Geocache Description:


One of the things I have always enjoyed asking cachers when I meet them is how they decided on their geocaching name or geonick.

What is the genesis of your geonick?

Since the current cache guidelines do not allow for ALR's (additional logging requirments), I am not allowed to require you to answer this question before logging this cache.

What I would like to ask is that you include the story of how you decided on your geocaching name in your log so that we can all enjoy the stories.

I will start - I have been know as gearguru for a very long time, it is a nickname that I picked up while working at locally based outdoor store when I lived in the Bay Area. It was a part time job for me while I also worked a full time job, so I ended up buying a lot of gear, so I enjoyed learning about all of the different gear that we sold hence the nickname gearguru!
