Cache Across Maryland is a geocaching tour of Maryland. We have
placed 10 new traditional caches in various locations across the
"Old Line State". To attend this event, you must find all 10
caches. Each cache will give you a information that will be
important to finding the event location. Be aware that CAM
participants logged an average of 1000 miles in their trek around
the state last year. The ten CAM caches are generally rated about
2/2 on the "star scale". No special equipment will be needed to
find any of the caches.
You can see a list of each of the ten caches from the last three
years: 2004 CAM Caches , 2005 CAM Caches & 2006 CAM Caches
A method of decoding the final location will be given here as
the event nears. Place this event on your watch list to keep up
with changes.
The process for participating is as follows:
1. Go to the CAM registration
site (
click here) to register for CAM 2007.
You
do not need to be an MGS member to register for CAM.
An e-mail will be sent out to you with a link to the CAM
instructions and files to download. If you register prior to March
31, you will receive this information on March 31. If you register
after March 31, you will receive it immediately.
2. Find the ten caches placed
around the state. Each CAM 2007 cache contains a means of
verification--don't forget! Sign the cache's log book and make a
trade if you wish. Please refrain from leaving travel bugs in
CAM caches.
3. In early May, a decoding
key will be provided to allow you to determine the secret picnic
location, using your GeoPassport. This event site is somewhere in
Maryland.
4. Bring your favorite potluck
dish and your completed GeoPassport to the picnic on May 6th at
11:00 AM.
5. You may log the individual
CAM 2007 caches you have found, and this event, on or after the
picnic date of May 6th 2007. Feel free to join us in our
CAM Forums and share your experiences with
the cache hiders before that date.
