May 2, 2006 Hi, I'm a writer for RV Living magazine (rv-living.com), a custom magazine produced by Rodale Custom Publishing. I'd like to interview some people...
They mention that that log book is buried and show them burying it. It also mentioned geocaches are normally buried. Of course, none of that is correct. Did...
too bad that they didn't actually talk to someone that knew about geocaching before doing the article. glenn...

Happy belated birthday geocaching. Dave Ulmer invented geocaching and introduced it to the world on May 2, 2000, the day after President Clinton stopped the...

Very cool to re-live this history. I missed out on the initial cache posts but found out about the sport very shortly after it started and have been part of...
Did a quick search on geocaching.com and found Mingo again. Looks like its the oldest active cache: http://forums.groundspeak.com/GC/index.php?showtopic=48657...

One of these days the historians at Groundspeak will get it right. Dave Ulmer created the first stash on May 2, not May 3 as reported on the website's new...

Yeah, I've seen geocaches made out of pipes. And I've seen unmarked geocaches. Perhaps that's not real smart. But what kind of idiot looks at a geocache and...
I just saw the report on the local news (I live in Colorado Springs). The officer was holding it, and it looked like a PVC pipe with end caps or something on...
I think if people would just take the time to write on the outside of the container in BIG letters GEOCACHING.COM or THIS IS A GEOCACHING CONTAINER,...
Good point. People who don't label (with words) their geocaches are being more silly than people who mistake them for bombs. I do have to ask myself, if it WAS...
Overall, I do not think writing GEOCACHE on a pipe cache would make a difference. After all the press pipe caches get, any terrorist should be able to figure...
