Re: Can you help these guys out?

I'm not quite certain what he is asking for. Is he looking for transportation around the area to hunt for caches?

Re: 2012 Holiday Shindig

The only benefit for the Holland location is that it is just down the road from me.... that said, last years location was great and considering the price difference I vote for Simpson as well.

Re: Which GPS Do You Like??

Most GPS units allow coordinate averaging.... The unit takes multiple coordinates over several minutes and gives you the average of all of them. I do that a couple of times until the final results are consistent. I don't believe smart phones are inherently that accurate and they do not appear to hav...

Re: Which GPS Do You Like??
