enclosed trailer. (About 5 ft) I am wondering if we could legally put a roof rack upon the trailer? ...

I seldom have time to come to the forums and did so today for another reason....but saw this first and ...I just have to comment. Caching has saved my soul and my sanity! In the past few years I simply do not know WHAT I would have done had I not been introduced to this absolutely wonderful sport. P...

I know sometimes people are on hols and if they don't log from a phone have 100s to log when they get home. I understand and accept one liners, cut and pasted into a variety of cache logs. I hate reading "99th out of today's 117 etc.">> boring comment but accepted. I also accept and understand the r...

When you can't cache for long periods you feel intense feelings of withdrawal, depression, the world is not the same.
Your family notices a different person when you can get back out there!
Your handbag is chosen by whether you can fit a GPS in it!

ahhhhhhhhh well I understand those who say Kaysh, but to me a SOUTH AUSSIE, its cash and cashing!! Then again the "ache...cake"....well ....the mind boggles to have your cache and eat it too?????????

Yep Ceres.....what a fun cache...when your child can fit inside!.....Inside the cache that is!
