Listen
to our interview with
SeeKPeeKRs of Calvert County, Maryland. Their first GPSR was
the Garmin
eTrex Legend but they're currently using the Garmin
GPSMAP 60Cx. For paperless caching they use the notes function
on their iPod loaded through MacCaching. They're playing with
the Geocaching iPhone
App. Their favorite location to cache has been their home state
of Maryland. Her favorite
books are the "Dragonriders of
Pern" series. While for movies she likes "Tremors,"
"Buckaroo
Banzai," "Star
Trek," and "Star Wars." Favorite
television series include "Amazing Race,"
"Big Bang
Theory," "Firefly,"
and "Survivor." Favorite
Musical Groups are "Carbon Leaf," "Genesis,"
"Rush," and
"The
Who."
Our "Tip for the
Seasoned Cacher" comes from Listener
WRWhizard:
"When you find a well worn 'GeoTrail' leading to the cache, it
might be a good idea to drag some dead fall over to block it so it
will grow back natural and help restore the difficulty of the
original hide. In general, you should cover your tracks and leave
no trace you were there. Conversely, I use the tracking skills I've
begun to acquire, to follow the hider to his newly placed cache. I
check logs to see how recently a cache has been found, and adjust
for how old the traces should be when carefully approaching the
cache area so as not to trample any clues."
