TRAVEL BUGS and GEOCOINS:
While trackable items are at no more risk of going missing at an event than if they are left in a cache in the woods many owners of trackables prefer that their items do not attend events. Trackable items are not the responsibility of the event organizers, they are the responsibility of the person who drops them off and the person who picks them up. We recommend that you trade trackable items between individuals not by leaving them sit on a table at the event. That said, as always the event organizers will insure that no trackables are left at the restaurant.

WILL THERE BE SNOW?:
Over the history of this event we've had a foot of snow within 24 hours prior to the event twice, temperatures below zero once, an absolutely lovely day once, and the rest were a mixed bag of cold windy days. That's the point of the event, the worse the weather the better.

If you would like to help insure there will be snow and have a little fun along the way; share a photo of yourself, group or others having a snowball fight. I believe the snow ball fight theme was suggested by icedobe, if I'm incorrect please forgive me and put me straight.

Themes from years gone by include making Snow Angels, snow globe, snowman, and snow flake. Check out the web sites for fun snow making activities to keep you warm on those cold winter nights.
