Yesterday, we took Oscar and Mr Moo's parents on a hike in Forest Park. As always, we searched out a geocache. This time, we did a multi-cache, which involved finding several way-points to gather information before we could sort the final destination. Rather than calculating coordinates, each way-point had us calculate distance and navigational bearing to the next stop. This is a lot more difficult than it sounds. If your bearing is off the tiniest bit at the start, the further away you get the worse the error gets. Since we were in the forest, finding the first few weren't too bad because there aren't that many trails to choose from. At the end, however, we ended up in a large open area near a water tower and really struggled to pinpoint where we needed to be. We spent some time searching in a completely wrong area before we regrouped, recalculated and finally made the find. I was totally off my game yesterday and took almost no photos. I realized, when we got home, I didn't even take a photo of all of us together. Bad Moo. I will correct this next time we head out together. Here are a few I did manage: |
