To search for a cache, use the search box in the top right hand corner. Seems like the ...

A benchmark is a point of reference for a measurement. In surveying a benchmark is set by a surveyor to mark a point of known vertical elevation.

when a destructive thunderstorm goes thru a forest, those so-called lightning flashes are not lightning at all, but the result of trees falling. That's my theory and I'm sticking to it :D Wind is caused by trees moving their branches and hence in turn, moving their leaves. Storms are caused by real...

How about the last 51 episodes of the podcast Geotalk?
And the video editions as well? That should fill up the rest of the CD for you, I think?

Thanks C@W - works properly now...

Recently I did the only active webcam cache in Tassie. The cache is a GA cache. Once completed, I manually marked it found in GSAK.

I've been asked by a newbie, where I was hiding to see him caching - he found the Mates page and saw my name under "seen once or twice" . I t...

distances broken down into segments on (say) a power of 10 scale starting at 1km. This would then cater for those who have found caches on the other side of the world without having a huge scale at the x axis. How about a slighty logarithmic X scale starting at 0 then 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10,...

I've been given some GPS Co-ords that I don't regognise and can't enter into my GPS. Can anyone else make some sense of them? S21 75 58 E140 39 18 There appears to be a number missing off each set and as far I know it's not possible to go past 60 minutes. ie: 21 75 58 Many thanks Regards John I rec...

I was perusing the other site and the little advert on the side caught my eye. It links to here.

As the projection room is fairly noisy, I could not make out all the sound but the vision was fine.
