31 Days of Geocaching
Groundspeak is promoting the "31 Days of Geocaching" throughout the month of August, 2013. Each geocacher who logs a "found" or "attended" during the month of August will receive a special souvenir on his/her geocaching profile. For more information regarding the promotion, please check out this link.
In honor of this promotion, I am placing some new geocaches. Hopefully it will assist in getting some of the local cachers out and about.
The final for this cache is will be an easy park & grab for some; for others it might be tough. Being this is a tiny container, please use only your initials when signing the log. If you're with a large group, feel free to use a group signature, but also annotate in your log what name was put on the log and who all should be part of the group. To locate the final, answer these questions:
- 1.) How many GPS satellites were there in the year 2000 when the "blue switch" was pressed?
- 2.) Who first coined the term "geocaching"?
- 3.) Geocaching was termed the "Great American GPS Stash Hunt" by whom?
- 4.) Who originally created the website geocaching.com, hosting it on his home DSL line?
- 5.) The term for a person who work at Groundspeak .
- 6.) Who did the person in question #4 partner with to form Groundspeak Inc (originally called "Grounded Inc.")?
The final is hidden at N 33° 24.ABC W 082° 01.DEF
