Latest GeoStash Updates

thanks.  good one guys.  

Awesome job hiding the coordinates.  It took about 6 reads to find them.  A bit far though for me.  Good luck to the others.  

Well Troops, you are doing a great job of hiding the coord. Even when PVJeeper tells me what page, I still can't see then xv*&&& things. My old eyes and tri-focals.  

am I doing this wrong?  for the december issue, I'm getting maps of either China or the arctic ocean...and I know it's not the ocean...where do you guys go to put in your coordinates?  I tried a few different online ones and they all give me the same maps...???

The biggest problem that I have is finding all the coordinates. My wife always complains because I can never find anything. She says that if it's not moving, I can't see it. I guess that she is right, because I have a terrible time finding these coordinates!! How do you guys find them so fast?  

Go to http://www.geocaching.com/ this will take you to their home page, here you can search by coordinates, find the advanced search option next to the zip code search, advanced search is in purple lettering, click on that.Then click on postal code a drop down menu will appear 2nd one down will be coordinate click that, type in your numbers to the right, then seek. You will know if you did it right if a geocaching page comes up with active caches, good luck

Found the December coordinates. I guess the back east boys get another chance. Way too far east for me. How about something in Arizona? Maybe in the center of the state, if that is not too much to ask.  

If you type in the coordinates using Google maps the location should come up. If the coordinates are mixed up you will get locations such as those you've already come across, like China and the Arctic.

When you type in a coordinate on Google maps you might try putting the N and W in front of the degree portion rather than how it is hidden next to the minute and seconds in the magazine.  

Always wanted to sightsee in Tennessee, but there's no way I can justify this as a business trip like I did on the last two GeoStashes I've went for

Good Luck!

The GeoStash is great I have reading the magazine for about two year and gess Texas is not big enough to put a marker in. The one I was able to drive to in a day was July's and I look for about four hours. Then it was posted lost. I just ask if.......  

So nobody has found the December marker yet?  Has anybody looked for it and not found it?  I'm debating on whether to make the drive to try and get it.  Would hate to drive that far and somebody already have it.  

It looks like the marker is on land that's pay-access.  That sucks.  I almost decided to go look this time.  

Went looking for novembers but could not find the marker.  I did find a newer white t shirt in the location that i thought was it.  Has it been found????  

Hey, got an idea for you guys. Since you are having trouble knowing for sure when or if the markers have been found. Why don't you install a GPS tracking device onto the back of the plates. You can keep an eye on the plates after you drop it. If grows legs you will know... just my 2 cents. Never liked pennies anyhow....  

Ok, i went looking on october 3rd, my GPS said i was within 2 feet of marker.... but found nothing. are the people who are hiding this thing doing an avrage reading, or just taking a reading from there vehicle after hiding.... people need to know these things.....
