Coming Soon...
« on: May 19, 2011, 23:27:42 »
Ok so Rochester has been flooded with challenge series after challenge series. I'm not going to start one of those but I am slightly inspired by them. As soon as I can get them lined up I will be releasing a set of caches of increasing difficulty. It will start with a D/T 1/1 and progess up to a 2/2 and so on up to a 5/5. I hope to get good participation and feedback. It will more than likely involve puzzles and multis and kayak/ canoe caches as well as a few things I've got up my sleeve. Keep your eye out for the So You Think You Can Cache series...  ;D

Excellent, looking forward to it!
I have a "series" planned as well but the series is only loosly connected and I am slow and lazy when it comes to putting out caches. But I do love puzzles.

Its interesting that you say that given the lack of puzzle caches in the area... I like them but they do reach a point of being ridiculous... in my opinion the rochester area is getting to many puzzles.... but some are very cleaver...

Never let LCSM know you're placing a cache. I hear she's already driving around N Syr & Cicero looking for your container :)

Ok well I hit a small snafu... turns out the spot is in a WMA which means I need permission... didnt realize it was a WMA just thought it was state land... Waiting to hear back from the manager whether this location will be a green light. But since its a series and I got kinda bored I made a website check it out https://sites.google.com/site/soyouthinkyoucancacheseries/.

If LMSC finds the container before publication the FTF is deserved for doing it the hard way lol... but then again its not a particularly hard cache to start with so idk if it would be worth scouring WMA's... lol...

How did I not find this discussion till several days after my initial slamming?  Sigh. . . and by the way, yes, I'm driving around.  . . . right behind you watching your every move!

Well I'm not hard to follow in my Orange Colorado, often with bike and/or kayak on top...

I have finally heard back from the DEC and they don't know anything about any geocaches in WMA's in the area and they sent me some form for using state land but I'm supposed to show proof of a crazy amount of liability insurance and its a very generic form I dont think they even bothered to try and find out what a geocache was... I'm going to be going out after work to remove it until I get some of my questions answered and I'll be trying again here pretty soon to get this series rolling... sorry for the build up and then the let down...

I've moved the cache and hopefully I will get approval to publish it within the next 48 hours. I'm still going to try for permission to my original spot and just use it as a starting point or a part of a multi or something... keep your eyes peeled in the next few days...
