I have been caching since 2001. Recently I was reflecting on those cachers that have had a significant part of my caching journey.
cvSCRAT was a caching partner for a couple of years or so. He is a great puzzle solver and helped me get interested in at least trying puzzles that I thought were impossible. He has also hidden some cool puzzles (ones I can solve). He is also into different types of challenges and I went along to get a few qualifying caches for different challenges and quickly became interested myself. He is also a very avid hiker and will go for a cache virtually anywhere.
So my thanks to you cvSCRAT.
