Geocachers

[karstic]

Any of the geocachers interested in attending an event cache?

Boatwrench, rightseatsis, puppetmaster, IntrepidXJ, anyone else?

I was thinking of just a couple of hours at a pizza place.

[IntrepidXJ]

Depends when it is....but I'd be up for attending if I can squeeze it in :)

Or another idea would be to make it a breakfast event.

[tuxxj]

Yes, me too. I was planning doing some anyway.

[Boatwrench]

Mary has a geocache selected called "Only in a Jeep"

[rightseatsis]

There is a series of caches along the Sovereign/Copper ridge trail by cacher Miriam & Molly that I am interested in hunting.

And of course there is a cache called "The Hammers" that has stumped Boatwrench and I before, so I would really like to claim it this time.

[XJourney]

I would be interested. For me it is a second hobby right after wheeling. So as long as it doesn't interfere with the wheeling.

[Handlebars]

How about checking on "Rusty Nail"? I placed it a few years ago and have not been back since to see what kind of shape it is in.

Send me a PM of where it is at, I plan on running that trail again in Oct. ;)

[Goatman]

I see a few people that need to do the Swamp Lake trip next year. We placed 3 while we where there last month.

[karstic]

I'm thinking something simple of maybe an hour or two at the local pizza parlour for beer (they serve that in Utah, right?) and pizza.

I would make it an "official" Event Geocache. Right now I'm thinking Tuesday night.

Of those who responded how would that work out for you?

Can anyone recommend a pizza place?

[Boatwrench]

Don't recall the name of the place, know it by memory but there is a place on the Main St that has an all you can eat salad & pizza bar for ~$11 per person. Probably called Moab Pizza but one of the locals would know for sure.

Good pizza!

[DrMoab]

Yep, Zax.

How bout on Thursday?

[IntrepidXJ]

I sure could go for some more Beer Cheese Soup from Zax ;)

You don't drink beer.

[IntrepidXJ]

You don't drink beer.

correct....good thing the soup doesn't taste like beer :roll:

[ROOK1]

I would be in for Thursday.

[Goatman]

There will be some food for Tues at Slickrock as folks get aquainted and sign up for trails, there will be food served at the show and shine on Thurs. Wed is the open night, or just go have a few beers in the evening.

[DrMoab]

Wed would be good for me.

Tues is really the only bad day. I won't be there till Wed morning.

[karstic]

Should I start a poll for a date?

[IntrepidXJ]

i think we should do it Wednesday, so it doesn't interfere with any other activities.

[karstic]

Ok Wednesday evening is looking like the day.

I'll call Zax and see if the might have a side room or such that we could reserve.

I don't think they do.

[karstic]

I don't think they do.

Wel thn we'll just show up en masse.

[IntrepidXJ]

We showed up with a big group to Zax before and they had no problems.....so I don't that it will be an issue :)

Na, just tech, and socal. :) Looks good. I think I have to save these as points of interest..

Bah, go figure it can't do tracks. :( Hmm. What's a good model I can dump tracks into?
