Re: Trig? in Jindabyne

It not being a NSW Trig some people will say don't list it as a Trig Point, I on the other hand think it is a trig just not one listed by NSW. We have one in Tassie that isnt a 'real' trig as it was placed by HEC (Hydro Electric Commission) https://geocaching.com.au/cache/tp0831 but it is a metal ma...

Since everyone is in the same boat maybe we could all just live with losing 10.5 DZ points?

Re: Dinosaur Moveable Game September 2018

We are off and racing in Tasmania. I notice that any dinosaurs published and released at 12.05 pm this morning do not have any dragon zone points allocated but ones that were published later do? Also I have moved 4 dinosaurs this morning and they do not appear on the ladder as yet. Did the dinosaur...

Re: New phones to have 30cm GPS accuracy in 2018

Have the GCA & GC apps but seldom actually use them. Your comments indicate I'd have to load caches & maps onto my mobile if they were in remote areas so will have to investigate how to do that. I broke my wonderful Magellan 710 & have lost interest in caching as a result. It did everything without...
