Geo what???..... Want to find out more about Geocaching! (http://www.geocaching.com)
New to the area or want a local to show you how? Just like wheelers there are groups who are willing to teach and help out.
Two websites will help you out.
http://www.gbesgeo.org/ AND http://groups.yahoo.com/group/GBESGeocachers/
I will post more here when I find out more info. If you really want to get into caching then get on the yahoo groups (http://groups.yahoo.com/group/GBESGeocachers/).
I know a few folks have expressed interest and I apologize for not getting back with you. However I believe we can set up a reno4x event where we can do some wheeling and caching around the Storey County area as well as see some of the local trails and maybe a canyon or two. It would run from Lousetown to Lockwood with some views and pit stops of Logermarsino Canyon and Bronco Canyon.
Will need a little bit of time to set that up though. Any volunteers to run me up and down the area or follow along on a mild trail ride? PM me and we can arrange a date to go. Bring a GPS, Water and a camera....
Save May 19 for a GBES teaching event.
we're going to offer GPS 101 and Geocaching 101 at an indoor facility
for total newbies.
- then an outdoor 'field/lab' session for hands on practice at a local
park. There will even be some Rally School practice for those of you
entering the GBES rally in June. This will be followed up with a commraderie session at a local pizza joint. We're looking for geocacher volunteers to help newbies out in
the 'field/lab' session at a local park. Please watch for the event posting - and if it's possible to help volunteer- please post a note with the type of GPSr that you can help
with. Indoor class size will be limited - so it will be first come first
served!
