We are in…Dirtbag GeoCaching Society

Ted and I are officially members of the Dirtbag Geocaching Society! We first learned about DGS when Ted was in the running for Groundspeak’s Geocacher of the Month award November 2012. DGS supported his nomination and then we looked into what they are about. Many cachers have asked us about DGS and what they are. The best way to describe it is:

The Dirtbag Geocaching Society believes in hiding quality caches. If it can’t hold two DD batteries then they won’t hide it. They want to be quality hides to the game. It is a closed group that you have to complete a challenge or be invited to. They do this to make sure members are dedicated to improving the quality of geocaching.
After learning this, we wanted to be members. We have been long time supporters of creative fun hides and we strive to hide caches that are favorite point worthy. So we knew we would fit right in. For our challenge we had to hide a cache and film it. So we hid DGS #12 HEADing to a MICRO... After the submission we waited for the official word and we received the good news on April 13th. Not only was it Ted’s birthday but we were also on our way to the GPS Adventures Maze Exhibit - Wildlife Experience GC42F2J and to meet up with some members of the Rocky Mountain Dirtbag Geocaching Society. It was the best welcome to the Society dinner ever. They gave us some goodies:

We were so excited to get path tags, trackable pencils, DGS bracelets and a logbook with RMD stamps. It was a such a great welcome.
We have enjoyed our time as members and we plan on starting the SL UT DGS chapter here in Salt Lake. We have just been enjoying being new membership are just getting ready to start our chapter. Look for more to come. We have started our SWAG:

We are going to Seattle, Groundspeak, the original stash and Canada next month so we plan on placing them in every cache from here to Canada.
We hope we have shed some light on what DGS is and how awesome they are. We are super proud to be members. We encourage you to look into the awesome things they do for geocaching.
Happy Caching!

Saturday Morning Yard Sales=Great Cache Containers

     Have ever woke up on a Saturday or Sunday morning with an excitement to go out and find a few yard sales? If so then you know what kind of fun we are talking about. We love finding a good yard sale. Good yard sales usually go hand in hand with good things for your caching hobby.
To the average person this looks like a fifty cent jewelry box shoe, but to a cacher it looks like an awesome cache. I think it would be cute to fill with worry dolls and call it “I live with the Old Woman in a Shoe.”

     Today we scored some new swag, cache containers and introduced a yard sale host to caching. If you haven't had a yard sale day, we highly recommend you go try it.
     While we were out last week a FTF was published while we were at a yard sale near the cache, so we were able to score a FTF and some good buys.

This amazing Castle jewelry box costs us one dollar and I am sure we will make our money back 100 times over when we turn it into a cache and read the logs. We are thinking of calling it “Not your average kNIGHT cache.”
We picked up the bag of trolls for fifty cents, planning on using them for SWAG and travel bugs.

This find is my favorite. This guy was a bit more expensive and cost us three dollars. When you turn him over you can fit a big lock and lock inside for a regular size cache. We are thinking he needs to be hidden by a dive shop. Not sure what we are going to call this one, will figure out after find a location. He is going to be a favorite point cache for sure.
We hope some of our finds have inspired you to check out your local yard sales and keep your eyes open for cache containers. These containers make caching fun. If you find any, please feel free to share the pictures.
Happy Caching!

Congrats to Ryshkepr-FTF KING & after work caching

OMG this game is the best. Ask yourself when was the last time you tried to beat someone to a FTF only in hopes to win and instead you find the best cachers in the world there? My favorite part of caching is watching my son Jackson find the cache first and the next thing I love is beating Ryshkepr & his partner in crime G & C Lost'N'Found. But tonight the dynamic duo beat us. It is ok because we got a ryshkepr path tag! Congrats Ryskeper on your 1000 find. Your Path Tags rock too! So tonight after work we are sharing some of our finds and a big congrats to our favorite mailman…..not Karl Malone!
