I am taking the grand kids to a free snow day today. Hope to get some snowshoeing in. Will upload some geocaches to GPS. I love the Beautiful scenery in the video. This is the day the Lord made.
I prefer caching in the winter. No bugs, no bushwhacking, no sweating, and lots of times I can follow someone else's footprints to the cache. I tend to have a higher rate of DNF's in the winter though. I get about 25 caches a week in the summer, about 15 a week in the winter. Right now there's 2 foot of snow on the ground. As soon as the sun comes up, I'll be out caching in it!
Caching in the snow is alot easier then in warm summer days, why? cause there are other peoples footsteps that lead you to where the cache is hidden!!! haha. I think I've found about 15 caches this Winter. Stop being lazy and get out there!!!!
Geocaching is quite complicated during winter because even 1 star terrain caches can be very difficult to find if they are 50 cm under snow. On the other hand, you can see the trails of previous cachers.
Heh... In my part of Norway, the snow is usually not the pressing issure. It have a tendency to snow about 6", then get just above freezing, letting the snow collapse and then it gets cold again making a think layer of ice, and then a light coating of fluffy dry snow on top... The problem is that either you can't get up a hill, or you go down a hill waay faster than intended with no controll whatsoever...
But finally the snow is gone now so Im going geocaching this weekend!
Snow caching is some of the toughest.
