Geocache Description:

HMM HID THE CACHE IN JUNE SO.. DON'T REMEMBER THE HIDE.. MAYBE THOSE THAT FIND IT CAN SUGGEST A HINT

Are you new to geocaching and wonder how those people get out and find those new caches so fast. Or how do people know when there is an event occurring in your area? Or are you getting notices about traditional caches but not hearing about events? Well this puzzle just might help you.

N 43° 14.ABC W 071° 39.DEF


A=The best place to start looking for access to events/new cache listings is to click on:

Your Profile=2
Play =3
Community=4

B= If you have only a basic membership, the only way to learn about events in the state and new cache releases, is to:

Click on build a pocket query =2
Set up Notifications=3
List newest in New Hampshire=4 (the negative of newest in NH is that if a cache was hidden a week or so ago, it might be on page two when it finally gets published and you will miss FTF again.

C= In order to use the functions of pocket query and notifications you need to be a premium member?
1=yes 2=no


D=For premium members it is easiest and fastest to learn about new cache releases and events by:
Checking Newest in New Hampshire=8
Setting Notifications =9

E=If I set up a notification for a traditional cache will I get an email when a new event is listed?

0=No 1=Yes

F= Can you set up multiple notifications? For example if you want to know about traditional that are released within 5 miles of homes and events listed within 40 miles of home? 0=Yes 1=No

Basically you want to set up your notifications at whatever distance you think would be helpful to you. You may want to have event notifications further from home since if you look at events through the NEAREST to home button only lists those in your state and you might be willing to travel to another state for an event.

I hope this was helpful.
