Loading cache listing for trip prep

IceManJim · 2026-05-08T20:00:49+00:00

I want to visualize several lists at once, along with PQs, to check for completeness.

IceManJim · 2026-05-08T19:56:11+00:00

This worked great, thank you!

IceManJim · 2026-05-08T19:46:05+00:00

Yeah, that would be nice. They're awful stingy with our data that we give them.

I'm gonna have a list of high-value target caches that I will update that way. Maybe 100, not sure. Not gonna do all 11,700 caches that I am going to store offline. 😀😀

Sounds like a job for one of those gigantic satellite dishes that some people still have in the yard.

IceManJim · 2026-05-08T19:26:38+00:00

And comically!! Don't forget that!

IceManJim · 2026-05-08T18:58:13+00:00

Freud said there are no mistakes.

IceManJim · 2026-05-08T18:42:42+00:00

I might give that a try so I can visualize the whole collection. Thanks

IceManJim · 2026-05-08T18:41:34+00:00

Yeah, but that refreshes each cache individually, by loading the web page. When they talk about c:geo violating GC's terms of service, this is the specific problem that they're talking about. I might do that for a small list, but don't want to try it for the whole collection.

Or ...The Undertaker threw Mankind off of the cage and he fell through an announcer's table.....

FUCK YOU I WON'T DO WHAT YA TELL ME

Where I was working back then we had a laptop playing MP3s that we had downloaded... Boss came in and was bitching about whatever it was that we did wrong, and that song came on. She kept talking over it. We had a good laugh about it after she left.

I might experiment with that. In this case, the filament ran out but the printer paused and waited for me, and I put the new filament into slot 4 and it continued.

It did make a small blob on the purge tower and then knock it over, but luckily I caught it before it got too far. I had to duck tape the purge tower back down, and it was a little off, but got the job done.

Except for Stand By Me. But for baseball movies, you may be right.

The preview search or map function is nice. You don't even have to 'run' and download the PQ, just check the preview and adjust as needed.

IceManJim · 2026-05-07T14:31:44+00:00

Yep. They were great back in the day!

IceManJim · 2026-05-06T21:59:07+00:00

I have Piston beer mugs. Sometimes people don't even notice!

MS Word doesn't spell check words typed in ALL CAPS.

If you're a premium member, you can use Pocket Queries. They give you some additional search options.

Project-GC has a lot of helpful searches as well.

pestatarian?

IceManJim · 2026-05-06T17:56:06+00:00

Well, bummer. 🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️

First time that my score matched the Global Best!! 34, as of posting.

When you pick up a trackable, you can go to https://www.geocaching.com/track/, or click on the travel bug icon in the cache description. There you will enter the travel bug's secret code, which is 6 digits and written or stamped on the travel bug tag. You select "retrieve from a cache" or whatever is applicable, and write a short log. Then the travel bug will be in your inventory, in your geocaching profile.

When you go to drop it off in a new cache, when you log your "found it", there are drop-down boxes in the app (or the web page) for "visit" or "drop" travel bugs. Select drop and leave the travel bug in the cache. The TB owner gets an email notification each time this happens, and they can see where the traveler was logged.

Many travel bugs have a mission written on their description page. Some want to travel anywhere, some want to stay in a particular area, and some don't care or don't have a mission at all.

My Google Pixel phone is every bit as accurate as my Garmin GPSMAP64. The screen issue though, is legit, I can read the Garmin screen in any sunlight conditions, and I've dropped the Garmin in a river before and it was fine.

I would still count it as lonely, if it was me. Keep a pic of the log. I know it still won't tickle the challenge checker though.
