Geocaching Quick Tips: Printing Off Your Own Geocache Log Sheets.

It happens more frequently as a geocacher. You find the geocache you were looking for and when you go to sign the log it is either full or a squishy pile of goo. Now what? Wouldn't it be great to have your own empty log book stash right with you for these occasions? Sure you can just say "oh well", mark your smiley in your app and walk away, but, wouldn't it be better to help contribute to the geocaching community and simply replace the log? Here is all you need to know.

First, head on over to this website and check out all the different geocache log book templates you can print out: http://www.techblazer.com/geocaching-log-sheets/

You can print out log sheets in black and white or color from .05 inches for nanos, 1.25 for micros to 2.5 inches for small and regular sizes. There are several varieties to choose from.

Simply print a couple of sheets for each size you want to create. I recommend only one sheet for the nanos. You get 48 full logs on one sheet.

For everything else I print out two sheets of each size each. That way you can make a log book with enough room for plenty of geocachers to sign and yet not too big to fit in the container. Below are some photos for the next step.


Put two sheets on top of each other facing up. Then staple each of the logs together somewhere near the logo. This will help keep them together when cutting, folding and placing them in their baggies. Note:  Reclosable Plastic Poly Clear Bags can be found in most craft stores.

Cut the outside blank boarder off of the log sheet.

Cut each of the individual logs sheets from each other.

Fold the log sheets in half and then in half again.

Place them in individual jewelry baggies.

Make as many logbooks you would like for the sizes you think you will most likely need to replace when out geocaching. In about an hours time you can have a complete collection for your new geocaches and replacements for others.

Hope you found this post helpful and you can find more quick tips and other geocaching insights from this blog and our GeoSnippits webpage.

Geocaching Quick Tips: The Difference Between Geocaching Travelers, Trackables and Swag

With the ever growing number of items in the geocaching world that can have tracking numbers on them. It would be a good time to go over the differences between Geocaching Travelers, Trackables and Swag. Then let you know as a geocacher what you should do with them if found.

Geocaching Travelers:

These are usually Travel Bugs and Geocoins. Travelers go from geocache to geocache on what ever goal that is specifically given to them. THEY ARE NOT SWAG and are the personal property of their owners.

These toys have a special ID tag and go from geocache to geocache.
They are called Travel Bugs or Travelers

You can tell if they are travelers by the unique id code either stamped on them (geocoins) or a special tag is attached to the item (travel bugs).  These id numbers are unique to each traveler and can be tracked on geocaching.com. Many have specific goals and/or destinations they wish to achieve. All of the geocaches they enter or exit from is marked specifically for that traveler and can have the entire history shown on a map of the world. If a traveler is found you may take it from the geocache (or event), log that you have it and then place it in another geocache with the intent of helping it with it's goal. A geocacher should only hold onto a traveller for a couple of weeks before releasing it back into the wild.

Geocaching Trackables:

These items are very similar to Geocaching Travellers as they also have a unique id code associated with them. They are also trackable on geocaching.com. The main difference between a trackable and a traveler is that the items associated to the id code do not go from geocache to geocache. 

The License Plate on our wall is a Trackable Item

The aforementioned trackable items can be just about anything but usually do include t-shirts, automobile stick on's, license plates, geocaching memorabilia, etc.  Basically anything you can put a trackable id number on can become a trackable. Trackable items are property of their owners and should only be "Discovered" when logged at geocaching.com.


Geocaching Swag:
Tradable swag are items placed in geocaches by other geocachers. Most range from kids toys, trinkets, dollar items, etc. There is one exception that has an id code and is still considered tradable swag, those are known as Path Tags. These quarter sized items have a small hole in them and on the back a unique id code. These are tracked at www.pathtags.com. Even though they sort of look like mini geocoins they are not and if you find one, you can keep it. Trade for equal or better like any other swag but they are collectable.

These are Path Tags and even though they have an ID number they are considered SWAG

So there you have it.

• Travelers "travel" from one geocache to the next and are personal property of their owners. They have a unique id code attached.
• Trackables are items that have a unique id code and do not travel from one geocache to the next.
• Swag usually does not have unique id codes except for path tags and are swappable items you can trade when found in a geocache for equal or better value.

Please respect the items you find in geocaches and ensure that they safely go from geocache to the next if they are travelers. Trade swag for equal or better value with what you find. Enjoy all these geocaching game pieces and the adventures they take.

Geocaching Quick Tips: Placing A Geocache BEFORE it is Published

Geocaching Quick Tips: Placing A Geocache BEFORE it is Published

I have found this to be a truly newbie geocache issue.

Filling out and submitting a new geocache hide and not actually place the geocache BEFORE it is actually Published.

I have found the reason it tends to be a newbie issue is if you are the hider and actually have this happen you will get some unkind logs. If you are the possible finder you most likely will be placing a non favorable note to the hider stating your displeasure. For the hider you most likely do this only once.

So what happens:
An FTF Hound or geocacher receives a notification stating a new geocache was just published.
The race is on! How far away are you from the new geocache? How quickly can you get to ground zero and how many other geocachers could get there before you?  Tally Ho.

First To Find hounds all want to be signer number one and enjoy the bragging rights of "Clean Sheets".
Except for one problem. The geocache was not put in it's hiding spot by the hider.

Absolutely maddening to geocachers. Nobody wants to go for a fresh find and have to mark a Did Not Find. Especially if it hasn't been actually placed yet.

So a very good Geocaching Quick Tip is to actually place the geocache in it's hidey whole BEFORE you actually publish the cache page. A very common response from new geocacher is, "I didn't realize it would be published so quickly".

Don't take the chance and hide your geocache first! We would be very appreciative.

When HeadHardHat Says "Poke It With A Stick" Here's Why...

You have heard Andy HeadHardHat Smith state on his videocasts, podcasts and videos to always check before reaching into an unknown or unseen area. HeadHardHat always tells fellow geocachers to "Poke It With A Stick".

Well when you check out the photo for today's geocaching adventures you can see why.

Young Female Black Widow on Geocache

This is a young female Black Widow that was clutching it's nest which just happened to be on the lid of a geocache HeadHardHat was going for today as #14 of the 31 Days of Geocaching. Fortunately it was on the opposite side of the geocache that was reached for but could have very easily bitten when attempting to take off the top.

All of this was caught on video and will be on HeadHardHat's Vlog tonight. Check out Day 14 of the 31 Days of Geocaching Series. Here is the link to the playlist.
http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLSyBeevfv1MzOX1sVvtq7qlvpRPQeaiCs

The episode should air later tonight (8/14/2013). So keep and eye out or subscribe to HHH's You Tube Channel to be sure and get all of his geocaching videos.

COORDS Are Final For My There Be Dragons Here Multi Listing Series - W00t!

Yes I am one happy geocaching hider. After all the work and investigation along a nearby greenway I finally have all of the coordinates in place for my geocaching series There Be Dragons Here.  So all of the ammo boxes are ready, filled with swag, FTF prizes, notebook and proper signage. The coordinates have been registered in the four listing services and just waiting final approval from two of the sites. The geocaches get hidden tomorrow and once all are approved I will officially publish them to be found. I am very excited and also interested if geocachers will just go for the ones on their listing site and ignore the rest or go for the whole series. I now have officially placed a hide on all the main services.

Will let you know when it is ready and the GC number for the first of the series. Good luck everyone and I hope you enjoy the quest.

Met HillbillyHermione Looking For A 22 Favorite Point Geocache

Geocache Owner HillbillyHermione and HeadHardHat

On Saturday, Amy and I went for a geocache known as Hotel Illness which has 22 favorite points and now i know why.

After arrivimg near ground zero we scoured the area for about half an hour with no apparent spot around big enough to hide a large lock n lock box. We needed a little help on this one. Fortunately cache owner HillbillyHermione happened to be nearby and was very gracious to point us in the right direction. After making the find we got to spend a few minutes to talk and it was very cool to meet her and see this excellent geocache. Its GC36NA5 if interested in learning more.

The History of the Bison Tube, why is it called a bison tube?

A Bison Capsule?

I was recently asked by one of our GeoSnippits Reboot Podcast viewers a rather interesting question.

"Why is a bison tube called a bison tube?"

Personally I have been using the pinky sized geocaches since for me the very beginning and never really put too much thought into it before. What surprised me when doing my research was the lack of information out on the World Wide Web. Oh sure there are tons of companies out there that sell them but where did they originate? Were they originally geocaches or made for something else? The answers were very difficult to find. In fact, I ended up talking with the company that designed the original bison tubes, though back then they were not known as bison tubes, read on.

When I found out the company that originated the bison tube concept was called "Bison Designs" a bit of the DOH! factor hit me but it was "Pixie" one of Bison Designs employees that filled in all the details.

Apparently back in 2001, the people at Bison Designs created a product known as a "Bison Capsule". It was designed to carry and keep safe different types of heart medicine. It looks very much like the bison tubes of today with a key ring attachment hooked to a cap, an O-ring for a seal and a screw-able base.

It was the ingenuity of a geocacher that realized that it would make a fine container for a geocache that really brought it to the spotlight in popularity. In fact according to Pixie when the orders started piling in for the bison tube they decided to increase the product line with different available sizes.

You can still buy "capsules" from Bison Designs. Just go to www.bisondesigns.com and put the word "capsule" in their search field.  They have quite a selection. I think I am going to try the Hook Capsule. Never seen a design like that before. Cool!

So now you know!

What Geocaching goals do you have for 2013?

The year 2013 is quickly approaching and now that we are apparently going to stick around for a while longer, it begs the big question...

What Geocaching goals do you have for 2013?

Is it a particular number of Geocache finds in a day? A state challenge to fulfill? How about a number of days in a row goal? What ever you are going for in the upcoming year we want to know it. Maybe you will inspire others to go for it as well... Greatness!

A Munzee Benchmark

Had an absolute blast today on a gorgeous fall day here in Raleigh, North Carolina. The temps were near 70 with an abundance of sunshine. So I just had to go out and get some geocaching/Munzee Hunting done.

Below you can see my Munzee attack route for the day. It was great, not only were the hides done very well with a minimum of searching required but it didn't take all afternoon to do the run. In fact it only took about 40 minutes or so. Awesome.

A dozen Munzee sweep

Oh sure don't get me wrong I love geocaching and taking those long walks on the greenways or enjoying the woods in all their glory. Though when it comes to urban hides where all you have to do is walk up and do a click and scoot, there is nothing like it.

As an added bonus I also was able to do a benchmark find as well. The hider of the Munzee saw fit to point it out which was very much appreciated. See below.

Benchmark near a Munzee hide

Well the afternoon is young and while I wait to see what this evening will bring in weekend activity I think I am going to head back out for some geocaching. So, what are your geocaching plans this weekend?
