Geogearheads; The Weekly Show For Geocaching And Location-based Gaming

Listen to our interview with FluteFace of Marysville WA. Shortly after recording her interview, we had the chance to meet up with this flute player at Geowoodstock VI. During her interview she talked about how she didn't really get into Geocaching until she got her own GPSR. She's recently received a Garmin Colorado as a Valentine's Day gift and enjoys cache both with or without her family. Just like Firefly03 though, Flutey is really into Geocoins.

Listen to our interview with FrostG1anT of Alaska. His caching career began on Labor Day 2006 with a few of his friends who joined under the moniker OMGCrew. FrostG1anT enjoys puzzle caches, voluntary cache repair, and CITO. He has a preference for "Stale Caches" which have gone unfound for a month, finds them extra-compelling. SlatRat is another cacher that taught FrostG1anT to enjoy elegantly designed geocaches, such as The Death of Sherlock Holmes. One of FrostG1anT's favorite hides is Save the Cheerleader, Save the World. We also enjoyed a story of gbug66 and his private property cache -- The 466 Cache. When not actively engaged in Geocaching, FrostG1anT prefers to enjoy running and cultivating good relationships with land managers to further Geocaching in his area.Show Sponsor: Granite State Geocachers Community PodcastContent Rating: CleanDate Recorded: May 8, 2008Show Notes: bluedepth
