Geocache Description:

A meet-and-greet event for those geocachers who like to do things a little differently!


Let’s see if we can get warmer weather. Or just get some crazies back at it. It seems our area isn’t as crazed about the game as it used to be. Oh, sure. People still cache and attend events. But those who are crazed seemed to have dwindled.

Is there resurgence? Only time will tell!

So, one of the area’s most intriguing events returns. Welcome to the land where we do things just a tad differently. How, you may ask? Well, this event is kind of nuts, so to speak. There are some nutty geocachers out there, so it’s how it goes.

This event has morphed into a bunch of different things. It started with meeting at 1 a.m., then it got a little earlier, but still nutty. So… let’s try it here. I want to take this event to different spots and try it, so I figured this was as good of a time as any!

As with the others I’ve done, this is a simple no-frills meet-and-greet event.

In the past, here are our numbers:

  • 2012 (GC3YR3D - Oneonta, NY): 14
  • 2013 (GC4NK84 - Oneonta, NY): 18
  • 2014 (GC57QNK - Oneonta, NY): 7
  • 2015 (GC5TXDA - Hagerstown, MD): 101
  • 2016 (GC6HNCW - Oneonta, NY): 6
  • 2017 (Oneonta, NY): ??

I know we won’t topple what we did the one we took it on the road and did it at GeoWoodstock, but I think we can at least get to double digits again. Can’t we?

Here’s hoping for decent weather at least!

Please let us know you are coming. Hopefully it will be a fun and successful event. So why do this event?

Why not?

  • Have you ever stopped working on things to fly out the door for an FTF?
  • How many times have you decided one more… one more … one more … as it gets dark, and before you know it, it’s 10 p.m. or later?
  • And if you get the sweats when you go a week or two without a cache… well…
  • Have you ever been in the woods well past midnight, seeking that one cache?

If any of these fit you, you’ll likely enjoy this event.

This is a 1/1 event. There’s pavement. It’s not, however, simple for those who go to bed early!

Why?

It’s at 11 p.m.!

Let’s be honest, too, it’s not really kid friendly being the little ones should be in bed already. If you are asleep by 10, this isn’t for you, either. But if you are looking for a nightly fix… come to this event!

Time to see how many nutty folks will check it out.

Yes, your bed may be calling. And, yes, you may not want to come out.

But can you resist?

We’ll see you there.

Note: This is a normal meet-and-greet. No frills, no nothing. I'll be there, at a minimum, from 11 p.m.-11:30 p.m. Possibly a little longer, depending on who shows. But this event will run for a minimum of 30 minutes.
