Welcome to You

Welcome to our blog about our adventures in geocaching around the Pacific Northwest, our little corner of the world. We started Geocaching on March 6, 2010. We are approaching 600 finds and have an even 100 hides so far.

Geocaching is a fun activity for Nosey Rosey (Dawn) and I and we do it as a team. It has taken us around our county to places we have never seen before in 13 years. The exploring is just one aspect of the fun in geocaching. We go out nearly every weekend and use multi-million dollar satellites to play our hobby for free using an iPhone and my handheld GPS.

I (Ed) go by GeoHL now since I am called GeoHotLine by some of the fellow geocachers in the area.

Geocache Blitz


I am going to be dropping another BSA Geocoin and a NEW BSA Travel Bug (pictured) in a location locally and send them on their way. I will be sending updates on the movement of the TB and geocoin as they travel around the world (hopefully).

Still no reports on the BSA Geocoin that has traveled down to Lassen National Park 10 days or so now. Future updates on its movement will also be coming. Would like to see it move on now that we are in the middle of GCing season.

I am going to be publishing a bunch of NEW GC's all over Douglas County to help build up the numbers for everyone around here. Some will be easy and some will be a bit tougher but none will be a 5 on the difficulty scale. Some may be a 5 on the terrain scale however. LOL

There is a rumor in the wind about an upcoming GC event in the fall sponsored by the City of Roseburg... do I smell GEOCOINS ????

A certain Roseburg City Councilman (who I hooked into GCing big time) is being very good about creating some very creative GC locations over the past several weeks. Thanks for helping out build the numbers for everyone around here. I know that a certain Cubmaster in the Camas Valley area is also building our population of GC's from CV to Winston ... thanks for all your tricky hides.

Next weekend we will be traveling down to the SF Bay Area and of course we will be doing some GCing along the way and all over San Jose area when we visit the family. And of course we will be stopping for some GC's on the way home along 5 also. My brother will go crazy over this Geocaching - it is right up his alley. He loves to explore the foothills in the Bay Area and he will go nuts when he sees how many GCs are right around his area of San Jose.

We are going to introduce Geocaching also to my USAF son and his family and I hope that the grandkids will want to do this after they transfer to their new base in Tuscon, AZ. Hmmmmm... I smell a trip to Arizona sometime in the future to Geocache. I understand AZ is loaded with Geocaches because of all the retired people down there hiding them everyday. A GEOCACHE GOLDMINE from what I hear.
