I quit caching alone when I did an unplanned solo walk to rock pile mountain. No one knew I was there. It occurred to on the way back that if I slipped and sprained my pancreas or something, NO ONE would find me for a very long time. Now I do such things with RGS. People can then find two old farts lost in the woods. :-) Glenn Via iP-4s On Jul 12, 2012, at 10:30 AM, "Mike Griffin" <brawnybear@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: I read that a few days ago. What was amazing is the police didn’t really get involved until they found his car.. That’s why it is best to cache with someone. Remember the guy in San Antonio who went for his first cache and slipped into a creek. He couldn’t get out because the banks were too steep and died of exposure. If someone would have been with him, he would still be caching today. Remember when Mean Gene fell off the cliff at St. Francois state park? He had Rolsch with him but who knows what would have happened had he been on his own.. Always cache with someone if you can… Thanks!
