2005 Minbin.com and Minnesota Wild hunts

Their geocaching name is HNTS2MCH. (hunts too much) Ok Ijust told them about this activity yesterday (Sat) morning, I gave them coordinates, they went and found it and BAM they're hooked. So they got registered and found four more yesterday, bought stuff to make a cache of their own, and found 4/7 today. I created monsters.

Are you King Boreas or is that someone else on this site? I do remember a KB on the Pioneer Press message board.

Ian is King Boreas

I gave them coordinates, they went and found it and BAM they're hooked

yep, that's the way it works.

That many finds and they've only been at it a couple days? They might be more hooked than I am.

Might be time for your new hobby KC0GRN :goofy:

ROLLER DERBY!

or not :confused:

nah.. I'll stick to sports where I'm not quite as inclined to get Horribly bruised

woohoo! Thanks me2!

hey if you don't get bruised while playing something, you're not playing hard enough!

I'd like a copy of that if she's got one extra.

I've gotten bruised geocaching before, I just prefer not to....

Hey now.... Jake took a beating.... :wink:

I suppose I've had my share of stick pokes to the eye in the woods. Hmm, maybe safety goggles should be reccomended while caching.

jake is gonna have to wear some med hunting this year... doctors orders

huh....

those are pretty cool lookin... you could attatch lights to the sides where those fruity rocketship lookin things are....

try claiming you were from star-trek or something?

or ummm.... i missed the blue "light" shooting out of them earlier....

maybe just attatch lights that look cooler...

Hnts2Mch couldn't find Land of the Giants (Traditional Cache) at 8/30/2005

Log Date: 8/30/2005

Did not find it this time. Ran out of time on my lunch break. Will try again after work. I'm truly addicted.

12 finds in their first 3 days? dang....

Thats almost as cool as me getting 1000 posts.

lol

OTS Joe

Yeah, like I said they're addicted. They both are avid hunters,(killing critters that is) and are comfortable with GPS since they use it for hunting and fishing. So this time of year when there is nothing to hunt, geocaching makes a great substitute. My sister even talked some her co-workers to go with her during their lunch break!!! She even made up a 3-ring binder of finds and future finds. She is already plotting for when she goes to New Mexico to visit my other sister!

Any objection on the name change of this discussion to keep it active for all the hunts?

Speaking of, Is anyone heading over to get todays 5 IGH clues?

No objection from my section of the peanut gallery

sounds good to me. as long as we keep individual threads for the big hunt.

I am at work so don't have the IGH clues yet...if anyone has them, please post! Thx

Are we doing an invitational for the big dig?

I didn't think we were RB since it'll be pay-to-post by then.

Well here's the first 5 clues. I glanced at them for 2 minutes and figure it's at GrOveLanD. I can't make it out until tomorrow so give me props if you find it early. :smile:

Good Luck!

You just want to hunt while getting in a round. If it is NV it's probably going to be in those woods by the parking lot since you won't be in the path of any discs, balls or bikes then. Plus it would go all 15 clues even if they told you it was right there anyway. Any particular noodle put you there?

Awesome disc Kitch!

Oh crap! I took off early to find where Groveland was only to find out that the map on their website is wrong and it turns out that it's the same park I looked in for a week straight during their first hunt 3 years ago. Damn! How could I forget that? I never searched longer and harder than any hunt I've ever done in one single park and I forget the damn name. Sheesh!

I gotta see what tomorrow brings. I'll call ya with the clues Kitch to see what you think. We gotta take this home as I feel it's the hardest one out of all the local hunts.

We checked out North Valley (teen and 20ish hangout!)..didn't like it as much as Oakwood. Liked Groveland...sorry we missed ya, CM. We'll be checking some other spots tomorrow morning when the Park n Rec opens...

I'm there - Oh, And I'll be comando too.

The only way to hunt! :confused:
