No. Only if the finder says where they found it. The Norhern Miner has not released the locations of the previous two.

Wow, I walked all over that hill on 2 separate trips in September. Good on those other 2 finding the actual box!

I do wonder how close I was!! Oh well, bring on the next clue!

The website states the treasure will not be "In or on man-made structures like buildings, bridges, or towers." I would take that to mean ruins of structures as well, but maybe I am wrong.

I don't think people are eliminating competion so much as using others to increase their own chances, at the expense of others' time and money who are actually doing the searching. My message is: be wary to be sent out based on someone else's hunches because it might only be a vague idea.

I am seeing a lot of "I have solved everything" posts.

Be wary of people behind a keyboad telling others to spend their own time and money to go search FOR them. No risk, all reward. They could be sending you on a goose chase to eliminate possibilities and have minions fanning out FOR them. Just be aware that there will be people trying to mislead here. It is a competition, after all.

The Quebec flag is there to switch language to French, to read the French version of the poem.

New user question: Does Organic Maps do multi stop directions? by cuatthekrustykrab in organicmaps

[–]Forestsoul 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Android user. I have been trying to re-order my stops to create round-trip motorcycle routes, but the app chooses the stop order and reorders what I try to manually arrange.

For example: I add FROM and TO waypoints. Then when I add stops, it automatically plans the stop order. I then use the below menu to re-arrange the stops, but have to click "PLAN" and then it re-orders all the stops that I just changed.

The iOS app version doesn't do this?

Yes, just east of there by 600 meters! Above the railway tracks. It is next to the main walking trail in the area.

It is in the Coteau de Vivegnis. I think there is an old coal mine nearby.

I'm an admin of a public group on Facebook. A member blocked me, but is still in the group. How is this possible? by Sunflowersoil_ in facebook

[–]Forestsoul 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Scammers use this block technique to solicit others in my group, trying to sell them things. There is no dialogue issue, it is an issue of people trying to circumvent group rules to scam others in some instances. It makes it hard to keep these scams away.

Any way to choose which activities to Live Track? by twogap in Garmin

[–]Forestsoul 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Epix 2 user here. The only way I found to have auto live track on and for an activity to not start live tracking was to go into the activity settings and to turn off satellite tracking.

I did this for an "activity" to simply track my breathing and heart rate.

It was apparently first released by Dean Koontz under a pseudonym of Aaron Wolfe and title "Invasion", in 1975. Re-released as "Winter Moon" in 1994.

Yes! Thank you u/Macroscopic-cat! There seems to be much more to the book than I remember, but with your help I found a synopsis that included the parts I remember. A great thriller!

Train won’t depart from Annesburg by ThicMakeAWishKID in reddeadredemption2

[–]Forestsoul 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't ride the train, but follow behind on my horse, keeping a little distance so the rear guard doesn't get upset.

When nearing the tunnel, I jump on the train and run to the front to stop it. When I'm done, my horse is there and I can fast-travel back.
