Current Goal

Lost Magellan wants to travel from cache to cache and ultimately visit some caches in Santa Clara, CA, the corporate home of Thales Navigation (Magellan). He would love to be found by geocachers who will take the time to figure out how to use him (users manual at (visit link) and make the effort to create a location fix in his memory of the cache or city he was either found in or left in. Photos would be wonderful too. If he can make it back to his starting point in a year ... well OK.

About This Item

Lost Magellan

This TB is an old (circa 1995) Magellan Trailblazer XL GPS given to me by a cousin. It appears to work, although V - E - R - Y - S - L - O - W - L - Y. Location 1 in his memory is the home town of Team H2. Have fun with him and help him along the way. Note: this is a rather large TB so keep that in mind when dropping him off.

Oops, looks like this one is lost. We will try to get him heading West again. Will print an information sheet with the TBs goals on it to include when we drop it off.

Found this while out west on business. This will travel back to Indiana with me. It'll really be lost then.

Thanks for the Bug.

Found this one today in Oregon. I'll wait a few days to see if it gets placed in the cache I found it in. It was at a rest area on I-85 on the east side of Oregon. It's officially going to be lost when I take it back home with me. That's the wrong way from it's goal but I didn't know the goal when I picked it up. It's on its way to Southeastern Indiana. Who knows maybe someone will pick it up on the way to California.

We borrowed rechargeable batteries from One Bad Ant and gave this thing two solid hours of sitting on the patio at the Reagle Beagle but the best it ever did was two satellites. I really want to try and find a cache with it, but we just couldn't get it to give us a fix.
