THE LISTED COORDINATES
ARE INVALID!
Cache Across Maryland is a
geocaching tour of Maryland. We have placed 10 new geocaches in
various locations across the "Old Line State". To attend this
event, you must find all 10 caches, each cache will give you
information that will be important to finding the event location.
Be aware that CAM participants logged an average of 1000 miles on
their trek around the state last year.
The ten CAM caches are
generally rated about 2/2 on the "star scale". No special
equipment will be needed to find any of the caches.
You can see a list of each
of the ten caches from the last six years: 2004 CAM Caches, 2005 CAM Caches, 2006 CAM Caches, 2007 CAM Caches, 2008 CAM Caches, 2009 CAM Caches and 2010 CAM Caches
A method of decoding the
final location will be given here as the event nears. Place this
event on your watch list to keep up with changes.
The process for
participating is as follows:
1. You do not need to be an
MGS member to participate in CAM, the CAM Caches will be posted to
the MGS Forums around 06:00 AM March 19th, this is the
only place to find the information until the caches are published
to the general geocaching community on or after May 7th.
2. Find the ten caches
placed around the state, each CAM 2011 cache contains a means of
verification--don't forget! Sign the cache's log book and make a
trade if you wish. Please refrain from leaving travel bugs in
CAM caches.
3. The last week of April, a
decoder will be provided to allow you to determine the secret
picnic location using your GeoPassport. The event site is somewhere
in Maryland.
4. Bring your favorite
potluck dish and your completed GeoPassport to the picnic on
Saturday, May 7th at 11:00 AM.
5. You may log the
individual CAM 2011 caches you have found, and this event, on or
after the picnic date of May 7, 2011. Feel free to join us in our
CAM Forums and share your experiences with the cache hiders before
that date.
