Were you on the playa in 2009? If so, did you find the hidden herring?

Using a metal detector to pinpoint the exact location was flawed by other things setting it off in the GPS location.

I'll be tasting herring in the Netherlands in May. Also visiting Denmark, Sweden, Finland, Estonia, Germany and Russia. Hmmm - looks like we're missing Norway.

Estonia was a really great place when I was there.........do you have much time there, or, just port call in Tallinn?

Current plans are to spend ten days in the Netherlands and then meet some friends from Florida and we'll take a 12 day Baltic cruise. I want to snag a least one geocache in each port if possible.

Yup! I was on the playa this year. Located the area with my GPS. Used a metal detector to pinpoint the exact location, but had to give it up that day due to the heat. Wanted to go back another day, but all of the sudden the time run out. If it's inside the perimeter and not under someones camp, it will be retrieved in 2010.

I'm sure you're gonna have a great time! I try to get at least one geocache in each country I visit. Good luck, Geospyder! Did you find any of the Black Rock Beacon geocoins at Burning Man this year? I found one, and it's just beautiful!

We need to practice panicking. Can we arrange a time for us all together and work on our panicking skills? It's no good unless we do it right.

Didn't find one of the coins :-( But we did gift out over 300 path tags -

Unfortunately I forgot to keep one for myself :-(

We'll have more made up for next year and I will set one aside before we go :-)

Yes. No. Even the herrings (or their one member delegation) could not find their dry brethren.

Everyone needs to know that the Herrings highly encourage freedom from clothing.
