Geocaching Road Trip is FINALLY Here

     We have been planning and waiting for over a year for this Geocaching road trip. We are heading to The Original Stash, Groundspeak, Canada and many more. My daughter is Graduating so we have been preparing for this celebration. I don’t know about you but the one thing that makes our celebrations better is, geocaching!
      Nails are done…Calling cards are ready to leave in caches and SWAG is done! Still packing and will be up until we leave.

Happy Caching!

Would you watch a Geocaching TV SHOW?

     Ted and I have often wondered why there is not a TV series about Geocaching. There are so many TV series that are dedicated to useless professions, hobbies and people. A series about Geocaching would be a refreshing option to the other selections on TV.  It looks like someone else had the same thoughts, Geo Crashers.  “Geocrashers” are the most extreme form of geocachers. They will go anywhere and do anything in pursuit of their target.
     When we decided to go on the FTF Tours Geocaching Cruise we were connected with one of the Be FTF guys and found out they are working on this awesome Ideal.  In the daytime, he is actually a film & television producer, and we've been working on an extreme geocaching travel show. They have a network thinking about picking up the show, but they want a pilot to see if it will work, and they won't pay for it. That is where we come in, we are trying to help by asking everyone in the geocaching community to help make their goal so they can shoot the pilot and get the show on the air.
SHOW CONCEPT: Our team will hunt down some of the most remote and dangerous geocaches in the world. Along the way, they'll learn about history, science and culture.

ABOUT US: We're a group of film and television pros who also happen to be hardcore geocachers.

WHY KICKSTARTER?: After pitching the idea for this show around Hollywood for a couple years, we've finally received some real network interest. (Seems they're interested in reaching the multi-million strong geocaching community after all.) However, they're not certain of its market appeal enough to fund a pilot. That's why we're coming to you. We need to shoot a pilot in order to get the network execs to make the show.  If any of you can help you can be a backer of this project for as little as $1. Just click on this Geocrashers Kickstarter link and you can get more details and help be a part of bringing a Geocaching show to TV. We are proud backers and hope you will be as well so this series can be made.

  Thanks…we are getting ready to leave for a huge caching trip including caching in Canada, The Original Stash, Groundspeak and many more, can’t wait to blog about it!

Ok everyone here is a sweet little announcement on an upcoming Dirtbag Geocache Society event. GC4BGHZ DGS West ☠Our Geocaches Can Beat Up Your Geocaches. This event will be held in Fort Collins, CO on July 14th 2013. The great thing about this even is you do not need to be present to participate and even win a great prize or trophy. The even is really a contest on who can build the coolest geocache. As dirtbag style goes these are going to be some excellent, well crafted, NON MICRO geocaches. We are trying to get as many people to enter as possible so here is your invite to enter.

    The rules to this contest/event are simple. Basically you just need to follow the Dirtbag general idea of geocaching.

                 

                                Rules:

(1) Geocache container size will be "Small" and Larger - No Micros
(2) Every container must be large enough to hold 2 'D' Batteries inside of the container - where the log and swag would go, while the container is closed completely.
(3) Geocache container must be modified in some way
(4) Geocache container must fit the THEME of The Matrix
(5) Entries will be on display anonymously for voting

Matrix

Yes there is a special theme you have to follow to enter. Your cache MUST have something to do with the matrix. It does not matter what you do as long as it has something to do with the Matrix movie series. You can use characters, movie clips or anything from any of the three movies.

   We cant wait to see what all of you come up with. I am sure that there are going to be some awesome geocaches that come from these events. Get your ideas put together and get an entry built for this one.

lets make them know that our geocaches can beat up their geocaches.
