Found my 3400th cache yesterday and it was a pretty cool one too! What About BOB? is a cache that has been around for a while (Hidden: 9/4/2006) but for whatever reason or non-reason I had never looked for it. *SPOILER* It is a lock'n'lock container magnetized and hidden under a stairway/walkway going over the train tracks to the Bank One Ballbark (now changed to Chase Field after the merger between Chase and Bank One). If you find yourself in the downtown Phoenix area I would recommend both finding this cache as well as checking out a Diamondback's game even if you are not a baseball fan. The stadium is pretty cool. I was there on opening day covering the festivities for the Tucson Citizen and took my girl scout troop to watch a game once as well. Both times I was very impressed with the stadium and experience.
Another cache I enjoyed finding yesterday in downtown Phoenix was LANmarked. Although it is 45' off, the area is interesting and there are many different levels the cache could be plus it is a fairly busy area. The container is amusing too! I rounded out the run in the area with some other fairly standard urban hides: MES, a micro in a parking lot; Max's Hood, a regular sized container outside an apartment complex; and Rio Salado #1, a nice version of the standard electical plate cover made by a new and seemingly enthusiastic cacher in our area Mac Hammer. Thanks!
Earlier in the day I went for a hike in the Papago Park area and got a DNF off my list. Rocky Top Continued has a checkered past but was actually a nice hide. Last time we were there I did some bouldering looking for the cache whileTrizumi! spotted but obviously this was not necessary to make the find! I walked around a bit and checked out the nearby reservior which was completely drained. Very odd but interesting to see it with no water. I had heard there was good fishing to be had here, but not today ;)
Oh! and on Friday I left work for a bit and got two other caches in the area, All For Naught and Go Fish. I rarely if ever do "lunchtime" caches but the weather is so nice this time of year I might do it more often!

First Sunday
Welp, today was the first Sunday caching day and I went to an event (Not Applicable) with cute kitty but Trizumi! declined and went caching by himself. Hmmmm... not really sure if the transition to Sunday caching is going to work out.
On our way to the event I got a call from good friends AZgeckogirl and AZcachemeister that their JEEP had broken down. I was happy to swing by and pick them up and off we went!
Had a great time at the event and scored two illegal alien geocoins from the infamous TEAM 360 himself. (Thanks Jeff!) Afterward cute kitty and I had some quality mother/daughter caching time on the way home. She learned how to pull up the cache descriptions on my Blackberry using the fabulous app Cacheberry and was thrilled to read the page and logs to me while I drove. We didn't have a route planned, just kinda drove around and found a few here and there. The hides were all pretty standard for the area but we did enjoy the unique water features at the Gilbert Water Tower Park.
I'm 11 caches shy of 3400 today. Back to work tomorrow.

Weekend Plans
Hooray 2009!
Since I started caching with Trizumi! or for most of 2008, we have spent our Saturdays caching leaving Sunday as the day for chores.
This is in direct opposition with my own personal preference of getting stuff done on Saturdays and caching on Sundays. I mean really... there is no better time to cache than on Sunday morning in my opinion. If it's urbans you are after everyone is in bed or at service. Hiking? Then you are well rested to wake up and get to the trailhead at dawn. So I am pleased to say the new year brings on the transition to caching on Sundays. Whoo-hoo!
This Sunday brings a breakfast event, Not Applicable, which is unfortunately being held at The Fieldhouse. The Fieldhouse is probably a good place to toss a few drinks back while watching sports on the big screen - but breakfast? Ahh... no.
So my hopes are to get out early, cache a couple of hours in the east valley area, go to the event, mingle and get back out on the road for more caching. No firm plans with Trizumi! yet, so we shall see.

Palm Springs Recap
Had a GREAT Day in the Desert last weekend in the Palm Springs area. Didn't end up getting together with the K.N.O.C.K. group for night caching but Trizumi! stepped up and did some "darktime" finds with me (thanks!).
We did meet some fantastic people at the event: Wheeler Dealers, the host and hostess; Terra Girl & The Devious Max Power; EllisTrust as well as other very friendly Californians. It kinda felt like when I moved to Los Angeles from small town Tucson in that as soon as I got there it was a sigh of relief to find out there were people like me. In Arizona everyone is aloof and looks down on finding urban caches. You must be only interested in being a hard-core hiker / backwoodsman to be a REAL cacher (even though it's a metropolitan area?). It's gauche to talk about numbers. But in Cali, it's all good - at least from an Arizonan's point of view!
Looking forward to attending more Palm Springs events!

But even though I have not blogged - lots of geocaching stuff still going on!
Trizumi! and I placed two "challenge" caches:
Arizona Challenge of the Century - Traditional
and
Arizona Challenge of the Century - DNF
I had talked about putting these out months ago but never got around to it. Trizumi was concerned because a couple of other challenge type caches had been released recently and he felt the need to get a couple of them out right now. There are (at least) four more in the series yet to be published FTF, Multi, Mystery and Virtual. I hope to be putting those out in the next couple of weeks or so.
We placed the traveling cache at the base of Lookout Mountain (still has a nice view) but it has not been picked up yet.
Picking up cute kitty from the airport at 9:30 and heading directly to Palm Springs. My mecca of geocaching! We will do a couple of caches along the way, check in the hotel, maybe get a few more caches and then off to the event. GREAT day in the desert looks like it is going to have a huge turnout - 47 will attends! It is being held at the Stuft Pizza® Bar & Grill in La Quinta which looks very, very yummy.
We will be seeing some of our friends from Lake Havasu City and after the event we will be pulling out out flashlights for a night of caching with Southern California cachers. So fun!
Sunday will be spent on the Mission Trail series and on to Cabazon to cache and attend another event. This time a flash mob, KNOCKS VISIT WITH THE DINOSAURS, but there is a dinner afterwards at the Wheel Inn. I'm so excited!
More later - of course!

Drama
I been slacking on the blogging this week as I have spent my online writing time over at the AZCachers forum. There is this local guy who organizes hikes to get some caches along a trail. But he also makes it a geocaching event and lists requirements of you must do this and you must do that to be allowed to post an "attended log" for the event. Well now our local reviewer has said nope to his latest event and he came on to the forum to complain that people had complained and shut down his fun.
Well.... I figured that was an open invitation to post my views about his exclusionary events.

Traveling Cache #5
I love finding traveling caches in the wild! I love the whole FTF kind of rush but with a factor of 10X because there are so few of these grandfathered caches available.
Christmas Day I was in Tucson with the family unit and there was some sort of snafu about who, or what, or where regarding the celebration. I took that opportunity of confusion to leave and drive like a mad-woman 30 minutes away in pursuit of another illusive traveling cache. I had been watching "Final Approach" ( MacGyver MOVING Cache # 27 ) bounce about the Old Pueblo for approximately six months. I thought I may have a change given that just about everyone in Tucson had already logged it during it's tenure here plus everyone should be unwrapping presents or eating their roast beast. At GZ I saw no footprints around the area so I was fairly sure I was the first to arrive today. I turned over some rocks and then started to get a little frantic with my search technique ;) After calming myself down and taking a look I immediately saw the wire jutting out over the edge of the pole. Ahhhh... yes, success! I got in the car and sped away, dialing Trizumi! to let him know that his girlfriend did yet again procure a travelling cache that he will be able to log from the comfort of his living room.
From his geocaching.com profile:
Traveling Geocaches my Girl Friend has Procured for me to Log in my Living Room
50 State Traveler She drove from Tempe to Mesa Arizona to complete the procurement process.
STOP AND GO,GO,GO, 3 She drove from Tempe to Tucson Arizona to complete the procurement process. We later left it on a stop sign in Ajo, Arizona.
Little Known Park Finder 2 She drove from Tempe to Scottsdale Arizona to complete the procurement process. Later we moved it to a park in Gila Bend, Arizona.
If you have not encountered or heard of a traveling cache it is just as the name implies: a cache that travels from place to place. Before the advent of travel bugs, a few physical geocaches were published with the requirement that the finder actually take the cache and rehide it in a different location. After placing in the new location the finder/hider would post the new coordinates in a cache log or email the cache owner to update the page. These types of caches are no longer allowed but a few are still around due to being "grandfathered" in.
Lots of people choose to hang on to travelling caches and take them to events, there were several about at GeoWoodstock VI. I logged this one then. But since the whole fun of the cache is the moving aspect I think just handing it to someone so they can get a smiley is declasse. Except for the boyfriend... because he does help me rehide it :)

Replacement Cache
Trizumi! and I went to the cache, My Favorite Drinking Hole #34, last Saturday and found a bison tube with a piece of cardboard inside with 4-5 signatures. We signed the "log" and went on our way. When I logged online I mentioned the status of the cache as we had found it:
December 20 by Black_Cat (3213 found) Hmmm.. where Trizumi! and I found the cache it could definately not been seen from 10 feet away and it had a makeshift log (piece of folded cardboard garbage) with 5 or so signatures on it. Wondering if this is the cache or if there is another one nearby??? Either way, thanks for the cache!
The cache owner went out to check the status of his cache and what we found was not it! The true cache is there - wierd. I'm glad I posted the condition of the cache in my log as he was able to go out and remove the fake one.
My Favorite Drinking Hole#34 I was concerned about the cardboard log so I went by to check on the cache. I hate to say but that was not the cache. Someone placed another container with a board for a log. The really cache and log was just 3 feet away. I have removed the other container. Ok to count the find.
I wish people would not automatically assume that if they cannot find the cache then of course it is not there. And why waste a bison tube? I changed my "found it" to a "note." Maybe we will make it back by there someday.

Karmic Puncture Wound
Yesterday morning was so cold, in the low 40s, but cute kitty and I went to our favorite croissant shop for breakfast anyway. She had a huge peanut butter croissant which I'm guessing was pretty darn good because she only shared a tiny morsel and half of my sausage and egg with pepper jack breakfast croissant. She did not get any of my grande latte however ;)
While enjoying breakfast, I called Trizumi! to see about the plan for the day. He wanted to do some holiday shopping at Fry's electronics and other various destinations so we made plans to meet at my house. Since cute kitty and I were already out and about we decided to find a couple of caches while waiting for Trizumi! We went over to Mac's Second Hammer for a quick find by cute kitty with retrival by me. The reason this cache is called Mac's Second Hammer is because Mac's First Hammer was objected to by a local cacher as it was placed in an area designated for homeowner's use only. I'm glad Mac Hammer was not put off by the policing and continues to place new caches, as the next nearest unfound cache was another placed "him" so off we went!
We parked .25 away at the skate park so cute kitty could check it out but a skater boy was already there. We walked across the empty soccer fields in the hope he would leave by the time we got back from finding Mac Hammer's Legacy Tower. This cache is placed near the old Goodyear Tire water tower that I thought was scheduled to be torn down a while ago. I was glad to see it was still here and that a cacher thought it was cool enough to warrant a cache placement :) Although the area is a sports complex now, it was once all cotton fields and it's nice to have one remaining icon from that era. After signing the log we walked back to the car and much to cute kitty's chagrin, two more skateboarding boys were using the skate park. Also, by now Trizumi! was sitting in the driveway of my house wondering where I was and why that location was not where I said I would be. I said we were only a couple of minutes away and would meet him at Fry's. I checked my GPSr and figured I had time for one more new cache since it was kinda sorta on the way.
Arizona Tales: The Man Who Killed Santa Claus is a pretty straight-forward 1/1 and cute kitty went right in to retrieve it. Her pant got caught on a palm frond barb and I went into the bush-like trees to free her. She came out because she had enough of that garbage and I went in to grab the ammo can. I stood and received a puncture wound to the top of my forehead from one of those very sharp barbs. After backing out I touched my head and my hand was covered in blood. Blood started running down my face and I could see cute kitty staring at me with wide eyes. She was so good and did not panic at all, she went to the car and got a napkin so I could put a compress to the wound. She then wanted to call 911 but I had the phone. I was very proud of her reaction and told her how great she is! While waiting for the bleeding to stop I called Trizumi! to tell him since I had an injury I was running a little behind schedule. He was not impressed and asked why I has stopped for another cache when I knew he was waiting on me. No sympathy. When the bleeding stopped and I went back in to get the cache ;) We signed the log and went on our way to holiday shopping.

3200th Geocache Found
I'm not one to get all excited about milestone caches. I don't work toward a number goal by such and such a date or pick out some special cache to celebrate the find. I do however understand these milestones have significance to others, including my geocaching partner / boyfriend extraordinaire Trizumi!. So I hovered next to 3200 for a couple of days waiting around for him to come over last night.
Now normally Trizumi! refuses to cache at night but since it was a milestone cache to be sought he agreed to go. I picked my closest unfound cache, Twin Peaks, and off we went into the darkness with a promise to cute kitty of a Happy Meal. The cache is located in the parking lot of the Tilted Kilt in Tempe. Needless to say the place was packed :) A couple of guys were hanging about thier vehicle but I was sure I could provide adequate coverage with the sedan and pulled right up to ground zero. Trizumi! hopped out the passenger side and looked in the first obvious spot and then the second spot and there ya are: find #3200! (more about this cache later in this blog entry).
There happened to be another couple of new caches nearby and since I needed to check on my cache Desert Hummingbird, well.... why not go get those other new ones, huh?
So after checking on my cache (which was all good and fine - left a geocoin for the next finder) we
made the short drive down the street to Mac Hammer's Desert Breeze #1. Thankfully the soccer players were just leaving and Trizumi! was able to palm the cache and walk away without causing alarm. After signing the log, cute kitty and I distracted the nearby players while Trizumi! replaced the cache. I was glad to see more caches placed in Desert Breeze as it is one of my favorite parks. Next we went on to Snow Miser - Heat Miser where my GPS had me off into the bushes but after a minute we thought about better places it may be and Trizumi! went straight for it. Three for three! Not too shabby for someone who does not like night caching. Signed the log and then it was time to pay up on the promise of the chicken McNuggets. On the way to McDonald's Trizumi! said he knew I was going to stop by Man's Favorite Toy Shop (again) so there was no need to be coy about it. hee-hee. He knows me too well. One last cache of this quick night excursion to 3200.
Ok now about the Twin Peaks cache. After we got home and I was logging my finds. I find out our friend GeoRaptor was there too and didn't recognize us in the dark! Sorry we missed seeing him, here is his log on the cache.
Well, that's it for our night caching adventure and my milestone of 3200 caches found. Happy caching!

Power Caching?
Just what is the definition of "Power Caching" anyway?
I think my personal interpretation would be either:
1) a 16+ hour continuous hunt for mostly urban hides
OR
2) 100+ finds in a single geocaching session.
Anyway... running some queries for Palm Springs tomorrow.
