So there it was, placed om 3. May 2000 waiting for the world to see. The day before GPS became more precise. David Ulmer thought on how to test it. An idea appeared. Hide stuff, post coordinates and see what happened. The original message was posted on sci.geo.satellite-nav .
Sure it wasnt like geocaching these days. But the princip is the same. Find it with a gps, sign log, sign net log, trade up, be happy.
As the original box this also contains trade stuff.
Included are
Topo Norway Map from Openstreetmap. Open source
Stick clean
I love geocaching pen
Suitcacase tag
Keychain
Carabine hook
some cash
Obviously no food or weapon
The original content for Stash hunt #1
Well, I did it, created the first stash hunt stash and here are
the coordinates:
N 45 17.460
W122 24.800
Lots of goodies for the finders. Look for a black plastic bucket
buried most of the way in the ground. Take some stuff, leave
some stuff! Record it all in the log book. Have Fun!
Stash contians: Delorme Topo USA software, videos, books, food,
money, and a slingshot!
