Paseo Rd, East Colorado Springs, Colorado Springs, CO, US

Claimed by Colorado Cacher 2 years 10 months ago (4h 15m 13s since publication)

How not to find a UFO: 1. Punch in the wrong numbers. Return home sad. 2. Refresh UFO status to see if you still have a chance of 1 in 1000%. 3. Look at the tv, and see, "Youtube, never stop searching". 4. Redo the numbers, jolt back out the door. 5. Be totally amazed that you found a UFO.

I got Sylvester to drop me off at parking. First time for me at this very cool hiking trail. Grabbed the tag and pulled a couple of poky things out of my four paws. Very careful heading back to parking.I don’t know much about Geocaching? It’s just sign the log and don’t take the container? What fun is that? Thank you!

Cpl Max Donahue Ln, Westridge, Highlands Ranch, CO, US

Claimed by Dtvman 2 years 9 months ago (8h 36m 33s since publication)

This one showed up while I still had several hours of work left. Was very happy as I walked out the door and saw it hadn’t been claimed yet. When I got to the location, I checked a few wrong spots before I finally got the right one. Unfortunately the little flying neighbors didn’t want to give up their friend and left me with a nasty sting on my first attempt. I grabbed some gloves from the car and quickly snatched the container on my second attempt while avoiding another sting. All in all an exciting adventure. Thanks for the hide and the stand.

Claimed by H2SG2 2 years 8 months ago (2h 16m 20s since publication)

I couldn’t believe when I looked and saw that Ol’ Blue hadn’t been rescued yet. I was a little scared to go out and run across the aliens, but I knew with the fire station right there I could run to safety if I needed to. Hopped in my car and within five minutes Ol’ Blue was safe and sound with me, with no attacks on the horizon. Got out of there really quickly, though! Just in case! 😉

Seeing this UFO fly into my inbox early this morning had me ready for take off, but seeing that it was all the way in Williamson (close to East of Brussels) had me lay back down on my pillow. Fast-forward 2 hours, the "cow" was still not found and I just couldn't help myself. Hopped into my UFO Interceptor and raced to GZ. Having cached in this park just one week ago, I knew where I was headed. Was thrilled to find this beautiful bovine as a host to the "snag the tag"! at 11:11am. Looking forward to my UFO to come pick me up. Thanks for hiding this Tag!

As the aliens cruised up Highway 50 in search of cows, they found one lonely cow, Watson standing at the top of the hill staring at the beautiful American flag. When the aliens started to beam Watson aboard, they hit the wrong button and shrunk everyone instead! Now they are stuck amongst the rocks waiting for help.

NJ-15, Sparta Township, NJ, US

Claimed by Chrmdome 2 years 9 months ago (1h 46m 32s since publication)

Betsy has been saved!! Looks like she jumped out of fire and into the frying pan. Fortunately, decided to go vegan for the day and Betsy was saved. What a great adventure getting to this spot. My first approach was thwarted by a 50’ cliff, which pushed me toward the exit rant where I made a good approach. I even four the rope that was left behind to assist with the climb! What’s up with all these pots?? Definitely worth a trip even if Betsy has alreybeen saved. And, as an added bonus, there was a geocache nearby!! Best placement ever!!

Blue Beam: 065 - UFO Banking

Springhurst Blvd, Louisville, KY, US

Claimed by shgrider 2 years 8 months ago (47m 37s since publication)

Well it wasn't the usual Pot Head day, the pot of coffee gathering that we usually have, but I still was in this end of town, so why not take a slight detour to a familiar area. You would think that this place would be too active for any sort of sighting, but I had no problem locating what was left behind. But now I'm a little worried, because I didn't see the friend when I was taking the picture of what I found, so I hope he stayed or went back home and isn't coming along with me for my day.

Claimed by Aix sponsa 2 years 9 months ago (19d 13h 26m 20s since publication)

Let's just say the true finder of this tag passed it on to me after he heard that I had swung into Remer well out of my way to find it. I didn't tell him I was there at least 20 minutes looking for it. He apologetically mentioned that he hadn't claimed it. We dickered back and forth about who should have it. He said me and I said he. In the end he kindly gave it to me. If anyone else is watching this one - it is claimed. Not a coin like I was expecting. It is the plastic 1" chip pictured. Some days it is tough being a cow.

It’s got rigor mortis” (JC) “What’s this little blue cow chip I found over here under its hoof?” (photo) (DC) “Dunno… How’d you lift up that giant beast?” (JC) “EZ PZ. It was starting to be levitated by a traction beam or something” (DC) “No worries. (…as the big cow continues its upward assent…) That bovine is a goner. Let’s take that cow chip to Harlan’s or Ross’s or Texas Roadhouse. Maybe we can trade it in for a Rib-Eye, T-Bone, or N.Y. Strip and get some eggs and hash browns to go with it!” (JC) “Perfect! Hope they have A1 Sauce. Let’s roll!” Thanks so much for the adventure and the chase! (Too bad about that big ole cow though! 🐮😂🤣)

It's our anniversary today. What a great way to start the week by taking a quick jaunt to the ice cream shop to look for strange lights. Turns out that Zesto sign is an alien spacecraft in disguise (albeit not a very good one), that collects cows from the nearby pastures overnight & drops them off here to make fresh dairy treats. Freed one that was caught in an eerie blue beam.

What a fun find!! The clue was a drone video of the spot of the abduction, with a set of coords at a nearby landmark. The poor cow couldn’t have seen the UFO through the foliage, and the rest is history. I added another level of difficulty by waiting until we had our first snow accumulation of the year to attempt the find. It all added up to a very fun adventure!

This was a fun 1 to get. Tried 1st thing yesterday and ended up on someone's property with a bunch of animals. Luckily I think there was no one home! But we new it was in a cemetery so we went back out looking in random cemeteries hoping to stumble upon the awesome stone. No such luck. Then late last night the actual cords were posted. Seeing that 3 people were watching this tag made me think there is no way we are going to get it. At last we head out and google decides to take us somewhere else completely. Thinking we are not meant for this one we head back on course. Pull up as another car is approaching. Luckily they were just waiting on us to pass. We pulled in and ran over to finally have this little bugger in hand! Thanks so much for the adventure.

I started in Golden and grabbed a first to find and then I made my way to 70 and headed west. I picked up some jasmer cells along the way and I came down 24. I got so excited and antsy as I got closer to this location and I actually decided to pass up one of the geocaches I had on my route that would give me another jasmer cell because the sun was high and I didn't want this one getting snagged from underneath my nose while I was out hunting a geocache. I arrived on site around 9:00 AM. I had grabbed the FTF in Golden at 3:15 AM. It was still quite cold when I grabbed this. Though, you can tell by the way I'm squinting in the photograph that the sun was shining brightly.

Blue Beam: 300 - Hiding in a herd of blue

Hopewell Way NE, Northeast Calgary, Calgary, AB, CA

Claimed by Bigkid05 2 years 9 months ago (1h 22m 45s since publication)

I had a few days off as ICCAN had just arrived from the UK, sat in the hotel having breakfast at the best seat in the house (window looking at a bank) and the notification came in of a sighting in the far north. I looked at my partner and she seemed keen to finish her yogurt so I said my goodbye and hot footed it out of the door. Tracking device in hand I headed to my transportation unit and made my way along the deerfoot trail. (This was a bad idea) As I approached the area of the sighting I spotted signs that gave me a clue (and a laugh) of where I should be and I quickly spotted the herd. These must be a local breed as I've never seen a blue moo before. A lady was sat in her unit just doing nothing only feet from where I needed to be so it was a case of bide my time or go bold as brass. I noticed someone had recently watched the tag online so bold as brass it was. Oh no! I can't find it, aarrgh now I look totally crazy. Turns out I wasn't looking the right side lol With Watson in hand I shall return to see if I can finish my breakfast. To the hider thank you for a fun adventure. Happy snagging folks.

From 1913 to 2000 this site was a major stock selling yard for South Australia and the Northern Territory. The sculpture of a stockman on horseback that was placed here commemorates the 87 years of the Gepps Cross Sale Yards and its workers at this site. Well it looks as though those pesky Aliens have been up to no good because the sculpture has gone and Watson the Cow has been left in its place. So now Watson needs to be rescued and hopefully the Aliens will return the sculpture.

It was a little drizzly as I left work, having spotted that this tag was available. Hoping that no other rescue mission had been successful, I headed straight to the noted location. On my arrival, there was a guard keeping an eye out - at least I thought that’s what he was doing. It turned out to be an employee of a nearby medial retrieval organisation on a break. Lucky for me!! Before too long he had left and I was able to safely rescue the little blue triangle.

Will update shortly Apologies for the delay in updating. Saturday morning I dropped my Teenagers off to visit their terminally ill dad and planned to stay local in case I was needed however saw that a couple of new tags had been published one of which looked to be in a familiar location. I picked up the other half and headed north. It should have been an hour's drive but traffic made it a little longer, I could have done with some sort of teleportation device really. My satnav seemed to receive some sort of interference and took me to a location 1.5km away and told me to walk! I refused and resorted to looking at the (online ) map...nice and easy to relocate. Pulled up to find a car sat in the layby with someone tapping on their phone ...fearing the worst I decided to check anyway and made a nice easy find to complete my set. Many thanks for placing, it really is appreciated..

Claimed by TheSpecialAgents 2 years 9 months ago (38m 28s since publication)

I was sitting here on the computer and doing the post and getting everything ready to be sent, when a notification popped up on the screen. A blu UFO had gone live and it was about 25 mins from where i live! As I have mentioned, and for those that missed it, I messed the order for the UFO's up. So when the order was placed I missed myself in the count. I bought a supporters but forgot the most important two. this was missed until the arrival of the coins and it dawned on me i had no hiders kits. So I was left with finding for this game. But i will be making that up to all of you with the witches with a few extra hiders packs for a lucky few! I digress, So after the alert had pinged, I was quickly out the door and in the car! I even grabbed a blue ufo coin just in case another tagger was at GZ and had beaten me to it! I was soon at GZ and after tackling what can only be described as the worst junction ever i had parked up and the hunt was on. I looked around the various signage but to no avail. The hint was glaringly obvious but I had already glanced over and checked the left hand side of the green box but omitted the right side! I then went hunting elsewhere before realising that i had not checked the right side. I went back to the green box and had another look. Normally these boxes are metal and so i was expecting it to be stuck to the top edge, but this was plastic. So after a brief glance closer to the floor, i spied the little camo box! back at the car i opened it and the tag was revealed! I am so pleased i have been able to locate both of these and now the full set. Now the journey home and the post office run.

How now blue cow, where are you? I noted the publication of this tag last Friday, but decided to avoid travelling to claim it as I expected it would be snapped up fast. After a busy weekend I noticed it was still unclaimed this morning and so decided to launch for recovery. When I arrived at the co-ords and checked the hiding place, I found nothing, damn to late! However, once my disappointment had subsided I looked slightly further afield and spied a small black box amongst the flotsam below the sign. The cow had jumped off of the sign and I was over the moon. My thanks to the hider.

I had to U-turn back past the cows who blocked the road at one point, how apt! Perhaps they had been beamed up earlier and were now trying to thwart my mission!? Eventually with the Satnav reprogrammed I made it to my destination. There was already a car at the parking spot!! I made my way to the stone and then to the hint item, where I found a stone, with nothing under it, damn I thought I've missed it, I looked round other trees just to be sure. I then noticed another photo on the description and sure enough behind another stone at the original tree was the Tag! Thanks for hiding so please to find this one, after such a long trip. :-)

Claimed by dixie_gooner 2 years 9 months ago (2h 28m 48s since publication)

I woke this morning to a distress call from Watson and decided to moove myself in that direction. I arrived at the no moo chocolate factory and headed in the correct direction. There were many yellow ears sighted along my route. But it was the faint sound of a gavel dropping that told me that I was in the right place.

How strange! We were over this neck of the woods only this week and didn't see anything out of the ordinary but saying that we weren't on the look out for any extra-terrestrial cow activity. We were at the local drinking establishment enjoying a few beverages that evening. In came a local and he was chatting at the bar and we over heard him telling the barman that he saw the weirdest thing while walking around the reservoir for his early evening walk. He said it was a bright blue light over the water!! We didn't get anymore information than that but knew something was about to happen it was just a matter of time now. The morning after it all made sense we had not one but two blue beams within an hour of HQ. unfortunately we couldn't help either of the cows that day but we kept an eye. We made an early dash to go and save Watson this morning, as we had the whole Gang we only had room in the car for one cow so took the one closest to HQ, hopefully the other will be saved soon!? Found no problem by the Kids, although it took a little explaining why it was not a cow, hence a few disgruntled faces in the photo haha. Thanks for the mission.


Blue Beam: 504 - Cowmander Watson where are you?

England, GB

Claimed by LancelotsLädy 2 years 9 months ago (3h 50m 33s since publication)

After hearing the distress call this morning I set to work narrowing down the location. After a bit of head scratching (due to being still half asleep!) the location was confirmed. Off we set going out journey would result in a successful recovery we made slow progress due to being limited to ground transport due to poor flying conditions. After a quick but soggy search the COW was located and packed into the transport unit to undergo debriefing and drying. Time for a stop on the way back to HQ to submit this report and get some food.


Blue Beam: 506 - I say, Watson, it's a cow!

Watson St, Deansgate, Manchester, England, GB

Claimed by Hitman9956 2 years 9 months ago (5d 2h 11m 23s since publication)

I was at a Geocaching CITO event down the road from Caernarfon in North Wales, when one of the kind souls mentioned about a tag in Manchester. Despite being stuck for 2 hours on the way back due to junction 12 being closed, I was determined to go for this having known that this was about 20-25 minutes walking distance from my workplace. Given the delay noted above, I arrived around 8.30pm in the evening, and was soon asked for change, to which I politely declined. I wearily made my way to Deansgate hoping this would still be here. Once I found the cow, it was time for the hiding place, so I used the photos to bring me to GZ - only to spot night life in full swing. Convinced as to where to search, I used a quick torch without success, then started feeling around - only to spot four youngsters frozen staring at me as to wonder who is this weirdo at night fondling a pipe. I waited until they went to resume my groping, and soon felt plastic and out came the tag. I was giddy with excitement, and thrilled to have plucked out my very first tag and a blue beam one to boot. Now that orange beam in Coldstream sounds very tempting........ Thank you so much for this - it's made my weekend! Mooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!

I woke up this morning to my 7am alarm as always, and after checking the boys were up and getting ready for school, I checked my phone and spotted a notification for a tag. A quick check of the email revealed it was only a few miles away and in a location I was familiar with. After a couple of seconds considering it, I was off upstairs to get dressed - my shower can wait. After a not so patient wait, it was time for the boys to go catch their bus and I followed them out of the door, car keys in hand. Traffic was on my side for once and after a couple of minutes of delay at the start of my journey, I soon left the traffic behind and I was on my way and arriving at the parking. There was another car already there and he was just getting in. A quick assessment and I didn’t think he looked like a threat and a quick glance at the tag page showed it hadn’t been claimed. I set off on foot for the final part of my journey, enjoying a lovely walk in the morning sunshine whilst regretting not bringing a hat! Arrived at the location in question and after checking the page again, I started my brief search - container located, but was it empty or did it contain my reward? Phew! There was the tag! Mission complete! Thank you!

Tylewood, England, GB

Claimed by Thallams 2 years 9 months ago (3h 43m 20s since publication)

It’s been a hectic week so was planning a day of R&R but I rose to see a Tag was finally published within in my reach. The dogs and hubby was quickly packed into the car for the 45 min drive nervously checking to see if it was still available on route. I was expecting it to be a longer walk but could see the cattle grid and lots of cows from the car park. I had a quick look at the top of the sign and some man thought I was trying to work out the gate. He opened it for us and being to polite to say anything we went through and then quickly spied it from the other side. This moo cow has been rescued! Great place to hide this tag, we have never been here before so enjoyed a rather hilly walk afterwards picking up a few caches along the way. Thank you for the tag!

Claimed by Weewere 2 years 9 months ago (56m 11s since publication)

Whilst still deep in slumber I awake to the flashing distress beacon light, knowing that all the ART members allowed to control the ships and collect fellow aliens are off on some holiday, I decided to see what was so important. I am not supposed to enter the control room as only a cleaner but something told me I must. So in I went, I pressed the the button below the blinking light and to my horror a fellow friend of mine had been put it a dangerous situation, those stupid ART people not doing their jobs again (so much for the more advanced species) So off I rushed to grab my mini snagger we would rescue this poor friend and bring her home. I had seen how they programmed the ships and I knew how to beam them up that’s easy, the hard bit was disguising the ship and us as these human things. After a couple of zaps in the molecule altering tube we got it and zipped off onto the sky, WE ARE COMING!! After what seemed a life time we arrived at the beacons destination this wet stuff falling from the sky was horrid and made me very cold, I looked and at first Watson was nowhere to be found 😱 Oh no she had been taken by those things and put in one of those boxes, a quick look lower and in a more secluded bit I found her shivering and wet the relief on her face was priceless she had been through a lot. I changed her back into her true form and off we flew back home safe and sound. Well until ART find out what I did anyway 😬 …..

I had lost all hope of being part of this game which would have been the first since I started playing but on the last day. I woke up and ran straight in to see me partner and asked why I was out of bed and I was meant to be resting before travelling later today. All I said was TAG, he understood and told me to drive safe. On the drive I managed to get caught in 3 traffic jams. As I get 5 minutes from the location the heavens opened. Myself always putting comfort over function didn't have shoes or a coat that could handle rain. Thankfully the tag was close to were I parked so with very wet feet I had secured the tag. Thank you hider

So being a hider of Orange. I’ve been waiting for a Blue Watson to appear in the South West to no avail! With the deadline approaching I asked a caching friend to go hunt this one for me as I knew she was in the area. She was happy to attend as there was a nearby cache she didn’t have. After rescuing Marvel she then happily went to rescue Murve for me. She also asked the nearby spa hotel if she could park in their car park and they very helpfully said she could so Thank you to them too for allowing her to park for free. I’m over the moo-n to be adding a Blue UFO to complete my collection. Thanks to my caching friend for her willingness to go and retrieve the tag. I definitely owe her some wine!

It all made sense, checking my beam radar I noticed one needed help. And luckily not far off my plotted journey home. Arrived in good time & no-one around, blinked & a whole herd of humans had gathered to read the info! We held back & as soon as they had dispersed zoomed in & got our blue beam.

Claimed by TheCases 2 years 8 months ago (19h 18m 55s since publication)

Watson, an alien from Jupiter’s moon Europa, has been living on Earth for the last 5 years disguised as a Belted Galloway cow - studying the indigenous life forms for his post-graduate thesis. The time has now come for submission of his results to the senior academics and so he has ignited his homing beam with the intention of catching the attention of Dentrassi cooks on a passing Vogon ship. It is vital to the survival of all life on Earth that this beam be extinguished before its presence is detected by the Vogons, who will delight in eliminating our planet to make room for an extra lane in the nearby hyperspace express route! Please hurry - Watson is lurking beneath the northern end of the most mossy-covered rock … 4th or 5th along the line from the gateway.

Mr & Mrs Ed2Ed were in need of a bit of cheering up today and when we woke to discover a cow in need of rescue from the clutches of aliens not too far away we mounted a rescue mission. This was the first one that popped up anywhere within striking distance so we braved the fog before breakfast and approached the abduction site Mulder and Scully style. No need to mark the road with a spray can here as Watson's trail was well signposted and we were able to extract him from the alien beam in the nick of time. Thanks so much to the hider for the early morning fun. One more bovine saved from intergalactic clutches.

Claimed by palmer28 2 years 8 months ago (6h 8m 15s since publication)

We were on our way back from an epic weekend in ryoland and saw this one go live! We still had to eat and find a few more caches so suspected another alien would swoop into pick up the goods in the meantime! We thought we saw strange lights over Royston earlier in the day but it turned out to be an almighty thunder storm! False alarm! Our journey back into Suffolk was hampered by a suspected flying saucer that had taken out a tree on a dual carriageway! A 40 minute wait ensued but highway maintenance dispatched Mulder and Scully to clear the fallen debris for further investigation! The smoke of BSE was then in sight and we knew we were drawing close. The lane was particularly busy this evening but thankfully we had the head torch with us and thanks to the helpful pictures/hint, the strange lights were soon located! A massive thank you to the tag placer. It certainly brightened up our journey home (especially after the delays!)

This morning I awoke to find and e-mail from Snag The Tag, first time this had ever happened. I had plans for later, but could not resist a trip up Pale hill in Delamere. Parked at Yeld car park and reached the top after a miles walk at 8:30am. Then the fun began. Searched around the summit stones but nothing. Noticed the picture, but could not see it from here. Then on reading Daisy’s story I decided to follow in her hoof prints. That worked and I found the tag at 8:50am, my first! Now to get back to the safety of the car without being abducted by aliens!

Boy did I make a mess of snagging this one! I wonder if the aliens were using some type of anti-cow-detection force. My son needed to work on homework tonight after his theater practice. So, when this posted I couldn't resist mooving into action. Unfortunately, I made an udder fool of myself in the pursuit. The choice of location ties in with this well. I just hadn't bothered to take a close enough look at the map before I headed out. Instead, I just pulled it up on Google Maps and let the navigator guide me. For some reason it seemed like I kept on missing the mark once I entered the parking lot of Colorado Mills. I did initially enter into the correct section of parking lots, but then proceeded to drive around in circles and back out onto Indiana and onto Colfax heading West. I did a moo-turn back onto Colfax East and then made my way right back into the area I already was. The insanity wasn't over, though, because I still got myself into the wrong parking lot. I decided to get out and just hoof it the rest of the way. Once I was out of the car I had the face-palm moment of seeing the restaurant lot where this surely had to be hidden. But, I still walked past the proper host and inspected a different one first. I appreciate the generosity of the hider for providing the landing pad. Moochas grassias.

This morning was planned. I looked at waiting this morning for some vent cleaning company to show up later this morning. I planned to sleep in a little, shower, have me a good homemade breakfast, and wait for the cleaners and maybe heading into the office for some catching up. Well, I did sleep in a little. I got up around 7:40. First thing, I check my phone for messages. I received a text from Lee of NF5 of a recent notification of a nearby Snag. This text was 30 minutes old. I thought about my planned day for about a minute. Well, this day is changing immediate!! I jumped into the shower and dressed me up. I texted Lee that I was heading out there. I left the house just after 8:00 and from Silver Lakes, I drove Route 66 to Victorville then east on Highway 18 to GZ. I drove pass Starbucks. If anyone knows me, that's rare. I usually Snag me some espresso first thing. It's a ritual. I drove passed it and waved. I turned off of Highway 18 onto the outer Highway then straight to the empty back parking lot. Parked near GZ and quickly searched. I found nothing. Time to get dirty. On my knees I searched low. Spider webs, nothing there. I sneaked a peak to the other side. Nothing there. I reassessed the location. It took me a minute when I spotted something suspicious. Sure enough, it was a baggie. Pulled it from its spot and found me the orange beam! My day has changed! I bailed on the cleaning folks and headed to the office instead. I figured they would call me to tell me they are trying to get in the house. I'll meet them then. On the way in I picked me up some bean goodness and made it to the office by 9:30am. It's now after 12:30 and I haven't heard from the cleaners. Thank you for placing a SNAG and changing my day. It was worth every minute of it!

So this is a fun story. So sure enough chuckbone is just going about his business finding the TSC 2019 Veteran #2: Light Pole Skirt Delight! when he finds this game piece in a pill bottle at GZ. Being kind of new he thinks it is part of the multi cache and that is the final without a log. So he moves it to another skirt. Not knowing this but guessing he found and took it, I message him to let him know he should not log TSC 2019 Veteran #2: Light Pole Skirt Delight! as found because I did not see his name on the final. Then I realize he did not take this orange beam, but re-hid it again. So I take off with the Sunday School Youth Group in tow and we come down to start checking skirts and find it! Then we went and found TSC 2019 Veteran #2: Light Pole Skirt Delight! since rcoop9 is Geocaching too. Then chuckbone comes back down to get the game piece but I beat him by a couple minutes apparently. Good times! TSC 2019 Veteran #2: Light Pole Skirt Delight! will be there at this photo hint for a couple more days then I am archiving it and remove it!

Agent Scully and I had just finished our meal, when we received the alert. We quickly grabbed our gear and headed out. Along the way, we came around a corner and stomped the brakes, as we were delayed by 6 other brown 4 legged creatures! A few more miles and another one was by a guard rail, too afraid to jump. Finally, pulled into parking and started our search. Something had scorched the fence black, but found that cow after short search in the dark. Agent Mulder reporting

Orange Beam: 585 - Watson on Steroids!

Folsom Blvd, Folsom, CA, US

Claimed by mrc1925t 2 years 10 months ago (11h 58m 55s since publication)

Snagged @ 6:58 AM. I received some Snag The Tag notifications last night and thought this tag was already snagged since the most recent e-mail said, "claimed" in the subject line. However, upon closer examination, there were 2 tag publications and this one was still available. Got up early this morning and headed straight to Folsom (even skipping breakfast). It took approximately half an hour to get to the location and during the drive there, I was concerned that another geocacher, residing closer, might snag the tag. Arrived on scene and quickly spotted the large animal in the photo. Checked the webpage (just in case), didn't see any log entries, and then, started searching. Checked 1 foot, didn't see anything. Checked the others and didn't see anything there either. Came back around to the front of the animal, looked up, and there it was! I was surprised it was just laying where it was and that it wasn't held down with anything. This is a light tag and could have gotten blown away by a gust of wind. Thankfully it wasn't and I was able to snag this tag.

Had we not had that, we would’ve been screwed. We thought we had just driven an hour for nothing! Before we realized my water bottle. A jug of water is not the first thing that came to mind when thinking of a TOTT. But thanks for the tag and glad this wasn’t a wasted trip.

Quick detour on our trip. Will write more later. Had to make an unexpected trip to Florida to check on some family after Ian went through. We were lucky that our family escaped physical harm. The house can be replaced. Once we got everyone situated it was time to head back north and thought I would check on these because we haven’t had any close to us this go around and sure enough this one was right on our route for the most part. We were happy to find it still there after a couple of days. I know it’s silly but it brought a smile to our faces after a stressful week.

Checked a bit closer and saw the beam of light shining down on the spot. Cowabunga, this cow is in my possession after more than five days of him being in hiding. I'll get him fattened up (I'm already fat enough) so we can be beamed into the UFO to continue our journey to who knows where!!! Thank you to the hider for the tag/coin and the adventure!!!

I saw this publish this morning but I had to meet some friends for lunch first. Was hoping it would be here by the time I was done. Maps took me to the neighborhood behind the park. Thought I was going to have to go hiking through the field. Luckily I had my hiking shoes in my car. Changed shoes then looked more closely at the map. Drove down to the park and took a look around, didn't see anything. Was convinced someone had already found it but hadn't claimed it yet. Got in my car, studied the pictures better and gave it another shot. I drove all the way up here from the Springs, I wasn't going to leave until I knew I had searched the best I could. Found the little piece of grass and looked around and there it was, under the rock!! I was so excited! I haven't been able to get out and find one in awhile! Thank you so much for hiding this!! Totally worked out that it was in CR and I happened to have plans here today! Made my day!!

Had all these great plans, living in an area with so many cows. We have farms, slaughterhouses and some nice little steak houses! The world was my oyster! Then, you procrastinate, and the deadline is looming, and you are caching on one of the most beautiful fall days and you are taken to a place that is quiet and peaceful with views forever. So at the end of the day, I decided this was a great place to put this little guy out to pasture! But don't look in the pasture, unless you have boots on!

I was up on the Bonneville Shoreline Trail above Salt Lake City finding a geocache, when my phone dinged with an email for my alert to nearby tag drops. I saw that the tag had dropped not too far away, so I decided to hustle on over and see if I could find it. On arriving at the given coordinates, I spotted a gadget geocache and set out solving it, thinking it might lead me to the tag. While I was working on that, the cache owner/tag hider came out to say hello, and we had a nice chat while I signed the cache and searched for the tag. As the original description says, those darn aliens somehow managed to beam this cow right down inside the fence, which is either an odd accident or some fine transporter work worthy of Scotty himself. Thanks to the hider for a fun adventure this fine summer evening!

Snagged by my aunt and right under my nose! We were both there on the hunt, she was looking in one tree and I was looking in another when she announced the tag was hers! Technically, we are different households but since she often geocaches with me, we are going to use the same snagthetag account. The orange cow is going to be the very first one in her collection. Buoyed by the fresh thrill of a successful hunt, she is talking about being a hider for the first tag which calls her name. There used to be a super cute, huge white and black inflatable cow at this location when it opened. An extremely appropriate place for Watson to take refuge from those aliens following him. And now we're off to order our respective UFO's and stands. Thank you tag hider for the thrill of the hunt!!

The drive out was calm and easy with not much traffic about and we arrived at the bay completely empty. Once we got out of the car we slowly searched about and let the kids take the lead. After about 5 minutes the kids spotted the hide spot and Mr B took the honours of grabbing it out. The rest of the day was spent enjoying some sunshine in the hills and relaxing watching movies once we got home.

Saw try he publish last night and since I was camping nearby, I thought I’d need an early start to beat the masses!!! Woke my usual sparrows fart and with no movement in the campsite, headed off to make my find. No one on the road and nobody at the parking spot. Wandered over to the photo location and sure enough there it was. Unfortunately, I was too slow to get a Haida pack, but at least I’ve made my first find of a cow. Now to head off and see if I can find a coffee this early in Wagin

Arachnauts is my SIL from Far North Queensland. A dedicated soul, she is down in Melbourne at the moment for a training course. Except of course, being the dedicated (dedicated to geocaching and geocaching adjacent activities that is) soul that she is, she has abandoned our weekend get together with the rest of the clan (MIL from Far North Queensland included) and gone of hunting Tags. Being the crazy geocacher that I am, she, of course, has my full blessing. So how does this work, you may ask? Well Arcahnauts watches the map all week long at her training course "Should I or shouldn't I?" and then at 4pm on Friday decides "Bugger it, let's go!". On the way to pick up the hire car she rings and tells me that she won't be seeing us Saturday, but would I like to join her? Sadly no, I have kids and YOUR MOTHER IS VISITING! So then she drives. And drives. And drives. She stops in Millicent for the night and grabs her first tag! Much rejoicing via midnight text messages. At 12.10 I get another text "Do I now drive another four hours west to get the blue tag?" After a short night's sleep and some "Should I or shouldn't I?" in the morning, she is off and racing to the blue tag. "TeamUs!" she asks, "would you like a tag?". Yes, yes I would. Tags in Melbourne and few and far between and get swooped up before I'm even out of bed. A few hours later a phone call comes through. Thank you Arachnauts, and not only for the tag - I am so so happy that you are out there living your best geocaching life and squeezing in an interstate adventure. You are an inspiration to busy mum's everywhere! Thank you also to the hider (I'm a complete noob here, so I have no idea what your name is, sorry). Arachnauts mentioned that she met you. Thank you for the hide and being part of this crazy adventure.

Well I never thought this would happen... a pair of tags in less than 12 hours! Daughter was doing a shift in the city tonight and finished early, so she asked if I could pick her up instead of having to Uber home. I jokingly said to her "I hope I don't have to get out of the car cos the bra's off and the pyjamas are on!" 6 mins after leaving home my phone starts pinging... I pull over to check - whaaat??? Not one but two Orange beams published NoR... and one only a kilometre up the road from where I was picking up daughter. At the landing site, I made a quick dash into the bushes and the tag was in hand. So stoked as I had really given up hope on getting these ones! ( I jokingly said to Helen James this afternoon that we were the only two people north of the river who seem to be chasing STTs, and so we could end up in a footrace - lucky for me I know via FB she is on the p **ss tonight and wouldn't be racing out anywhere!)

Well that was worth the 5.5hr last minute drive over from Melbourne! Since becoming aware of this game, I’ve been watching the ufo’s thinking how cool it would be to get one, but what are the odds of one coming to FNQ? Pretty good as it turns out, just after I head to Melbourne for 3 weeks. Damn! Double damn, no tags in Vic! (Wtf?!) So I’ve been watching this one for a week & since it was against all odds still available on Friday, after a (small) amount of soul searching, I felt compelled to come in search/rescue of Watson. And now, at 11pm, I’ve found him! Fantastic location & a hide worthy of a geocacher (& for that matter, a geocache). Thanks so much everyone involved, you are awesome!

Orange Beam: 870 - Watson's Silver City Adventure

Silver City Hwy, Broken Hill West, NSW, AU location_on S 31 52.890, E 141 30.549

Watson was hanging around one day near the picnic train "First Act" site with some mooving friends of hers. She tried to get them chatting about her issues with gender dysphoria, and why on earth her parents called her Watson, clearly a bull's name. While she pondered the udder craziness of it all she wandered off into the silver city and found herself a milk bar to relax at - it didn't ring a Bell at all when she walked under a UFO sitting on the roof of the milk bar, and she just sat there enjoying a chocolate milkshake and waffle - thinking to herself, maybe my name just means "What's On" not "Son of Wat" after all. She stepped outside the milk bar onto Patton St, and felt a swift whoosh ! ! ! Watson had been sucked upwards faster than you can say "milking machine" and before she realised she wasn't standing on the street below, she was being probed in all directions by the dark side of the force. "Ohhhh Ahhhh Oooohhh Mooooooooooo" exclaimed Watson "that hurts!!" The little green person was startled by a talking cow, and the saucer, which was moving north east quite quickly now, tipped and turned and wobbled ... and out fell Watson, with barely any warning - plop all the way to the ground faster than a whale and a vase of petunias. "Oh cowpat" said Watson. "It's too late to walk back now, maybe if I wait here, and put up a sign, someone will let me hitchhike back home." Can you help Watson? Do aliens exist? Can cows assume their gender? I want to believe.... there are signs everywhere ! !

Claimed by Flevofrog 2 years 8 months ago (52m 15s since publication)

Vrijwel dagelijks zit ik om 19:00 uur klaar om me op de puzzels te storten in de hoop dat een tag verstopt ligt niet te ver van Lelystad. Wanneer er weer eentje opgelost was, zat ik steeds te twijfelen, zal ik rijden of zal ik mijn verstand gebruiken en me houden aan mijn eigen regel dat de tag binnen een uur rijden van Lelystad moet liggen. Ook vandaag zat ik weer klaar, 19:02 de eerste Krabbendijke, dat is wel erg ver. 19:03 Hoorn, dat klinkt beter. Ik ga gauw op zoek naar de gebruikte cipher. Door de zenuwen heb ik er drie keer overheen gekeken. 19:04 IJsselmuiden, zal ik dan toch deze puzzel proberen? Daar zag ik echter ook niet snel de oplossing; dus na diep ademhalen weer op zoek naar de code voor Hoorn en voila gevonden. Het blijkt Shadow Alien Schrift te zijn. Na wat gepuzzel staat er: “Gefeliciteerd je hebt de code ontcijferd de tag is te vinden in een straal tussen de zestien en zeventien kilometer rondom het fictieve coordinaat hint laag”. Huh dat is lekker………geen idee waar ik moet kijken, blijken er nog wat foto’s aan de pagina toegevoegd te zijn. Als ik die nu eerst eens bekeken had, dan had ik het zo misschien ook nog wel geraden want de tag ligt op een erg toepasselijke plek, namelijk in de nabijheid van de Koepoort in Enkhuizen en dat is 16.097,97 meter vanaf het fictieve coordinaat. Ik spring om 19:25 in mijn auto en dan begint de rit over de dijk, natuurlijk zit er weer een slak voor me, wat me wel de gelegenheid geeft om steeds de mail te checken en het adres even op te zoeken zodat ik niet per ongeluk een verkeerde afslag neem. Als de auto gaat zeggen dat ik rust moet nemen herpak ik mezelf en concentreer me weer op de weg. Ik parkeer even voor het hotel, en loop naar de aangegeven plek, niks natuurlijk want ik moet laag zijn en dat is in dit geval ook echt laag. Even netjes om de heg en de bossages heen gelopen en voorzichtig de helling af en ja hoor daar is de koe in al zijn glorie. Om 19:54 mag ik hem claimen, lucky me. Hider, veel dank. Is er weer even rust in het huis van de kikker. Ik ben er erg blij mee.

Eigenlijk zag ik de publicatie te laat...ik begon pas om 19:20 aan de puzzel. Dus eerst decoderen, dat ging lekker vlot. "Tussen 10 en 11 km vanaf het bogus-coördinaat en pas op met oversteken, links voor". Tja...dat is best een flink oppervlak waarbij de uitersten: Zwanenburg, Muiden, Amstelveen-Zuid en Zaandam-Noord waren. Dus......wat mis ik. Nog even naar de listing kijken en dan valt het plaatje van de rotonde op. Aha. Even op maps-sateliteview kijken en rekening houden met een busbaan, dus begonnen in Amstelveen en de eerste rotonde was meteen raak. En als je dan even op streetview kijkt, zie je ook meteen de reden van deze locatie. Intussen 19:45...er komt zo bezoek....niet nadenken, in de auto en naar Amstelveen-Zuid. Binnen 20 minuten was ik op GZ en bij de eerste grabbel was het raak. Nog geen twee minuten later staat DeBoerMuskee, die moest een kwartier langer rijden, mazzel gehad dus. Nu wachten op de blue-versie!

Na het eten toch maar vast even achter de computer kruipen nu ik toch nog even thuis ben.. je weet maar nooit.. het is 7 uur en nog even geen nieuwe tag te zien.. toch maar even wachten, nog een keer refreshen en jahoor daar komt er eentje naar voren... poeh dat is wel een stukje richting het noorden maar wie weet... O een jiggi puzzel, door eerdere schade en schande had ik daar een handig hulpmiddeltje voor, maar dan zijn we er nog niet... geheimschrift dat is niet het beste onderdeel.. want ja nog niet heel lang snag the tagger en geen boeken met codes voorhanden, maar over schouder meekijkende hoor ik wel Space Invaders, Space invaders... zo dat heb ik vaak gespeeld op mn atari, maar ja.. dan heb ik nog niets aan... dus googlen op space invader font en er komt gelukkig wel wat naar voren.. maar ja RVS... daar kom ik niet veel verder mee.. misschien een hint.. nee zal to h wel cijfers moeten worden... dus toch maar verder zoeken... hier eentje met cijfers... ja ff kijken 32 he dat kan toch niet... nou ja.. eerst maar eerst de onderste... en over mn schouder is het geocachetool zoeken en jahoor dit lijkt er op... maar he toch cijfers te kort.. ik snap het niet.. of wacht 005 ja gaat goed.. maar die dat noord coordinaat dan.. hmm nog eens kijken... o wacht die lijkt er ook erg op... ja een 5... dat maakt 52.. ja dat klopt beter.. nog eens invullen in de checker.. en ja groen... Gas op die lollie wat best nog wel een stuk rijden... Langzaam wordt het donker en denk ojee heb geen zaklamp mee, had alleen de tuinhandschoenen mee die in de checker stond... We gaan het wel zien... eenmaal oplocatie de handschoenen aan, maar de gps van de telefoon was wat van slag.. dus even zwaaien naar de hiders.. en toch maar even tussen de aarde zoeken.. de lavendel rook wel erg lekker maar nog niets... en opeens een stukje plastic.. zou het dan toch... en ja hebbes... Poeh zucht wat een spanning... Wat een fijne gastvrijheid.. nog even lekker kop koffie met de hider kunnen doen en even tot rust gekomen... super blij me de vondst en heel leuk weer nieuwe snag the tagers te ontmoeten in het echt haha..

Trintelhaven, Lelystad, FL, NL

Claimed by Westfour1 2 years 9 months ago (2h 57m 2s since publication)

Deze ronde loopt al even en tot nu toe heb ik nog niet echt kunnen hunten. Ik volg wel dagelijks de uitgekomenen tags en leuk om te lezen wat voor verhaal erbij hoort. Vanavond stond ik paraat. Ik had wel nachtdienst maar die begint om 23 uur, dus dat moet lukken. En iets over 19 uur kwamen daar dan ook 3 tags uit. Die in Lelystad trok m’n aandacht. Dus die heb in als eerste geopend en daar heb ik me in vast gebeten. Koekjes.. mmm daar hou ik wel van, al zitten er wel veel onbekende koekjes voor mij tussen.. Pen en papier erbij en mn dochter ging naast me zitten om te helpen. Eerst maar eens kijken welke we zo konden invullen. Dat waren er toch al best wel wat. M’n man heeft in Friesland gewerkt dus dat kwam ook goed te pas. Daarna Google erbij en kwamen we ook weer wat verder. Ondertussen heb ik een paar hulplijntjes ingeschakeld, die me ook wat info konden geven. Maar wat moet ik met de antwoorden? Ik had geen idee, heb ik iets over het hoofd gezien? Nog even goed lezen in de listing, want dat is niet altijd mijn sterkste punt 😊 maar werd niet veel wijzer, tot ik hoorde dat de hider een nakomend berichtje op de pagina heeft gezet dat de formule ontbrak.. aha het lag dus toch niet aan mij. Dus gelijk maar even wat proberen, maar de ene na de andere rode checker volgde.1 geruststelling voor mij, er was nog geen andere groene checker. Na ruim twee uur begon de tijd te dringen, want het was al over 21 en 22 uur moest ik echt naar m’n werk toe. Mn zoon was met z’n vriendje aan het gamen en bellen en ik hoorde hem zeggen “m’n moeder is gewoon al 2 uur met een tag bezig nonstop”, waarop dat vriendje zei, “je moeder lijkt er wel verslaafd aan”… nou dat klopt jongen.. als ik me ergens in vastbijt laat ik niet zo makkelijk meer los. Inmiddels was het 21:30 en nog steeds geen groene checker. Wat doe ik toch verkeerd?! Nog even overleg met hulplijntje en samen zagen we het niet. C was voor ons ook niet te achterhalen maar door de formule was duidelijk welk cijfer het moest zijn. Ik moest het gaan loslaten maar O wat is dat lastig! Dan maar hopen dat ik in de nacht tijdens werken misschien nog even tijd zou hebben om er samen met m’n collega (ook een geocacher) naar te kijken. Tot mn hulplijntje zei ik heb een groene checker! Toch nog gelukt!! Maar wat doe ik nu? Terrein 3,5, zal ws een hengel nodig zijn. Super donker en weinig tijd. Op dat moment kwam m’n man binnen na een lange dag weg geweest te zijn en ik vroeg of hij mee wilde. Maar je moet toch werken? Ja hopelijk kan het net! Dus snel een zaklantaarn en de hengel gepakt en op naar GZ. 1 Groene checker nog dus dat moet goed gaan. Daar aangekomen stond er een auto op een verlaten parkeerterreintje. Er zat iemand in, maat geen STT’er. Zo, wat was ik blij dat ik niet alleen was, want anders was ik gelijk weer terug gegaan.(dat zal toch wel?!😊) Je zag geen hand voor ogen zo donker dus samen met de zaklantaarn zijn we de bosjes in gegaan. Was best lastig om zo in het donker te zoeken. Ineens hoorden we de hiders ook aankomen.. hé deze hiders kennen we wel, leuk!! Even goed schijnen en ineens zag ik iets hangen. Manlief pakte de hengel en kon hem zo naar beneden halen. Super blij met deze tag!! en net binnen de tijd. Na een heel kort praatje moest ik echt gaan opschieten, dus de tag in de auto geclaimd… snel m’n man thuis afgezet en op naar Alkmaar met een heerlijk gevoel. Bedankt hiders voor deze leuke puzzel en tag, de koektrommel is nu even leeg voor mij hoor. 😁 En de hulplijntjes ook super bedankt! Ik ga m’n best doen om 12-11 op het mega event in Dronten te zijn, maar weet nog niet zeker of het lukt.

Daarna nog dik een uur zitten puzzelen en met heel wat hulp van de Nassautjes uiteindelijk richting Schijndel om daar op een dorpsplein bij the holy cow te zoeken. Daar stond een mega grote koe dus we wisten zeker dat we goed zaten. Al snel hadden kwam er nog een team Jolly jo die ook mee kwam zoeken. Ondertussen was ook de hider gearriveerd. De adrenaline steeg heel snel en dacht zal ons voor de 2e keer vanavond gebeuren dat hij voor onze neus wordt geclaimd. Dus zoeken zoeken en yessss ik heb hem. Daarna nog even staan kletsen met de hider en team Jolly jo. Op weg naar huis zakte de adrenaline weer en hebben we de cow naar 4 keer eindelijk in handen.

Ping! Wie kent 'm niet, het welbekende pingeltje van je mail als er weer een tag uitgekomen is. Drie deze keer, maar niks echt in de buurt, al is niets wat het lijkt. Dochterlief is inmiddels terug van een kinderfeestje, en ze mag daarna nog mee naar een wedstrijd van TOP Oss. Dat wil ze wel, dus ik breng haar even weg. Telefoon hoeft niet mee voor die 5 minuten. Hij is toch ook bijna leeg. Kom ik terug, roepen man en zoon dat Thijs gebeld heeft. Ze hadden net zo goed kunnen zeggen: De jacht is begonnen! Want als hij belt als er net een tag uit is, betekent dat veel goeds. Voicemail was ingesproken: TAG!! Bij jou in de buurt!! Ikke terugbellen. Voicemail. Ikke nog een keer terugbellen. Voicemail. (Weet je trouwens dat je een irritante voicemail hebt?!) De mannen vragen in koor: Mama, ga je Snag the Taggen? De een omdat hij de bui al ziet hangen, de ander omdat hij graag mee wil. Dan komt er een app binnen: We konden het niet laten, we zijn toch zelf op pad. Ik kreeg geen extra informatie. Hmmm, vreemd. Dat houdt waarschijnlijk in dat MIJN reistijd korter is dan ZIJN reistijd. Ondertussen werd in ons groepje druk gepuzzeld. Nou ja, door de helft van de groep. Eentje was er aan het klussen, de ander had de kat op schoot. Achteraf had ik beter moeten weten, maar dat komt later. Tussendoor Thijs nog een keer gebeld, weer geen nieuwe informatie. Aaarggghhh! Normaal ben je altijd zo behulpzaam! Dat bevestigde steeds meer dat de tag in de buurt moest liggen. Maar aan de andere kant, er was nog steeds niks geclaimd. En ik weet zijn reistijd ongeveer. Ondertussen liep hier de puzzelmachine verder. BeckPack-mini vond het allemaal wel prima, Netflix op en mooi niks zeggen. Totdat ik het met de puzzel even niet meer wist, en zag dat het ruim een uur geleden al bedtijd was. Hup, naar boven. Ik kom beneden, wéér een gemiste oproep van Thijs. Maaaaarrrr, ook nog niks geclaimed. Terugbellen. Sas! Hijligtbijeenslootenikkonernietbijenietsmeteenslot. WAAR THIJS!!!!!! Bij jou! In Megen! (En nu gaan we even terug naar ons teamlid dat aan het klussen was. Huhuh, maar wel stiekem hider zijn zonder dat te zeggen!) Uiteraard had ik eerst mijn hulp aangeboden aan mijn geomaatje, maar die was al onderweg naar huis. Wat gegevens uitgewisseld, we zagen dat we er zelf bijna waren met de puzzel. Ikke in de app: IK WEET WAAR HIJ LIGT! (Willen ze op dat moment eerst weten hoe de puzzel moest.) Leonie, mijn puzzelhulp, wilde wel mee. Ik wist inmiddels dat de tag aan de andere kant van de sloot lag (laat ik daar nou al eens eerder een tag gevonden hebben), dus de ladder moest mee. Zo gezegd zo gedaan. Hup, de wei in, in het donker. 113 meter rechtdoor. Ladder over de sloot en gaan. Inmiddels was onze klusman ook gearriveerd (smiecht!), en kon ik de tag vinden en claimen. Sorry Thijs! (maar hij is in goede handen hoor!) Oh ja, hider heeft heel de tijd op locatie gekeken, en er zijn meerdere teams op locatie geweest. Hoe gaaf dat het dan toch gelukt is! Tot slot met zijn allen nog een wijntje bij de hider op, en plannen gemaakt voor een nieuw cache-avontuur met ons groepje. Thijs, dank voor het vergeten van je waadpak en ladder, Leonie voor het helpen puzzelen, en het wèl meenemen van de ladder. Hider, dank voor het spontane avontuur, en ik hoop dat het verloren pakketje met blauwe UFO's snel de aarde bereikt!

Deze ronde zijn we helaas niet in staat om veel te hunten. We hebben een gevonden hond in opvang die veel van onze tijd opslokt. Maar toch kriebelt het als je de tags voorbij ziet komen ...Aniet&Lyd zonder tag dat kan toch niet. Dinsdag waren we 4 minuten te laat en ging deBoerMuskee er met de tag vandoor. De volgende dag zaten we klaar..twee puzzels.. Op Eindhoven gaan onze geovriendjes wel af vermoeden we,en de puzzel in noord-holland is wel erg ver... Ik doe nog wat dingen voor mijn werk in de avond en Aniet kijkt toch stiekem naar de puzzel. We zien dat er steeds groepjes van 3 cijfers staan. En er staat een lap tekst. Ik krijg een ingeving ... Regel...woord ..letter...dat zijn er steeds drie. Maar daar komen allemaal abcdef-jes uit... Maar wel toevallig op elke zin een abcdef combinatie .. maar wat moet je met die alfabet scrabble... Na twee keer diep zuchten....7 segmenten code natuurlijk....net als je wekkerradio....ik kon alleen maar aan m'n wekker van de volgende ochtend denken, want ik moest notabene erg vroeg naar Frankrijk voor mijn werk. T is 23:00 en we staren naar een prachtig coördinaat. Ff Google Maps-en... Jeetje 1 uur en 43 minuten. Ja pleur op hoor, dat kan echt niet, zei ik nog voordat we onze jassen aan deden. We belde nog even een nachtzuster die toch altijd wakker is 's avonds of ze even na wilde puzzelen. We willen geen foutjes op zo'n eind rijden natuurlijk. Aangekomen op gz...flink wat bomen.. ik begin al te grommen ..niet te doen in t donker.... Ook een flinke plas water en een rietkraag... Om een lang verhaal kort te maken.... We hebben behalve de bomen alles omgemaaid rond GZ ..een paar keer verdwenen onze voeten 30 cm de drap in langs de waterkant. De bomen werden goed beschenen, maar geen tag te bekennen. We zijn geen opgevers en we hadden een goed vermoeden van wie de tag was. Maar we gaan geen mensen uit bed bellen natuurlijk. Het koste ff tandenbijten maar om twee uur reden we terug....zonder tag. Om half 4 lagen we in bed...nog even twee uur slapen... De volgende dag zagen we de hider post...er zat een fout in de puzzel. Kan gebeuren. Smiddags zou de opheldering komen en was Aniet in staat om de tag alsnog te claimen. Een leuke 3D koe!! Vanuit Frankrijk hoorde ik het goede nieuws. Onze wallen hingen op onze knieën, maar we zijn de dag doorgekomen. Alles voor een tag Lieve Hiders, bedankt voor de leuke puzzel... Hij was echt leuk!! En bedankt voor het nachtelijke avontuur de wallen en de tag !! We gaan elkaar zien op t event!

Eindelijk zijn de UFO's dan ook in Nederland gespot. Toen deze online kwam was het toch even achter de oren krabben,.. 🤔 maar na een beetje gegoogle. Vond ik toch iets wat het kon zijn. Locatie ingevoerd, inzoomen,… inzoomen,… inzoomen. En YES 🎉 locatie correct😁 Coordinaten ingevoerd,.. oei best een stukje van huis, maar toch maar gereden ondanks de regen. In de haast mijn zaklamp vergeten, onderweg begon het toch al snel te schemeren.🔦. Hopelijk heb ik hem niet nodig. De rit duurt lang,.. niet goed voor de zenuwen🤪. Hoe dichter ik bij kom hoe meer ik ga denken wat kan hier nu zijn. Maar in de buurt van het 0punt is duidelijk dat ik een bos(je) in moet. even een ingang zoeken… lastig. Ik wurm me door de takken. Hmm hier is het toch al een stuk donkerder en in een rap tempo wordt het steeds donkerder. Was ik mijn zaklamp maar niet vergeten. Op het 0-punt aangekomen zie ik zo snel niets… beetje rondgelopen. Hmmm niets. Begin me toch zorgen te maken of ik het ga winnen tegen de klok. Dan kijk ik naar rechts en zie iets blauws glinsteren.. pffff dat moet hem zijn (ik herken hem 😅, we hebben al eerder kennis gemaakt.) Met deze regen verwacht ik geen UFO’s te kunnen spotten dus neem ik hem maar mee, wie weet van de week. tevreden weer naar huis gereden. Hider, wederom weer bedankt voor een spannende avond.!

yes! onze eerste snag the tag :-D Net na het eten kwam de mail met de melding van deze STT. En nog wel heul vlakbij!!! Snel aan de laptop en puzzelen. Het ene teamlid dacht aan het een, de ander dacht aan iets anders. Er kon er maar één gelijk hebben. Dan nog snel de juiste coördinaten checken. Dan.... gaan we, of toch niet. Voor hetzelfde geld is het al weg tegen dat wij er zijn. We gaan!!! Zaklamp mee...GO!!!! Maar eenmaal op de locatie was er niks of niemand te bespeuren. Is dat goed of slecht? Even checken of er ondertussen nog niemand voor ons is geweest en er al een claim is geweest. NEE! Nog niet geclaimd, dus 'het' moet er nog zijn.... Ondanks de duidelijke hint, toch 16x heen en weer gelopen. De twijfel slaat toe.... maar dan zien we hetgeen waar we naar uit moeten kijken. Hoe blij kan je dan zijn :-D De vogeltjes die al sliepen zijn ter plaatse even wakker geschrokken van onze vreugdekreten. Bedankt hider, voor dit erg leuke spel.

Yes! Eindelijk hebben we hem. Meer dan een uur nadat hij online kwam, zagen we hem pas. De puzzel was snel opgelost. Maar ja, wat is de kans dat hij na zo lang nog niet gevonden is. Twijfel.. uiteindelijk toch maar op pad. Op locatie staan we met 5 teams te puzzelen. Maar we komen steeds niet in het sleutelkastje. Uiteindelijk om 22 uur hebben we het kastje open. De laatste twee cijfers lijken omgewisseld te zijn. Als we die omdraaien komt er namelijk een logische code uit, die we al een uur eerder probeerden. En wat leuk dat het een koe op de snag the tag staat, ons lievelingsdier!

Claimed by Roykuh 2 years 9 months ago (2h 27m 5s since publication)

Zoals iedere avond zit ik rond 19u naar mijn telefoon te staren in de hoop dat er een tag in de buurt online komt. Vorige week sta ik tijdens mijn werk in de buurt van het Evoluon in Eindhoven. Deze mooie ufo kleurt mooi in de duisternis. Om 19u pling een nieuwe tag met uiteraard de bogus weer op het Evoluon. Helaas ben ik aan het werk en kan ik dus niet naar de puzzel kijken. Vandaag stroomt de mailbox weer vol met online gekomen tags. Ik zie dat er ook 1 weer in Eindhoven online gekomen is. Ik negeer de overige mails en probeer de tag Orange Beam: 915 - Fieldcalculations (https://ufo.snagthetag.com/viewTag.php?id=915) te ontcijferen. Dit lukt zo 1,2,3 niet en breng de kids naar bed. Als ik weer beneden ben kijk ik nog eens en nog eens.. Maar geen van de manieren die ik probeer geeft een groene checker. Ik ga de mailbox even verder lezen en tot mijn verbazing zijn er vandaag 2 tags online in Eindhoven. Als ik de pagina open staat de checker 0x op groen en 8x op rood. Dat bied nog kansen. Het verhaal van boer Koekoek spreekt mij aan en wil de voorkomen dat boer Koekoek al zijn koeien ziet verdwijnen in 'het zwarte gat..' Ik bekijk de afbeelding eens wat nauwkeuriger en maak de foto wat lichter. Dan valt na veel inzoemen het noordelijke coördinaat op. Deze zit verstopt in het zwarte stuk tussen het oor met label en zijn kop. Ahhh gaan we deze zo doen... Samen met mijn vrouw bekijken we stukje voor stukje naar de afbeelding en dan roept mijn vrouw, 'dit misschien?' Thanks, daar heb ik al meerdere malen overheen gekeken. En het oostelijke coördinaat wordt genoteerd. Deze zit verstopt op het puntje van zijn neus maar stuken moeilijker zichtbaar dan het Noord coördinaat. Ik voer de gevonden coördinaten in en de checker kleurt GROEN! Vanuit huis is het nog bijna 50min rijden maar met geen verdere groene checkers verwacht ik nog weinig kapers op de kust. Als ik nog 15min te gaan heb ververs ik de pagina nogmaals om te zien of er nog een groene checker bijgekomen is. Dit blijkt niet het geval en niet veel later sta ik met mijn auto bij een reusachtige koe! Wauw wat een gave plek voor een tag! In de checker stond nog een aanwijzing waar ik de tag zou kunnen vinden. Als ik achter het bankje kijk hangt daar een sleutelkastje met een 4 cijferige code. Dit moet de code zijn van het label in het oor. Als ik deze vervolgens invoer gaat het kastje open en sta ik met een tag en mooie woedie in handen. Na het claimen loop ik nog even een rondje en kijk ik even in de koe. Via een trap in de kop sta ik boven. Wauw wat een gave plek! Hider bedankt voor de tag en tot ziens in Dronten bij het |OFZE2022| event.

Tja, zit je de ene avond te kijken of een retourtje Schotland tot de mogelijkheden zou kunnen behoren om een paar tags te zoeken, komt de volgende avond een tag uit die wel erg dicht bij ligt. Ondanks dat ik net thuis ben (of beter, een minuutje na uitkomst van de tag) en nog niet gegeten heb, is er geen keus: rechtsomkeer en weer de auto in. In de auto word ik gebeld door een van mijn vaste cachemaatjes - of ik nog... 'ja,' zeg ik, 'ik ben al onderweg'. Ik had nog niet de tijd genomen om de coördinaten goed in te voeren, maar dat is nu rap opgelost, en ik krijg nog wat tips mee waar te kijken. Uiteraard duurt zo'n rit - alhoewel in werkelijkheid maar even - altijd te lang. Vrachtauto's die denken dat ze links moeten rijden, en personenauto's die klaarblijkelijk niet in de gaten hebben dat na 19.00 uur er toch echt harder gereden mag worden dan overdag. Naar mate ik dichter bij Amersfoort kom neemt de spanning toe. Er zitten in de regio wel meer hunters. Snelweg af, stoplicht. Doorgaande weg op - stoplicht, stoplicht, ... mag ik ook doorrijden? Bij het laatste stoplicht nog een auto voor me die zal toch niet... nee, die gaat rechtdoor waar ik rechtsaf moet. Nog een paar bochten en ik sta op een rustige parkeerplaats. Snel de auto uit en op zoek naar het juiste huisnummer. Nog niemand te zien. Ik kijk (denk ik) op de juiste plaats, maar zie niets. Dan de andere hoek maar proberen. Nog niets. Dan de spoilerfoto maar bekijken - nee, toch waar ik eerst zat... oh ja, daar ligt 'ie! Net als ik met de tag in handen sta komen er een paar scholieren langs, "meneer, hoe laat is het?" "19:30 uur, precies," vertel ik ze. Hider, dank voor het verstoppen van de tag! (oh ja, de container heb ik in het hoekje bij de voordeur achtergelaten) Pa Gamie5

Het is zondagavond en ik ben aan de telefoon.. her is na zevenen dat ik op hang. Ik heb geen idee van tijd en zit te appen.. dan ineens zie ik 19.16.. oh.. zou er een tag zijn? Verdikke, een in Herxen!! Ik spring van de bank en trek snel wat aan en jump in de auto! Stel de navigatie in en gaan! Helaas kan mijn maatje Gepke niet mee, die zit ziek thuis! Dus alleen toog ik naar Herxen! Ik rij vol adrenaline naar de parkeerlokatie! Daar aangekomen loop ik de dijk op en zie een bankje. Ik ga op de knieën zitten en kijk onder het bankje, niks.. Ik kijk op de foto van de tag en het klopt niet, die achtergrond is anders.. ik denk, het is meer bij de IJssel. Gepke, waar ben je nu? Dan zie ik een fietspad en denk, zou het verderop zijn? Ik loop het pad op en het wordt snel donker, maar ja, daar is een bankje. Ik kijk er onder met de zaklamp en ja, daar zit ducktape! Ik trek het los en ja, daar is ie! De oranje koe!! Vol adrenaline claim ik de tag. En wauw hoe mooi is het hier! Ik geniet nog even van het uitzicht en loop dan terug naar de auto. Een eindje het pad op zie ik mensen aan komen lopen met een trap. Ik denk, ook hunters. En ja, het blijkt team hagelslag te zijn! We hebben al eerder samen gehunt en toen was Roos ons voor! Nu ben ik ze ook nog maar net voor.. we kletsen even en lopen terug naar de auto. Hider, bedankt voor dit mooie avontuur op de zondagavond! Ik stuiter nog even na!

Gisterenavond kwam deze nieuwe Orange Beam online en die werd even vluchtig bekeken. De Evoluon te Eindhoven is met deze serie een gegeerd plekje waar nogal wat koeien beginnen te vliegen zo blijkt. Het merendeel van de tags komen mij slecht uit, of er zijn meerdere kapers op de kust. Bij deze bleek weinig reactie op te komen of toch niet als ik naar de checker keek. Ik waag mijn kans en bekijk de opgave wat aandachtiger en kan er in eerste instantie niet veel van maken. Nu ja, ik kan wel delen gokken en kijken of er iets leuks uitkomt maar dat viel eerder tegen. Ik laat het rusten en hoop dat een goeie nachtrust wonderen doet. De volgende ochtend ben ik vroeg op, eigenlijk te vroeg voor een normale werkdag en dus kijk ik wat rond naar mogelijke aansluitpunten op het internet. Tot ik plots wel heel bekende symbolen zag voorbijkomen, hm zou het zo simpel zijn dan? Ik vond namelijk een alfabet genaamd 'gallifreyan' die wel mooi overeenkwam met de opgave. Aan het werk! De 12 symbolen werden vergeleken met het alfabet en per symbool kreeg ik een hoop letters. In juiste volgorde werden de letters cijfers, maar dan wel in de Engelse taal. De 12 cijfers nog even omzetten via rd en een mooi resultaat verscheen. Wel nog donker buiten en dus twijfelen we even om te vertrekken, het zou nog net passen tussen nu en startuur werk. Het werd een groter ommetje richting werk en wat is het toch al druk op de baan dit uur! Eenmaal van de autostrade kwam de rust weer en kwam ik aan op de locatie. Nog steeds donker, en dus altijd spooky om even het bos in te lopen met enkel een lichtje aan. Het kastje werd snel gevonden en verdorie die slotcode lag nog in de auto... :). Even snel weer omgezet, 'klik' en daar kwam het kleine tagje tevoorschijn met daarbij een leuke woodie. Laat ons hopen dat de tb een iets groter formaat is. Ik wandel terug voor de batterij van mijn lichtje het begeeft en aan het fietspad nog iemand laten verschieten. Of toch dat vermoed ik, je verwacht toch helemaal geen wandelaar hier in het donker. ^^ Op het werk aangekomen gemerkt dat ik zelfs een cache niet ver vandaan gemist heb, oops! :o. Beste hider, bedankt voor het verstoppen van tag 909. Ik merk net dat OFZE2022 zijn verjaardag viert op dezelfde dag als mijn verjaardag en dat komt wel bijzonder slecht uit. Ik bekijk of ik nog iets kan regelen...

Claimed by Happy_Pandas 2 years 9 months ago (1h 43m 18s since publication)

PartyPanda was celebrating her mother's birthday in Tilburg, while CouchPanda was taking care of sick cats at home. At 19.00 this tag came online and PartyPanda retreated from the party to check out the puzzle. CouchPanda was also hot on the trail of the tag! The code was solved quickly, but the audio took a bit more time. There were six distinct sounds in each fragment which lead to an RD coordinate, but how to figure out the sounds? PartyPanda found a website that visualised the different frequencies, but it only showed half of a number! Turning on the logarithmic scale showed the rest of the numbers and a green checker confirmed the coordinates. PartyPanda was unsure about leaving the party, but with the birthday person's permission the PartyPanda sped off into the night. The roads weren't too busy, so the PartyPanda could push the PandaMobile pretty fast on the 30-minute trip to ground zero. GZ was quiet and empty when PartyPanda arrived, and she dashed into the forest. The dark forest was quite a challenge with only a phone as a flashlight. The phone's GPS also kept jumping around, so PartyPanda determined a likely point and started a search pattern originating from that point. After what seemed like forever, the PartyPanda felt like she had checked every tree high and low without success. CouchPanda had checked distances from the different roads, but this also lead nowhere. Aaargh! A few cars drove by but luckily no one stopped. After a while in the cold and dark, we asked the hider for a hint, and it came! That limited the search area drastically! However, still no little safe. And then a car stops... it's Dies Lappe who is also on the hunt! His GPS is bouncing around, just like PartyPanda's, and he soon disappears into the dark forest. While PartyPanda sticks to the search grid, the CouchPanda sends some satellite images that could help. The PartyPanda recognises the tree, but... has already checked the roots?!?! However... the other side of the tree wasn't completely explored as it was rather far from PartyPanda's coordinates according to her phone... Dies Lappe is approaching so PartyPanda quickly shines her light around, but wait! What are those green branches standing up against the trunk?! It's the safe!!! What was the code?!?! CouchPanda and Dies Lappe shout it at the same time. Some frantic fiddling with the safe and YES! The mini-tag and the special woody is ours. Great teamwork between CouchPanda and PartyPanda! Everyone eventually goes their separate ways, thanks for your sportsmanship Dies Lappe! And thanks for the tag hider!

Hehe, rustig wakker worden... Aan de keukentafel. Kopje koffie, broodje erbij en met nieuwsgierigheid de snag the tag avonturen van de dag ervoor erbij gepakt om te zien wat iedereen heeft beloofd. Altijd leuk om te lezen. En zo valt het oog op deze fieldcalculations tag.. dat is vreemd die is er nog niet uit, en best wat rode checkers.. toch maar eens een kijkje nemen. Eerst eens kijken hoe dit zit, want het lijkt zoveel op een x,y coordinaat. Hmm cijfer te veel voor x.. misschien een soort heen en weer.. dus 1 cijfer ene cirkel en dan 1 cijfer uit 2 cirkel.. wel een coordinaat in de buurt van eindhoven, maar niet juist. In cirkel denken van buiten naar binnen ook niet... ook niet... ok best logisch dat er nog geen groene checker is. Maar ja waarom staat in die bovenste cirkel het zo raar.. maar goed.. hetzal wel... Aan de anderkant van de tafel van dochter de vraag die met der wiskunde huiswerk bezig is, "kan je even mee kijken met een vraag?" Ja hoor... "hoe zit dat ookalweer met een cirkel en het berekenen van de oppervlakte en de omtrek enzo??" En ze laat een plaatje zien... nou dan moet je de diameter weten of de straal en dan kan je het bereken met een formule.. en terwijl ik het uitspreek denk ik... krijg nou wat.. dat is het.. daarom staat dat getal in dat bovenste cirkeltje zo raar.. het is de straal!! En dan dus die andere de diameter.. eerst eens de ontrek proberen.. en he zie ik het goed.. het begint met 5130 he dat iswat ik ongeveer zoek.. oke nu snel met de straal die andere en ja hoor plausibel coordinaat en in de checker en GROEN. Wat vet.. maar ja de thuiswerk meeting startbijna en kan pas weg rond de lunch.. Inmiddels rond lunch tijd blijkbaar nogateeds mensen aan het puzzelen want aantal rode checkers loopt nogateeds op.. nou toch maar gaan. Eenmaal aangekomen gelukkig nog de enige groene checker.. maar ja nog een rondje van ongeveer 3km met alleen een telefoon en wat papier en pen.. bij gz een tag met een qr code.. cool ding.. hij scant niet heel lekker, maar daar opent een website met een geluidfragment. Morsecode.. oke hoe ga ik die doen.. thuisfront aan de lijn of ze even kunnen helpen.. tooltje gevonden, maar niet helemaaal lekker.. appje.. dit moet het zijn.. oke gaan we dat proberen.. hup het bos in al groetend naar de fietsers en wandelaars. Maar ja wat zoek ik, vast niet de tag, want dit is geen 3 km.. en daar hangt een bordje met de puzzel.. met veel gebel, en heen en weer geapp komt er een nieuw coordinaat.. ok go.. he hier is niks.. tring tring.. euuh die ufo was 6 en niet 4.. ga maar weer terug.. oke.. wat is het heet, zweet langs het lichaam.. JA volgende puzzel. Weer een bordje... vet gemaakt ook hoor ik me zeggen, ik wil ook zo een apparaat. En weer een puzzel.. dit gaat zo door totdat bij een bordje de suggestie wordt gewekt dat dit toch echt de laatste moet zijn. Maar ja noorden is dat 0 graden of 360 graden of wat. 360 lijkt me logisch.. en go... al kon ik bijna niet meer.. zoeken zoeken niks.. he.. gelukkig was de hider zo aardig om te comfirmen dat het wel goed was.. wat zie ik niet.. het blijft een bos met een telefoon als gps.. en terwijl ik me omdraai zie ik gelukzalig kastje hangen met een plankje... ok nog 1 puzzel... Holy cow hij is open.. wat een meha voldaan gevoel van al deze inspanning en super team work met het thuisfront. En dat nou het huiswerk de boel ingang heeft gezet is toch wel het meest hilarische van alles.. Heel veel complimenten voor de hider. Voor de puzz3l, de creativiteit en kwaliteit. Zou zelfs een bod willen doen op de oranje tag met qr code die was echt leuk ook. Weet nog niet of we naar dronten komen, maar dat laat ik nog wel weten. Heel hartelijk dank! Het was geweldig!!

Dus onderweg op de snelweg nog even geappt met Linda wat de opdracht was en al snel kwamen we aan op de parkeerplek. Nou snel lopen want de tag is al een uur uit... De eerste foto snel gevonden, de tweede ging ook heel vlot, nou als het allemaal zo snel gaat word het makkelijk. Tot Marcel zegt, moeten we echt zo snel lopen of kan het wat langzamer? Nee daar is nu geen tijd voor . Na wat fout lopen komen we uit in het bos en dat stond niet op de foto..... Dan een foto terug en ja hoor op rechts was een pad dat op de foto leek en daar stond een mooie houten put . Zouden we goed zitten en na aan elke kant te hebben gekeken nog niks gevonden. Tot er een meneer met telefoon langs kwam lopen die ons toch wel raar aan keek. Dus nog een rondje om de put en ja hoor daar zat een zakje verstopt in het randje van het dak. Snel met de pincet het zakje gepakt en ja hoor dat is hem!!!!!!! Bedankt hider voor dit leuke rondje!!! En zeker tot in Dronten!

Mijn avondeten was net klaar toen ik een mail kreeg van een nieuwe UFO tag. Oh, dat is in Leusden, dat is natuurlijk dichtbij Amersfoort.Toch maar even mijn eten in de magnetron gezet, hopende dat het nog warm bleef. Ik ging ervanuit dat het een oppikker was en ik besloot te gaan rijden. Op de P kon ik van mijn kant niet komen, maar in de buurt vond ik wel een plekje. Na een stukje lopen door de nog in aanbouw zijnde wijk zag ik onderweg de hider zitten. Blijkbaar was ik de eerste die een poging ging wagen. Was de straatnaam al toepasselijk, Apollolaan, op locatie stond een camera met UFO erop. Dat verzin je toch niet zelf. Met de spoilerfoto erbij had ik de tag vlot gevonden. Yes, gelukt. Daarna kwam de hider me feliciteren. Na even kletsen ging ik weer naar huis. Mijn eten bleek nog redelijk warm te zijn. Leuk begin van de avond.

Steigerdijk, Ooltgensplaat, NB, NL

Claimed by Bully35 2 years 9 months ago (57m 47s since publication)

Al 2 keer eerder heb ik een Orange Beam voorbij zien komen in West Brabant, maar beide keren was ik niet in de gelegenheid om te puzzelen. Vanavond kwam de melding van deze tag binnen. Op het eerste oog in of rond Ooltgensplaat, maar na het lezen van de listing blijkt hij zelfs dichterbij te liggen, in Willemstad! Tja, dan gaat de adrenaline natuurlijk omhoog, want deze wil ik wel hebben! Ik zag gelukkig niet zoveel gekke dingen staan in de listing, behalve een paar gekke aliens in de eerste foto, een woordje in de andere foto....daar blijkt na het uitvergroten 'Succes' te staan. Daar hoef ik dus vast niets mee, maar is gewoon een lief gebaar van de hider.😊 Als ik weer terug kijk naar de aliens, valt me als eerste op dat het aantal aliens niet overeenkomt met een coördinaatstelsel waar we als geocachers doorgaans mee werken. Zou het RD zijn? In dat geval moeten de aliens allemaal een getal vertegenwoordigen! Ik ben dus als een gek gaan googelen, maar kon zo snel niets vinden wat overeen kwam. Dan maar een fotootje van een afzonderlijke alien in Google Lens gegooid, maar ook geen resultaat....Ander fotootje dan maar..ook hier geen resultaat. Daarna weer terug naar Google en opnieuw zoeken. Dan komt ineens de juiste ingeving en als ik hier verder op zoek, krijg ik ineens de juiste waardes te zien. Het blijkt dan inderdaad een RD coord te zijn, maar dat is zo omgezet. Als ik het coördinaat vervolgens in Google Earth invoer zie ik dat de plek zeer aannemelijk is. Hop, snel de auto in, gas erop en 20 minuten later kan ik gaan zoeken. Er zijn diverse mogelijkheden waar de tag verstopt zou kunnen zitten. Ik kijk, ik voel en zo ga ik ff door totdat ik ineens iets voel. Ja hoor! Hebbes! Whooohoooo Dankjewel Hider😊

Een snagje in de buurt online en op stal zijn alle geitjes al voorzien van een volgevreten buikje zelfs het kleine geitje die al lekker in een hoekje van de stal bij papa geit is gekropen dus geit waagt een gokje. Tot grote vreugde is het de favo puzzel van geit dus wordt er driftig puzzelstukjes geschoven tot er een vreemd schrift oppopt😁 gelukkig snapt geit W3W en geit is helemaal in haar knollentuintje als ze ziet dat de tag in de grazige weide van het geitendurp ligt🥳. Geit leest nog snel dat ze een helder lichtje nodig heeft en paardenlaarzen🤪. Al snel begrijpt geit wat de bedoeling is &@€#%*+😩🤯🥵😳🫣 diepe zucht en geen gemekker maar een grote plons en geit duikt ondergronds. Bij de eerste nix maar poging 2 is gelijk als geit haar hoefje in een riggel steekt raak😁 Gelukkig is er een iets makkelijke prek om weer boven de grond te raken en de tag te claimen! Geit had deze ronde eigenlijk al op haar buik geschreven maar gelukkig vielen alle puzzelstukjes op zijn plek vandaag 😁 Bedankt voor het verstoppen hider!

Deze keer geen hider, maar ook niet echt een actieve hunter. Onlangs kwam er een uit een stukje voorbij Zwolle, samen met twee andere teams aan het puzzelen en op pad, maar al na een aantal km kwam daar een claim. Daarna wel een beetje meer de tags in de gaten gehouden, maar allemaal te ver weg. Nu was er wel een in overijssel, maar het startpunt was op een uur rijden van mij, pff dat is wel ver en dan nog een tocht van 32 km. Plus we zitten nog aan tafel, de trailer staat nog aangekoppeld en de tank is bijna leeg en er moeten ook nog dingen gebeuren. Krijg wel bericht van twee andere hunters dat ze denken te weten waar hij moet zijn. Nee tever weg en geen tijd. Na dat alle klusjes gedaan waren kruip ik achter de laptop. En dan toch maar eens de route bekijken, op googlemaps dan. Een hele zoek tocht, maar stukje bij beetje kom ik ergens, paar keer mis, weer terug en verder. En zo kom ik ook bij het gedachte punt uit. Hmm, als hij er morgenochtend nog ligt, ga ik wel op pad. Maar het is nog maar 22 uur, dat kan ook nu wel. Is maar een klein uur rijden, haha. Als er andere hunters waren, was hij allang geclaimd. Man over halen, kost best wat moeite, maar uiteindelijk gaan we dan toch op pad. De route bestaat uit omleiding na omleiding. De eerste al in Den Ham, maar dan komen we toevallig wel langs een tank, dus auto even vol gooien. Whhaaa wat duurt een uur dan lang. Steeds checken of er niet toevallig al geclaimd is en wat appen met een ander hunter team, die al voorzien zijn. Als we dan dichtbij komen toch wel wat spanning. Waarom rijdt die auto hier op dit tijdstip, nee nog niet geclaimd. Dan ter plekke, donker en stil. Auto voor het object geplaatst, lampen aan en zoeken maar. Rechterbuis. Nee deze buis is dicht. We staan toch niet verkeerd? O hier is nog een buis, ja die is open, ja er zit iets in!! Jaaa de tag, helaas is wel het puntje afgebroken, maar het moet de tag zijn, er staat een code op het zakje en claimen maar. Toch gelukt. Nu weer een uur naar huis. Hider bedankt voor deze route op googlemaps, sorry dat we hem niet echt gereden hebben, maar op google was het ook een leuke speurtocht en was de omgeving ook wat beter te zien, want in het echt was het overal behoorlijk donker :)

Claimed by copzee 2 years 8 months ago (1h 21m 5s since publication)

Eindelijk tijd om het logje te schrijven. Ik had deze ronde eigenlijk aan me voorbij laten gaan...ik had het erg druk met werk, familie en studie dus moest even keuzes maken. Maar in deze laatste week ging het toch kriebelen. Er kwam er één uit in Zoetermeer....dat is maar 20 minuutjes...maar nadat de puzzel was opgelost niet gedacht aan de w3w...en toen het kwartje viel, werd ie geclaimd. Toen op deze laatste avond kwam er 1 uit in Capelle a.d. IJssel. Ja, maar dat is een kans. Kijkend naar de rare symbolen wist ik dat t een font moest zijn. Flink gezocht, maar niets gevonden. Dan substitutie maar proberen. Dat was lastig, want ze leken allemaal zo op elkaar. Toch een aanknopingspunt weten te vinden en daar kwam een mooie zin met coördinaat naar voren. En de tip een hengel mee te nemen. Chips, die heb ik wel, maar nooit gebruikt. Onder het motto 'Ik heb 't nog nooit gedaan, dus denk dat ik t wel kan' (dat overigens nooit letterlijk zo door Pipi is gezegd) gingen Renée en ik op pad. Na een snelle rit met vreselijk trage stoplichten, met name in Capelle, kwamen we aan op onze bestemming. We renden het Schollebos in en al gauw doemden er meer zaklampen op om ons heen. 'Waarom komt die enge man uit de bosjes met een zaklamp?' Vroeg Renée nog terwijl wij renden naar GZ. Weet ik niet, maar hij zit wel verkeerd antwoordde ik, volledig voorbijgaand aan de intentie van haar vraag. Haha, door de STT-stress komt de info niet altijd heel goed door. Ook op GZ zagen we al een zaklamp schijnen. Nee hè? Heb je hem al? riep ik, hopend op een nee. Toen we dichterbij kwamen zag de man er zo relaxed uit, dat moest de Hider wel zijn. En dat was gelukkig ook zo. Nu eerst maar eens met die hengel klooien. Natuurlijk eerst aan de verkeerde kant geopend waardoor de hele hengel er uit viel en ook nog de danste 2 uitschuifdelen eruit vielen. Maakt niet uit: haak er aan vastgetaped, hengelen...te kort. Dus de hengel weer in de buis geschoven waar ie uitkwam...weer te kort. Tak er aan getaped, na eerst in het donker weer op zoek te moeten naar de tape. Echt alle hersenfuncties slaan op tilt als je op jacht bent naar de tag. Nu dus de overlap met de tak te kort gemaakt waardoor ie wiebelde. Gelukkig blijft mijn dochter rustiger en tapet het bovenste deel van de tak steviger aan de hengel. Yesss, daar gaat ie en nu komt het mooie groene raketje wel naar beneden. Woeoeoehoeoeoe. Toch nog gelukt. Hider, hartelijk bedankt voor de tag en we zien je op OFZE.

Oranje straal : 929-VOC Wat voor de één een lastige puzzel is, is dat voor de ander niet.... En in deze ronde hebben we er al best wel wat opgelost, maar het is of te ver , of niet haalbaar...., Maar deze puzzel was voor ons gemaakt denk ik. Zoals iedere avond zaten we klaar om 7 uur, en ja hoor, goed lezen, en bedenken wat er gevraagd word, geen coördinaat maar een object! Dat is interessant. Drie woorden : VOC Buskruit Schipper Eigenlijk schiet daarbij, gezien deze ronde 1 woord meteen bij in ons hoofd: het woord Bontekoe! Google is dan je allerbeste vriend, daar komt dan Willem Ijsbrantsz Bontekoe tevoorschijn. Maar een object, zou deze man ergens een graf, of een huis of een standbeeld hebben🤔? Ja hoor een borstbeeld in Hoorn, goed te rijden in 40 minuutjes, hop schoenen aan en gaan, deze gok durf ik wel te wagen. Daar aangekomen staan er twee scooters van vissers en er ligt een prachtig verlichte boot, met zaklamp het beeld snel gevonden en onderzocht, waarop de schipper van de mooie boot ons vroeg of we een schat aan het zoeken waren...... Wij in koor, jazeker een koe om precies te zijn.... Dan valt mijn oog op het bankje, even door de knieën, en ja hoor, daar is Watson!!!! Zo blij.... De schipper van de boot dacht dat we wel wat Koekkoek waren, maar hey..... Wij hebben de 'bonte' koe veilig gesteld!!! Thnx Hider voor dit top avontuur!

Ik pak mn jas en sleutels en manlief zegt je kan beter met de scooter das sneller!! Ik ben zo weg he, zegt hij nog.... (oeps uhmm ohjaa.... doei). Snel de schuur open, helm op, scooter was opgeladen 💪🥰 thnx schat! Snel weg... ik scheur over de weg, langs het station.... wat een drukte.. rustig aan! En gas erop.... 1 stoplicht (uiteraard op rood!) Schiet op schiet op! Jaaaaa gasssss.... Bij Crown plaza kom ik uit, ohh dat ziet er verlaten uit.... dan zie ik een gekleurde koe. Ik kijk op mn telefoon, maar daar is niet het 0 punt. Ik kijk bij de brug, in het bord.... lekker hoog gras. Altijd fijn bij het zoeken.... Not. Een grote groene elektriciteitskast, rondom niks te vinden... grrr, waar ligt dat ding. Dan zie ik een paaltje met bordje, niet in het bordje en dan valt mn oog onderaan, ijzerdraad met een doosjeeee Jaaaaaaaa jaaaaaaa! Ik trek hem eraf en maak hem snel open, jaaaaa een koe!!!

Woohoo! Log volgt Edit: Ik lig lekker op de bank met de laptop op schoot wanneer ik rond 19:30 deze tag redelijk in de buurt voorbij zie komen. Ik begin zie een legpuzzel, deze valt gelukkig mee qua aantal stukjes dus zit zo in elkaar. Direct heb ik een idee wat ik met de uitkomst van de puzzel moet en worden de eerste rooksignalen zichtbaar. Het blijft een beetje mistig, de eerste mail komt retour. Na wat beter in te zoomen en te kijken komt er een mailtje terug en hoop ik op pad te kunnen! Ik zie vele plekken over de wereld (gelukkig virtueel ;)) maar helaas nog geen tag. Leuke toepasselijke puzzel! Nog steeds niet per se met de intentie op de bank af te komen kom ik bijzondere plekjes tegen. Als ik denk er te zijn is er nog één horde te overwinnen! Uiteindelijk zet ik de laatste locatie op Google Maps en blijkt het eindpunt gelukkig dichterbij dan alle vorige locaties te zijn. Een dik half uur rijden, daar besluit ik voor te gaan! Snel een zaklamp (of eigenlijk de bouwlamp op accu) van tafel gegrist en de auto in.! Onderweg nog een goede poging gedaan een opstijgende UFO te worden (iets met drempel, laat gezien, toch enige haast...), uiteindelijk het weggetje nog voorbij gereden in de haast maar nog niks aan licht te zien op de eindlocatie. Dat zou toch op moeten vallen daar in het donker? De auto uit, lamp aan, de palen rond de auto aanzienlijk vaker dan nodig was bekeken maar hem dan toch uiteindelijk gevonden! Het was mooi (en verschrikkelijk stressvol die laatste 15 minuten rijden) om weer eens te hunten, dank voor het verstoppen! :)

Het hunten deze ronde schoot maar niet op. Zo erg dat Gamie5 en KapiteinStuurloos zich begonnen af te vragen of ik geen hider was deze ronde. En met om de week een week avonddienst werkt ook niet echt lekker mee dan. Gisterochtend 9 uur ‘smorgens. Telefoon van de kapitein. Tag online in Kootwijkerbroek. Deze was perfect. Geen moeilijke puzzel, gewoon de afbeeldingen op de foto’s opzoeken. Door m’n eigen fout deze tag misgelopen..les voor de volgende keer : eerst koffie en dan weg 😉 Gisteravond kwam deze tag online. En weer ben ik aan het werk. KapiteinStuurloos heeft zich volledig op de puzzel gestort, en vanochtend kwam het bevrijdende appje dat hij een groene checker had. Hij wilde wel mee. Prima! Helaas stond er eerst nog een afspraak bij de notaris op m’n planning. Deze even snel afgehandeld, en op naar Nunspeet om de Kapitein op te pikken. Door naar IJsselmuiden. Op locatie aangekomen zien we in eerste instantie niets hangen. Totdat ik de Ufo spot. Daarna was het simpel om deze te laten landen. De foto’s worden gemaakt, de tag geclaimd. Superblij dat het toch gelukt is om nog een tag te bemachtigen! Alle credits gaan naar KapiteinStuurloos. Thnx mate!

Vanavond zitten we rustig op de bank tot er om 7 uur een tag online komt. Ooh jeetje in Hoorn, dat is om de hoek. Wij gaan snel naar de auto en de kids blijven lekker op de bank hangen. Na 12 min zijn we er en parkeren de auto op het aangegeven parkeer coördinaat. Lopen naar de dijk maar wat we al dachten kunnen we niet bij komen. In de listing zien we dik gedrukt ONDER staan dus we speculeren nog of die garage daar zou zitten😄 We lopen eerst maar terug naar een plek waar we net langs zijn gereden en het bronzen kunstwerk staat zoals op de foto en kijken daar snel rond. Bij het eerste werkje voelen we aan de onderkant en was het al raak. De eerste van deze serie en op onze eerste dag uit quarantaine. We zijn ontzettend blij en willen de Hider bedanken voor deze tag en dit avontuur

Toen onze hulp werd ingeroepen door Watson om zijn verloren koe te vinden had ik op dat moment mijn aandacht nodig voor ondersteuning van mijn echtgenote die pas uit het ziekenhuis was gekomen. Nu het dit weekend weer wat op de rit staat is er weer tijd om naar Snag the Tag te kijken. Deze puzzel is de dichtstbijzijnde tag en we storten ons er hierdoor vol op. De getallenreeks wordt grondig onderzocht en we menen een patroon te ontdekken maar komen hiermee nog niet veel verder. Wanneer de hider een hint op de site verstrekt bevestigt dit dat we toch op de juiste weg zijn. Daarom vanmiddag samen met mijn dochter eens goed naar gekeken. In de reeks hadden we eerder al diverse priemgetallen ontdekt en dachten dat deze tot de oplossing moesten leiden. Toen we daar diverse berekeningen op hadden losgelaten maar niets vonden besloot ik de reeks eens te printen waarbij de priemgetallen een andere kleur kregen. Hé, nu zagen we een aanknopingspunt met de getallen 53 en 7. Het blijkt dat de priemgetallen gelden als "scheiding" en je het aantal getallen ertussen moet tellen. Zo komen we tot een coördinaat en hiermee een groene checker. Kom op, zegt mijn dochter, het is iets meer dan een uur rijden laten we gewoon gaan! En zo vertrekken we rond half 4 richting Duitsland om vervolgens ter plekke bij een toepasselijke "Segelflugplatz" de tag te vinden. Dank Hider voor de leuke puzzel !!

Gisteravond ontdekte ik dat deze verstopt was. Ik begreep er niks van. Met grote hulp van team hagelslag is het opgelost. Maar dat was gisteren avond. Dus we zijn toen niet op pad gegaan en gewacht tot de volgende ochtend. Dus vandaag. Om half 7 zijn we in de auto gestapt. We zijn gcrochie (mijn dochter) en ik. Het was nog donker en goed mistig. Dus we konden niet snel rijden. Eenmaal de snelweg af waren we er best dicht in buurt. Maar omdat het mistig was ging het niet snel. En de wegen waren behoorlijk hobbelig. Komen we eraan. Stappen we uit op de verkeerde plek en lopen we er vandaan. Dus omgekeerd naar de auto en dichter bij de coordinaten geparkeerd. Hehe, wij waren er heel dichtbij. Nog ff lopen en hopen en duimen. Dat die nog niet was gepakt. En ja, hoor. Hij was er nog. Gelukkig. Wij hebben onze eerste tag gepakt. Geclaimt. We zijn terug gereden naar huis en onderweg maar even bij de bakker aan. Het lekker gegeten. Bedankt voor de hider voor het plaatsen. Groetjes gcrochie en franielle

Claimed by Presea_tos 2 years 8 months ago (6d 15h 50m 9s since publication)

YES YES YES!!!! Watson is gevonden en ik breng hem terug naar Willem! Maar damn, Watson vinden was geen makkelijke taak. De Aliens hadden hem goed verstopt! Dit was geen gemakkelijke puzzel. Normaal ben ik niet bezig met snag de tag. Als ze online komen, is dat meestal niet in de buurt van waar ik me bevind, of ik ga er (Misschien onterecht) eigenlijk vanuit dat er vele anderen op af vliegen. Maar dit keer was dat anders. Eerder deze week was ik bij vrienden van me. Zij doen wel aan STT en ze stelde voor om eens te kijken naar deze STT puzzel die op de kaart lag, en nog niet geclaimd was! Niet geschoten is altijd mis, en zo kon ik eens rustig kijken wat STT nou in hield. Dus met zijn drieen, starten we de laptops en openen we Beam 942. Boer Willem zoekt Watson. Eens kijken wat de bedoeling zou kunnen zijn. Ik heb begrepen dat er vaak een puzzel aan zit, en dus ook deze. Nou oke. Wat zien we. Het zijn 5 teksten/pamfletten geplakt op wat lijkt een afbeelding van een schuur. Ik zie op de achtergrond een wiel van wat ik denk een hooiwagen. We gaan ons eens verdiepen in de 5 stukjes tekst. Een verhaal, wat foto's van films of series, een recept en 2 stukjes met informatie over bevolkingsgroepen. Met het doorlezen van het eerste stukje kreeg ik, met name door het laatste deel het idee Dracula. Het recept gegoogled en dat heeft er alle schijn van Goulash te zijn. Oke, Dracula komt uit Roemenie en Goulash is Hongaars. De 3 plaatjes op het 2e stuk papier waren ook vrij snel gevonden. Dat is op de Sheyellen (Of hoe je dat ook precies typt) 3 landen..... dus we moeten er vermoedelijk nog 2 vinden tenzij er met de onderste 2 iets anders had gemoeten. Maar we zoeken door. Deze twee zijn wat lastiger! Uit eindelijk zit de meeste tijd in het ontdekken van ethiopie! Maar oke, we hebben 5 landen bij elkaar gepuzzeld. Die halen we door de checker....FOUT. Oke.... nogmaals landen check. Moet toch goed zijn, Andere volgorde proberen? De foto;s hangen een beetje alsof het een W zou kunnen zijn, Zouden de landen op die manier moeten worden ingevuld? FOUT...... Damn,,, Wat gaat hier fout. Of is het de bedoeling dat je online moet gaan zoeken naar UFO sightings in die landen/ op die plekken. Daar ben ik dus naar gaan kijken en dat gaf serieus een hoop mogelijkheden in enkel alleen Roemenie. Dus dat leek me ook onlogish. Zou ik een snijpunt van al deze landen moeten zoeken? Het is inmiddels al laat en na echt vele diverse keren de checker geprobeerd te hebben, geven we het op. Nou als dit snag de tag is, vind ik er geen bal aan. Momenteel zien we ook niet hoe verder! Voor we naar bed gaan plaats ik nog de vraag op de site of mijn gevonden antwoorden te checken zijn bij de hinder(Ik weet niet eens of dat mag hoor, dus excuus als het ongepast is) Maar ik vroeg het, omdat ik vrij zeker was dat de landen wel goed zouden moeten zijn. En het frustreerde me enorm, Ook een hulplijn naar andere vrienden via whatsapp gaf geen doorbraak. Oke, op naar bed,,,, De hider gaf als reactie dat er later in de week een hint zou gaan volgen. Even de site in de gaten houden dus want de puzzel bleef in mijn gedachten hangen, FRUSTREREND! Een paar dagen later zie ik dat de hider heeft gereageerd met een hint. In eerste instantie snap ik alsnog niet wat daarmee bedoeld word. Ik kijk nog eens naar de afbeelding, en nu specifiek wat er op de achtergrond zichtbaar is. Dat WIEL, Zou daar iets mee zijn? Wiel >>wagens. UFO'S verplaatsen zich via de schotel, vee wordt vervoerd in een wagen.. Houd het kort. een wagen in Nederland heeft NL. Wat hebben deze 5 landen? Zou ik daarmee iets kunnen doen!?! Ik ben toen eens gaan kijken naar de kentekens van auto's in die landen. Dat waren enkele letters. RO SC /SY ( Kentekenplaat is veranderd ooit) H, ETH EN NAM. Dus dat alles in de checker gegooid.... Had het kunnen weten NOPE. Dit kon het ook niet zijn. Maar het zijn echt afkortingen.. Ik heb toen alle letters los opgeschreven, en heb ze uitgeknipt. De Y/C op hetzelfde papiertje. Daarmee ben ik gaan puzzelen. Het is immers een UFO onderwerp. Zou ik met deze letters woorden kunnen vormen? An de keukentafel zaterdag avond bij mijn tante met gebruik van mijn mobiele telefoon lijsten opgezocht van figuren uit star trek, star wars, dr who, battlestar galactictia maar NIETS wat paste. Toen kreeg ik nog een idiote ingeving! Eerder dit jaar is de filp NOPE uitgekomen. In deze film worden (geen koeien maar) paarden door een ufo achtig wezen omhoog getilt op de reclame posters en de previeuws op TV. Het zou wel geniaal zijn als het daarin verstopt zou zitten. Ik vol hoop online de acteurs en karakters uit die film opgezocht maar wederom kwam ik met de letters niet uit.... dit gaat niets worden, Ik had wel verschillende namen kunnen puzzelen. Rose, Hen, Rozy en ik had heel geniaal ineens het woord Thomas gepuzzeld... Ik kon echter even niets van de andere letters maken want ik had de sheyellen nog op de C (sc) liggen. Ineens kwam daar de verlossende film naar boven bij het zoeken onder sci-fi films. ik open de wikipedia site E.T. Ik kijk naar de namen van de acteurs en hun rol en ik zie THOMAS! Ik kijk nogmaals naar de letters die voor mijn neus liggen, en naar het scherm, ik zeg keiard NEE...Dit meen je niet...Ik denk dat ik hem heb! ET. Elliot! Henry Thomas! Adrenaline schiet omhoog terwijl ik met spanning de checker wil ingeven, Ik zie inmiddels wel dat er iemand anders een groene checker heeft gekregen. Dat brengt onzekerheid. Maar we geven in. HENRY.THOMAS CHECK.........GROEN!!!!!!!!!! Ik doe een vreugdesprong door de woonkamer! Het is gewoon gelukt een STT checker groen te krijgen. Maar hij ligt nabij de Duitse Grens. En ik zit in Langelille Friesland. 2 uur rijden. Nou zegt mijn tante, Ik heb een bekende van me over de grens wonen waar ik nog wat spullen mocht ophalen, Ik app hem. Dan doen we dat morgen ochtend. Dan gaan we vroeg rijden. Smijt ik jou de auto uit zodat jij die cache kan pakken (Mijn tante dacht dat ik een gewone mysterie opgelost had) En dan rijden we daarna door Duitsland in. Zo gezegd, zo gedaan. Maar damn...ik had slecht geslapen want de adrenaline zat hoog. En wat nou als die andere die de checker eerder groen had gehad, er al op uit was?! STRESS. Of als iemand na mij hem op groen kreeg, en direct zou gaan rijden?! Nou dan zou het niet anders geweest zijn. Die rit naar Oldenzaal toe was ook een ongemakkelijke. Zenuwachtig check ik of die niet al gevonden en opgehaald is door een ander als we aan komen rijden. Zoals gezegd heeft mijn tante me uit de auto gelaten en ik ben richting GZ gelopen. Hard bonzend in mijn keel! Maar hey! Daar is de boom van de foto! En nu! Veel bladeren dus even goed kijken en voelen tussen de bladeren....KOKER!! JA...NEE??? JAAAAA!!!!!!! WHOOHOO! Daar is Watson!!! Eigenlijk wil ik het uitgillen maar dat doe ik niet. Ik steek de koker in mijn zak en ga met snelheid terug naar de auto waar mijn tante op me wacht! Zij feliciteerd me en zit me raar aan te kijken, ging het nou om dit dingetje? Ja, maar er komt tzt nog iets bij! Wat was dit een RUSH! Het was zeker geen makkelijke puzzel! Ik wil de hider bedanken voor deze tag en de uitaging, En natuurlijk mijn lieve vrienden die hebben mee gepuzzeld. Anders was ik mogelijk nooit zover gekomen! Bedankt hider! Ben je er op Dronten? Zien we elkaar dan! TFTT (Thanks for the tag)

Ik zat op het goede moment achter de pc toen de UFO's in Nederland landen. Eén daarvan wel heel dichtbij... gewoon in Z'meer (echter wel helemaal aan de andere kant). De puzzel was snel opgelost en er kwam een soort rebus uit met 3 plaatjes. Het 2e plaatje kostte veel moeite om het juiste woord te vinden. In het plaatje stonden ook een punt tussen de plaatjes... dus W3W en zo kwam er een coordinaat uit. Al rijdend het adres ingevoerd en voila ik was op de bestemming. Niemand aanwezig... boom zoeken... volgens het coordinaat kon het eigenlijk maar om 1 boom gaan. Koplamp aan en zoeken... ja... daar hangt ie, ff hengelen en hebbes! Helaas en excuses aan de andere puzzelaars en zoekers... kon ik niet inloggen op de STT site omdat mijn ww verkeerd was.. damn. Daarvoor duurde het zolang tot ik de tag kon claimen. Ik heb wel de hider een appje gestuurd of hij kon zeggen dat ie gevonden was... maar kan heel goed begrijpen dat je daar niet naar kijk... je kijkt naar de status. Bedankt voor het plaatsen... nu nog op zoek naar die andere ufo! Groetjes, Ron

Ik zit nu weer thuis te bekomen van het avontuur dat ik weer beleefd heb. Laat ik beginnen bij het begin: Ik kwam vannacht om 2 uur thuis van een bruiloft in Heerlen en dan kom ik langs Spaubeek en ik dacht daar een schijnsel te zien maar geen verdere aandacht aan besteed. Kom ik thuis in Neerbeek zie ik dat er iets is geweest , al even na 19 uur, met een UFO of verschijnselen in Spaubeek. Ik zie wat rare tekens in de tekst erbij en denk aan de dierenriem, maar dit bleek niet zo. Maar ja het is al 2 uur en het bed lokt. Vanmorgen om 8 uur op omdat ik met iemand afgesproken heb iets te brengen en als ik dan rond 10:45 aan het ontbijt zit en op de telefoon kijk, zie ik het vreemde bericht weer. Ook zie ik dat nog niemand het raadsel heeft opgelost. Dan toch maar even de pc aanzetten en me aan mijn taak als rekruut wijden waarvoor ik me bij GeoLash ( secret event in Schinnen) had aangemeld. Dan zie ik dat in de planeten de oplossing staat en wel in Dutch grid. Nu met de goede oplossing spring ik met mijn vrouw ( die mij heel vaak assisteert) in de auto op weg naar Spaubeek. Er is bijna een parkeerplek voor de deur en wij het veld in. Op ground zero zien we eigenlijk niks merkwaardigs maar onder een stammetje blijkt toch die oranje straal een groen voorwerp getransporteerd te hebben. Voorzichtig wordt dit opengemaakt en gelukkig blijkt het de code te bevatten om het gevaar hier uit te schakelen zodat de rust in Spaubeek weer terug keren. Ik lees in wat logjes dat we ondanks de vele uren later we toch net op tijd waren om groot onheil te voorkomen. Alle ruimte wezens bedankt voor jullie boodschap uit de ruimte zodat ik Spaubeek van groot onheil kon behouden ( en voor dit avontuur) 👍🎈🙋🏼‍♂️

Orange Beam: 951 - De verkenningsmissie Ik puzzel wel eens vaker mee, maar meestal kansloos. Een legpuzzel moet me dan toch wel lukken en nog in de buurt ook! Ik ga een poging wagen. Onder werktijd begin ik aan de eerste puzzel. Appeltje eitje, de uitkomst is nog een puzzel. Elke puzzel zoomt iets verder uit, zodat het gebied steeds duidelijker wordt. Ik dacht dat ik redelijk bekend was met Nieuwegein en het wel snel zou herkennen, maar helaas. Nog maar een puzzel maken. Mijn collega helpt me mee met puzzelen. Die herkend het ook niet. Werktijd zit erop en zo ook de 7e puzzel. Snel naar huis rijden om daar de volgende te maken. Ik start alles thuis weer op en kijk dan toch even net iets verder dan alleen omgeving Nieuwegein op google maps. En ineens herken ik iets. Zou het me dan toch een keer lukken? Maar is toch verder dan ik aanvankelijk dacht, toch nog een uur rijden. De kans dat iemand anders deze claimt is best groot. Ik neem het risico en ik ga ervoor! Mijn kids zijn net uit school en met een macdonalds als lokkertje gaan ze mee. Mijn collega weer ingeschakeld om de site in de gaten te houden. Mocht deze geclaimd worden, dan kan ik gelijk omkeren. Hoe dichterbij de plaats van bestemming hoe spannender het wordt. Elke auto is verdacht. Snel parkeren op een leeg plekje en met tempo nog een klein stukje lopen. Er lopen mensen voor ons op het pad….aaiii…dat zou zuur zijn….maar gelukkig, ze slaan af! Met z’n drieën zoeken we rond de bomen die er staan en ja …..daar ligt ie dan! Mijn allereerste tag die ik mag vinden! Super blij ermee en heb genoten van het puzzelen.


Orange Beam: 953 - Watson stijgt naar grote hoogte

Weg zonder naam, Het Ven, Eindhoven, NB, NL

Claimed by Remeo-wonder 2 years 9 months ago (1d 12h 48m 55s since publication)

Zoals een aantal van jullie gezien hebben had ik gisteren het juiste coordinaat al in handen. Wat jullie nog niet weten is dat voor mij het avontuur toen gewoon doorging. Het was al aan het schemeren toen we wegreden. De hint van Watson die in de checker stond: "een extreme versie van een bekende tool" samen met de titel van deze tag deed me besluiten om naast de 5m hengel de telescoop stok van mijn takkenzaag (ook bijna 5 meter) mee te nemen. Uiteraard zat de zaklamp en een rol tape in de tas. Gelukkig was het punt niet helemaal in Eindhoven maar iets dichter bij huis, ongeveer een half uurtje rijden. Dat betekende wel dat we met de laatste "lichte" lucht bij het bosje aankwamen. Aha geen bordje verboden na zonsondergang. Zaklamp aan en het pad in gelopen. Maar waar moeten we nu die 50 meter naar rechts? Is er geen paadje. In het donker lijkt het een behoorlijk struikgewas. Toch maar erin. De brandnetels staan mens hoog (wij zijn niet zo groot) en in het donker lukt het de juiste boom te vinden. Dan de zaklamp omhoog...oei wat hangt Watson hoog! Onze tools aanelkaar getaped, lekker ruzie gemaakt met de omliggende struiken, want een stok van 10 meter rondzwiepen in het bos is niet makkelijk en dan maar hengelen. Met de zaklamp was daar absoluut voldoende licht voor. En we konden Watson ook aanraken en bewegen. Maar om hem ook van het takje af te krijgen was toch meer lengte nodig, springen war niet voldoende. Na verwoedde pogingen en zeer vermoeide armen besloten naar huis te gaan om een extra verlengstok mee te nemen en het bij daglicht weer te proberen. Om 22.00 zaten we uitgeput op de bank. Maar ja op donderdag moet er gewoon gewerkt worden. Dus wij in het donker alweer op pad. Het hoeft immers pas licht te zijn als we daar aankomen. Een 2m lange bamboe stok ligt nu ook in de auto. Die hebben we bevestigd aan het flexible gedeelte van de hengel zodat we wat meer kracht kunnen zetten. Met onze nog lamme armpjes dit ding de lucht in en na 10 minuten klampte Watson zicht vast aan zijn redding! Yes. Op naar huis voor een change of clothes en door naar het werk. Wat betreft de puzzel. Ik denk dat iedereen de hint die de spaceinvaders vertellen wel ontcijfert heeft en dat de meeste ook de tool die daar beschreven staat herkennen. Ik las hem vlak na het uitkomen van de puzzel en moest dus nogmaals naar het plaatje kijken voor meer info. De morse code werd al snel gespot en met 4 getallen wist ik ook al wat ik met de aangewezen tool moest gaan doen. Alleen hoe kom je van 4 getallen die uit 18 cijfers bestaan naar 4 coordinaten. Daar ben ik dus wel even mee bezig geweest. Een zucht, weer wegleggen, weer oppakken tot ik gisteravond toevallig het juiste veld vond. Ik zal dit gedeelte van de puzzel nog effe voor me houden. Dan kan iedereen die zich toch wil vastbijten dat lekker doen. Ik zie jullie in Dronten (en zal dan ook de rest van de oplossing nog wel weten!) Hider bedankt voor dit toffe avontuur

Yes!! Toch nog een tag in de buurt, dat had ik niet verwacht, aangezien de regio hier een beetje buiten de SST competitie lijkt te liggen, maar gelukkig is dat deze ronde niet het geval. Het puzzelen koste stiekem toch nog iets meer tijd dan ik eerst had gedacht, de stukje leken steeds meer op elkaar te gaan lijken. GZ blijkt een bekende locatie, redelijk dichtbij huis en ook in het donker nog goed begaanbaar. Zonder lastig te worden gevallen door de grote grazers die hier in het gebied staan kon de tag goed gevonden worden. Hider heel erg bedank dat de regio Horst deze ronde toch mee kon doen, ik ben erg blij met deze mooie vondst.

Heel bijzonder onze eerste tag en met heel veel dank aan mijn zus, die in Landgraaf woont, voor het oplossen van de code. Zij stuurde gisteravond al een berichtje, maar toen konden wij niet op pad en vanmorgen toch niet direct op pad, want het was daar veel te mistig voor. Gewacht tot de mist iets opgetrokken was en toen op zoek. Gelukkig zijn wij geen UFO tegengekomen en konden we ongestoord even zoeken. Wij hopen dat het bericht dat Boer Hendrikus heeft verstuurd, goed aangekomen is en dat het vanaf nu weer rustig blijft rond de boerderij en de koeien helemaal veilig zijn bij hem. Boer Hendrikus heel erg bedankt voor het verstoppen van de tag en het verhaal bij de tag. Klasse.

Claimed by met218 2 years 8 months ago (11d 22h 47m 20s since publication)

Ik kijk al een tijdje niet meer naar STT. Dat heeft 3 redenen. De eerste is dat ik al loeiveel tijd in andere hobbies stop, de tweede is dat STT een hobby is die wel in NL bestaat maar niet in mijn provincie en de laatste is dat het vooral leeft op Facebook en dat heb ik niet. Daarom ontvang ik ook geen notificatieemails. Dat betekent niet dat ik het niet leuk vind, maar wel dat ik niet word afgeleid. Tot ik vandaag een appje krijg dat er al 11 dagen een Snag the tag op de Grote Markt ligt (altijd wel humor als mensen het een Snag noemen). Dat was blijkbaar wel de trigger om even te gaan kijken. Ik zie iets van een projectie maar dan kom ik op het terrein van de brandweer terecht, iets wat Sjouke al opmerkt... dat kan idd niet kloppen. Dan even de logjes lezen.. ik zie 2 hints. De eerste hint bevestigt dat je niet bij de brandweer moet zijn. De 2e hint snap ik helemaal niks van....... maar de foto die de hider heeft geplaatst geeft mij een hoop info. Ik herken deze kleine held en begrijp wie de co dus moet zijn. Dat geeft een nieuw idee in welke regio ik het ruimteschip moet zoeken. Misschien dat ik geluk heb maar binnen een minuut of 2 heb ik het ruimteschip gevonden. Een projectie doen kan ik wel. Ik kom op een gz uit die zeer vermoedelijk gelijk is aan de locatie die op die foto te zien is. Nog even wachten op het einde van de werkdag. Iets eerder dan het einde van de werkdag besluit ik in de auto te springen. Het voordeel van thuiswerken is dat ik dag en nacht kan werken dus uren inhalen is een makkie. Het is eerder een probleem van op tijd stoppen met werken. Wanneer ik nabij gz ben zoek ik ff een parkeerplaats. Ik wandel naar gz en ja wanneer ik daar aankom zie ik wat ik op de foto gezien heb. Een prachtige boom is blijkbaar waar ik zoeken moet. Daar word ik altijd wel vrolijk van. Er zijn superveel leuke plekjes om een kleine tag te verstoppen. Met een stokje verwijder ik alle blaadjes en ga rond de boom en in de boom. Ik vind niks. Maar met mijn abominabele zoekskills is dat niet vreemd en ik maak me nog geen zorgen. Ik begin gewoon weer opnieuw. En dan vallen mij opeens wat takjes op die ik eerder niet gezien had. En ja hoor daar zit de tag sneaky onder verstopt. Helemaal mooi. Ff loggen en weer terug naar de auto. Ik houd het kort want ik begrijp dat het vooral op FB gebeurt.


Orange Beam: 972 - Ik praat toch geen chinees

Lindenoord, Wolvega, FR, NL

Claimed by Sjouke789 2 years 8 months ago (23h 34m 5s since publication)

De laatste weken ben ik niet zo bezig met deze nieuwe serie STT, ook omdat ze vaak ver weg zijn en als er 1 wat dichterbij kwam dan zette het qua reistijd geen zoden aan de dijk, want dan waren er wel andere jagers in de buurt. Nu ik sinds 15 dagen minder aan tijd heb - ben op 5-10 voor het eerst vader geworden - had ik min of meer al besloten om deze serie verder niet op te pakken. Toch kriebelt het soms wel om even in de tijdlijn te kijken, waar ik gisteravond ineens een 'ping' te pakken had thans ik net op het punt stond om te beginnen met een squashwedstrijd in Groningen. Als ik om 20.30 uur thuis kom open ik de laptop en kijk ik naar de verschillende versleutelingen. Op 4 na weet ik deze te traceren met het grote boek der codes. Maar hoe te komen op de andere 4 coördinaten? Ik heb mij letterlijk lens gezocht met Google en uiteindelijk kwam ik rond 22.00 uur op een pagina uit dat mij wel enigszins kon helpen aan 2 coördinaten. Om 22.15 uur roept de slaapkamer mij (we hebben flink wat gebroken nachten door kleine Guido (spreek: Gido) en leg ik het werk neer. Vanochtend heb ik op mijn werk nog een keer gekeken naar de laatste 2 versleutelingen en die lieten zich gelukkig vlot vinden, kennelijk was ik gisteravond echt aan bed toe. Omdat er verder geen kijkers op de watchlist stonden heb ik dit maar gedaan, en zo kon ik rond 16.00 uur vertrekken richting het Kuinderbos (ik mocht gelukkig wat eerder van het werk) waarna ik rond 16.45 uur met de route begin. Onderweg worden gelukkig alle antwoorden gevonden en met wat glibberen en glijden weet ik op de route te blijven. Zo loop ik ongeveer een rondje van 5km door het mooie, rustige bos. Druk was het sowieso al niet rond 17.00 uur dus verwachtte ik verder weinig weerstand of een gehaaste indruk te moeten achterlaten. Het enige waar ik wel mee zat was de invallende duisternis vanaf 18.15 uur. Omdat het eindcoördinaat wat van het pad af ligt, is het ook gelijk een stukje donkerder ten opzichte van buiten het bos. Gelukkig weet ik na een minuut of 10 de 'ufo' in de vorm van een vis uit de boom te hengelen en kan ik deze rond 18.30 uur claimen. Yes, ik doe nu ook mee in deze ronde! Ja, dat viel mij 100 punten mee met de concurrentie. Lag het aan de versleutelingen of zijn de STT'ers verzadigd voor deze 'orange beam'? Vanavond om 19.00 uur kwam er al een nieuwe serie online en daar zijn links en rechts ook al een paar van geclaimd, dus het antwoord op mijn vraag is 'nee', de STT'ers zijn nog niet verzadigd. Hider bedankt voor deze puzzels en de wandeling door het Kuinderbos.

Vanmorgen de puzzel er bij gepakt en eerst iets geprobeerd dit had geen resultaat. Dan de volgende geprobeerd, hmmm nog niets maar ik weet bijna zeker datvdit de juiste tool is.ik verander iets in waarde en dan staat er een leesbare tekst op het scherm. Ik had eerst nog een paar klimcaches op het programma staan dus ik kon niet heen om de tag te claimen. Tijdens het cachen houd ik de mail in de gaten maar het blijft stil.

Al een tijdje houd deze puzzel ons bezig. Weer zo’n lastige, wat moeten we ermee. Eigenlijk had ik hem allang weg gelegd en besloten dat tie te moeilijk was. Maar een ander team wilde graag samen puzzelen en die motiveerde me steeds weer om toch verder te gaan met de puzzel. Eerst was er totaal geen ingang te vinden. Toen beten we ons vast in het planetenstelsel. Maar dat leidde naar niks. Maar zij hadden een theorie die richting boeken ging. Het geheime leven van de koe… jaaaa dat moet iets zijn. Het is té toevallig dat dit boek over de koe gaat. Maar nu? Werkelijk vanalles met de cijferreeks geprobeerd… het boek kennen we nu van A tot Z. Maar nog steeds geen 5 namen. Bijna het boek gekocht maar geen oplossing. Toen kwam daar de gouden tip. En kwamen de 5 namen naar voren. Pfff eindelijk zeg! Almelo, das best een eindje vanuit de Achterhoek. Dat ging de vrijdagavond niet meer lukken. Zaterdagavond moeten we in Rijssen zijn voor een familiebezoekje. Alle rode checkers en de groene zijn van ons. Dus ik gok het erop dat we de enigste zijn en besluit de tag te gaan hunten op zaterdagavond. De checker vertelde ons de locatie en dat de tag hoog in de vlaggenmast zou zitten. Wanneer we de straat inrijden zien we dd mast en de koe al hangen. Aan dochter Mirthe de eer om hem naar beneden te halen. Op de foto wilde ze niet. Ze maakt liever een foto van ons met de tag🙃 En zo hebben we toch nog onze ufo weten te bemachtigen. Niet meer verwacht maar wel gehoopt. Bedankt legger voor de tag en de bijbehorende coin👍 Groetjes uit Winterswijk

It didn't take me long to get to the bench where the cow was discovered cowering. "don't believe anything that you read in the papers" I explained "it's baloney". " But look at the strange light in the sky" Watson said. "It's the UFO following me". "No. That's the sun. Don't you know that the sun always shines in the South Hams?". But he refused to listen and before I could stop him he hot hoofed it away. Safe travels x

England, GB

Claimed by TheCases 2 years 8 months ago (18h 30m 6s since publication)

A near miss. Updates to follow...! Now here is the full story! Watson had been out for too long, elements of the storm were still threatening. Poor Watson was feeling like it was hopeless, he had already seen some amazing places but his heart felt heavy. He’d always loved Devon, hence why he was drawn here, but the longer he waited to be found, the more useless hope began to feel. Then he felt it, a feeling. Hmmmm… was this a weird sense of hope through the dense fog. The boys from The Case Family were blowing off the cobwebs on the first day of their half term break. Mission Control had confirmed all details. Watson began to feel excited that he could finally feel the warmth of his outer covering being found, but that was it! He was miffed to then be put back out in the cold. Nooooo! They had mistaken his outer layer as just an empty coat. Watson channelled all his power into communicating telepathically to the Mini Case, who would just have to talk his Daddy into having another look for him! Thank goodness he did! He was found at last. Watson could see first hand how foggy and muggy it truly was outside and that that prevented him from seeing St Michael’s Church up close, but he was just thankful to be rescued and taken to warmth. Whilst in the car, he had another strange feeling. This time… it was like a calling. Was his 2nd cousin Watson Jr also experiencing the same UFO uplifting? Watson Snr knew that if he was, he would also need The Case Family to help him out too, as he just knew that the blue rays would be worse than the orange ones!

After a really early start and dropping the little one off at nursery, I decided to go and see about the cows going missing by the river always fancied myself a bit of a detective so maybe I could find a clue. All I knew were reports of flashing lights and a strange aura of orange in the sky. Off I went the air thick with mist gradually it cleared and I reached the river. I parked the car and walked to the area of the last report. I saw the cows but something drew me to the lonely tree off the pathway. After looking high and low for clues I was sure nothing was here as I was about to move on I spotted a branch it was different then I saw it camo tape AND LOTS OF IT!!! After a long unwrapping it revealed a cow hiding shocked I quickly helped the cow down he didn’t seem too happy with my help. Then the weirdest thing happened it spoke 😱 He said his name was Marve and he and his friend were hiding from the Aloens who kept taking them for their milk. I told Marve he could come home with me and I would get a friend to go collect his friend. So he did and I cracked the story with his help reporting it to the relevant authorities since then there has been no more disappearances in the area. Thanks to the hider for this amazing spot I enjoyed my breakfast at the kitchen next to the river will be back for walks.

Phew, what a relief for Surve! Just like her sister Hurve, over the pond, the circle of light trick was the perfect disguise for Surve. She was kept safe for the whole night until we could rescue her this morning. It may have been dodgy for Surve in the deepest part of the night, since they turn the street lights off to save electricity. We are not sure how she managed to stay safe but we are glad she figured it out somehow! I’m having to resubmit this as the lovely photo I took with the church is the background didn’t submit with the claim properly and it hasn’t saved to my phone so we have had to retake now we are at home.

Rowan Cres, Scotland, GB

Claimed by cordemops 2 years 9 months ago (17h 35m 47s since publication)

I had noticed that the tag was published last night but by the time I was able to search it was too dark. I was also being a bit of a feartie as Bonnybridge is a known UFO hot spot and did not want to have risk any encounter with aliens. When it was daylight I set out on my mission, definitely more traffic on the road. My thinking was that I would be safer with more witnesses to my potential alien abduction! Avoiding initiating warp speed on my vehicle, as the cost of rocket fuel is astronomical at the moment! I passed numerous black and white cows in the nearby fields and did wonder if they were indeed alien decoys left from visiting UFO’s. I slowly travelled along the road to the parking coordinates and even managed to avoid any collisions with the rather large space boulders that were blocking the parking location. I breathed a sigh of relief that all was quiet and no other vehicles were present. Fuelled by adrenaline I was on a mission to the initial coordinates and before too long I had located the correct tree and the tube was in my hands. It took a while to extract the information from the tube as I’d forgotten to bring any helpful kit with me. Eventually I was able to read the coordinates to the portal gateway. After a frantic search my mission was achieved and I had avoided any alien encounters - on this occasion.

Well that was entertaining. I'm recovering from COVID (became ill a week ago so should be safe to be around people again). I've been really quite ill but went back to work today and struggled. Got home and went to bed but my chest pain got worse with lying down and I was feeling pretty fed up and sorry for myself when the email announcing the tag pinged. I figured some fresh air may actually do me some good and I knew exactly where it was and how it would be hidden plus the kids needed food and my takeaway delivery order had just been declined due to lack of drivers so I had to move. Stupid error now occured and I didn't check the coords....ended up the wrong side of the rather lovely venue this is near. Once I'd established there was no tag I plugged the coords in properly and realised my mistake so started walking round only to see a car pulling up. I thought I'd blown it and nearly left but figured if it was hard to spot I had a faint chance. Important information...I felt ill and it was getting dark. I continued walking at which point the searcher stepped away and started walking towards me.....ok, I can say hi. It was then I realised said searcher was in fact my boyfriend who had also independently decided to go for it. Luckily for me he is a sweetheart (who possibly feels guilty about infecting me with COVID) and after much no you claim it , no you claim it won the discussion and got me to claim it. Many thanks for placing and cheering me up tonight...I am in a lot of pain and this put a smile on my face.


Orange Beam: 999 - Next to the Cloud

Thorpe Rd, Thorpe, England, GB

Claimed by longwhatton34 2 years 9 months ago (12h 27m 3s since publication)

Last week I went to an orange beam at Dale Abbey and knew that if anyone else went it would be my lovely girlfriend. As expected she arrived just after I found it, so I gave it to her partly out of guilt for giving her Covid and her being worse with it than I was 🥹 We were in the car last night when this was released and I put it on watch but didn’t have time to go due to being on nights. This morning it was still unclaimed so I made the 50 mile journey from Frisby on the Wreake to Thorpe. There were plenty of PlasmaWave’s relatives on the road, trying to hamper my progress but I got to GZ quicker than the satnav expected, got out and luckily it was still in place 😀 The code was very hard to read as it was stuck to the black tape but I actually got it right on the first submission attempt! Thanks for hiding this one Robert

Yippee! Snagged my first tag, in the darkness too. Hadn't noticed it had been published for over an hour & a quarter, but since it's still a relatively new thing round here I was quite hopeful that nobody had already been there. Thanks, Cwm DJ

Just about to sit down and eat when I heard the sound of nocturnal mooing. Checked my email and the echoes were coming from just 4 miles away. So tea could wait. Grabbed a torch and headed off towards West Kirby and the bovine noises Found in the dark at a view point looking over the Dee estuary except in the dark there is littlew to see apart from a few distant lights in Wales So headed back home for tea… but definitely not beef!

Just thinking I needed a short walk and ping, a cow in need, just down the road. Shoes on, torch grabbed (it's properly dark now at 7pm) and out I went. On arriving I had a short search, re-read the listing and looked for the sign. Then bingo! I had the tag in hand. Now to walk home.

Orange Beam: 1008 - Watson on Cow Lane?

Claimed by smart_ginger 2 years 9 months ago (1h 16m 29s since publication)

I already have the blue cow as a hider this time, so I was determined that I would get the matching orange one for the set. Cows get lonely on their own you know! I’d been watching my phone each evening at 7pm for notifications that would be both close enough and gettable – ie not at the top of a hill in the dark. i'm glad it's not the 7am notifications because I'd be asleep most days. Tonight my opportunity arose. Ping! 20 miles away, that’s doable. I grabbed my torch and headed out to the car, punching in the cords and hoping the M62 would be in my favour. It was, and I soon arrived at GZ with the light still pretty good, I grabbed the torch anyway and commenced a search of the hint item. Initially I found nothing and was confused. Had I been beaten to the punch? I searched a little more and eventually my hand fell onto something which seemed to move, but not be foliage. I poked it out to the side and there was a little camo film pot. Gawd, I hope it’s not an old cache…. But it wasn’t! I popped the lid and up looked the orange cow. Ah, the jubilation!

Orange Beam: 1011 - Crash landing on the border.

Scotland, GB

Claimed by Hitman9956 2 years 9 months ago (13d 21h 5m 32s since publication)

When I found a blue beam tag last Sunday, I was overjoyed and also intrigued at an Orange beam tag up at the Scottish border. Initially, my bro wanted to tag along, but this morning, he was under the weather and bowed out, so as I was 50/50 as to whether to go for it or rest, I felt to hell with it, I may as well give it a go. Added temptation came in the fact that it was also Fine Pair day, plus International Earthcache day, so suddenly the stars were aligned. I then hoped this tag would be still here overnight, which would seal the deal - and I was thrilled to see that it was! I set out, put some top up of petrol , grabbed a meal deal, which I munched on route, then stopped at services near Gateshead along the A1 for a bit of rest. After some Munzees and a sandwich purchase, I resumed my journey in the warm sunshine, then headed towards Cornhill where the only Fine Pair I’m the whole of Northumberland remained active! Alas, an idiot tried to ram me to the side of the road, with his braindead moronic passenger giving me the middle finger as I narrowly avoided him, then my attempt at a war memorial was thwarted thanks to a pesky muggle. I was overjoyed to find a lovely fine pair just about in Northumberland, so dropped in two TBs - then came the build up of excitement as I drove here for this second tag and much sought after orange tag. As I parked up, I nipped out and was ecstatic to see the familiar UFO and tag taped inside, and lo and behold, an orange tag is now mine! I’m absolutely over the moon to have completed the set - I realised that I am utterly bonkers, but I do not care, and this has made my weekend. Thank you so much for hiding and giving me an experience to remember 😊.


Orange Beam: 1013 - Crash Landing?

Station Hill, Great Torrington, England, GB

Claimed by dixie_gooner 2 years 9 months ago (11d 1h 36m 32s since publication)

I was South of the 29th parallel om a different when the distress beacon from 1013 was received on my phone. I was unable to launch any sort of rescue mission due to distance involved. 3 days and 1,666 miles later I mounted my rescue attempt. I parked my rescue vehicle as advised and was unable to have the suggested cup of tea due to my timing. I headed on foot to the landing site and had an immediate feeling of De Ja Vu. I had previously aborted a rescue mission from GC2XE17 as I did not have the means to access Alcatraz. Once again I aborted my mission and headed home to gather the required resources to make a successful rescue. I knew that it would be another 6 days before I could return, but accessed that Watson had enough food - although not the Sunny Hay Meadow that he dreamed of. There was evidently enough water. Victor from the local rescue force had attempted a rescue mission earlier this week and also had to abort. I now knew that it would be solely down to me. Today, I did not need my beacon receiving equipment as I knew the way to the crash site. Once at the site I donned the relevant PPE and made my way to Watson. I am sure that Watson had been eating well as it smelt like slurry as I plodded my way to make the rescue. Once on the island it was only a matter of minutes before the rescue was complete. As an added bonus I also recovered GC2E17. Mission complete!!!

Orange Beam: 1016 - A Walk in the Woods

Kent Ln, England, GB

Claimed by gman4633 2 years 9 months ago (5h 3m 58s since publication)

I got the alert late tonight as I was heading out to a group healthy lifestyle class, I missed last week and cannot miss this week. Once it had finished I checked the website again and it was still there. Now I spend my life picking up the pieces when people ignore warnings or decided to do silly things so you'd think I would know better. Far from it. Although this location was not far from home I have never been here before. I was fortunate enough to see the inside of the gypsum mine and the origin of the conveyer a few years back but never seen it on the surface, however, it is very long and rather large so surely you cannot miss it even at night 😀 and it doesn't matter no one knows I am going for this tonight!!! I got to the parking location and the warning of little phone signal was probably understated, no bars, not data is it really a good idea - why not. I started up what I decided was the bridle path and not far into the woods was frightened out of my skin by a deer jumping out of the trees onto the path ahead of me, when my heart started again I did enjoy the beauty of the sight. Further along the path there was a fork in the road and nearly gave up, but I saw a small sign pointing to the right so decided I'd go a little bit further. An owl started hooting and depending on when it hooted either sounded like 'NO NO NO' as a warning or 'GO GO GO' pushing me on 😀 As I got to a clearing I was considering giving up and my phone found a bit of signal - I'm close but need to retrace my steps a little. After doing this and deciding to head into the woods again the question of what am I doing. The path got a bit muddy and I started regretted doing this in shorts and trainers. A quick check of the phone and it looked as though I was heading in the right direction. Suddenly the conveyor came into sight and the hunt was on for real now. I checked the email (snag page wasn't loading when I had signal so wasn't going to work now) and I followed the instructions. Quick hop over the gate and found the second bridge, now what is a gabion? Looking around it became quite obvious, typically I went the wrong side but on wandering round I spotted the white lid from a distance and they euphoria hit. Wasn't sure if the plants growing to around mid thigh height were nettles or not but who cares there's a tag there. In I went and touched the top of the pot, it moved and slipped down into the stones, I cursed but thankfully it was easy to get a good grip on it and the container was out and in my hand. There was a new verve as I walked away until the realisation that I needed to navigate back to the car park and the woods look very similar in the dark 😀 I lost the path at one point and as I was crashing into the woods a Stag started grunting - I headed his warning and back tracked, found the path and continued. Finally found the main path and realised where I should have gone on the way in, the van was a short walk further and then the drive until I could get signal to log the tag. Thank you for hiding the tag, unfortunately I did not see the mushrooms but I did see a beautiful moon, lots of stars and head the nocturnal wildlife it was a great pleasure, thanks again.


Orange Beam: 1017 - Moo!

Cow Beech Rd, Cowbeech, England, GB

Claimed by TheSpecialAgents 2 years 10 months ago (11h 15m 47s since publication)

So here is my tag adventure from this morning and a huge thank you to the hider for taking the time to hide this tag. But first some background. I do not know when the tags are hidden beforehand, with exception to the Wizards and Witches and these were my game creations and I helped build the page for the games. Otherwise it is a total mystery for when and where a tag may be hidden. I don’t get paid for snag the tag and a lot of this is done in my spare time. This includes the posting of coins and answering emails. I am a volunteer. But regardless of this I enjoy doing it. So when the UFO game was announced I was only too excited again to get the set and become a hider. I enjoy hiding over finding. Mainly because I like the coins and would kick myself if I never got a full set. So when I took the list of players for the UFO game and sent the list of names and final count to Mar and Oleg and STT I completely forgot to headcount myself. This mistake was unfortunately not noticed until I had received the coins and boxed them all up. I went to activate my tags for hiding and the realization hit me that I had not ordered any. I was gutted. Not to be put off this just meant that I would have to be a hider for both these tags. This brings us to last night at around 7pm. My phone started pinging from several players that were aware that I was a finder due to my miscount and was no longer a hider for the game. They were alerting me to the fact that a tag had been published nearby to where I live. I frantically opened that laptop and checked the map. And there it was. An orange Watson tag had been hidden and published. I opened the tag page but was quickly crest fallen. The page was and the coordinates were hidden behind some mystery cipher. Now I am not a fan of puzzles or mystery caches and the like and most of them I avoid. The same goes for Jigidi puzzles. I would rather be out and about hunting than looking at pixels on a screen. But I understand that people also enjoy them and they like the thrill of the solve. Let’s also not take away that the hider has gone to a great deal of effort to put this together. Despite this first hurdle I knew of a page that sometimes I use to solve ciphers like this and it may be of some help this time round. I copied the cipher text into the page and hit enter. Nothing came back and I needed some sort of cipher key. Well that was that. I had lost interest. Page shut, I went back to the phone to look at another flurry of messages that had come through regarding the new BH puzzle. I had a look at this too. Oh, another puzzle. That got closed for another individual to solve. I messaged back the few individuals that had alerted me and explained that another would have to grab it as I have no interest in puzzles ( Again it needs to be made clear that players can hide the tags however they choose and it pleases me to see the effort that they have put in! Puzzles are just not for me. I lose interest quickly). A few moments later after sending the replies out, one player had sent me the co ordinates of the tag! They had solved the cipher and had the location. I congratulated them and said they best get out the door to go and retrieve the tag as they were a damn site closer than I was and could easily beat me to it. But they explained that despite the need for the tag, they couldn’t tonight as they were busy. I thanked them for the co ordinates and stuck it on my watch list. That night I went to bed and shut my eyes with a plan to grab it in the morning if it was still in its hiding place. My chances would be slim as I know there are at least 4 other finders in that area of this tag and if one had already spotted it, then the others would as well? I woke up and it was still dark outside. I checked my watch, it was 1.34am. As I was doing this, all thoughts came flooding back about the tag that had been hidden last night! A quick look at the page and it was still there! I was still in with a chance. Maybe. I went back to sleep. I was awake again at 5am and as a I roused from my slumber, the thoughts of the Watson tag came flooding back. A quick check of the map and again it was still there. But there was now a note in the same cipher text as the tag page. So now I have no idea what the tag page says or what the note says. Had they found it? Was it missing? Did they have plans to grab it themselves? Well, I wasn’t hanging about any longer. I got dressed and was soon in the car plugging in the coordinates that had been sent to me last night and I was on my way. After what seems like hours I was approaching ground zero and the location of the tag. There was two spots that this could be hidden at and at first glance I couldn’t see it. It was about now the adrenaline had kicked in and I was getting that rush of excitement over a tag. I had not had this since Boxing day last year when looking for a signal the frog tag. I got my torch out and looked around the first sign but could not spot it. But something made me go in for a closer look. As I shined the torch onto the back of the sign, the distinct looking little ducktaped package came into view. I had done it! I had the tag. I was and still am over the moon. So firstly thank you to the hider for placing this. Secondly, thank you to those that were selfless enough to sacrifice the coordinates and relinquish them to me, despite the individual being considerably closer than me and could have easily grabbed it themselves. So here is the story of my adventure that I so enjoyed writing and I hope many of you enjoy reading. I look forward to reading more of yours! Over the coming months I hope to continue to give back to the community as a whole and hold a witches event in which we hope to meet some of you! As for the BH tag and future tags, good luck finders, I hope your puzzle solving skills serve you well and any other future tags that are hidden behind ciphers and codes. And the bonus?.... I grabbed a nearby cache. 🙂 Thanks for everything. Scott. Oh, if anybody wants to put me out of my misery and decode both the note and the page. Please post what it says below.


Orange Beam: 1019 - There used to be cows in this field 😥

Settled down after dinner with my luckily un-drunk glass of wine when I spotted this one in a field a mere 10 minutes away. In my excitement I forgot my coat but who minds a bit of rain when you’re hunting bovines! I lived along the canal from here 30 years ago and we walked across that field many times. It was our favourite dog frisbee playing field and we lost a few here, but I don’t remember the cows. Back home for a celebratory glass of wine I think!

After being pipped at the post for another tag nearby yesterday by about 15 minutes, I saw this one come out last night. Unfortunately not able to go for it then (wine was involved) so had a look this morning. With it being still unclaimed I decided to shoot off as this is my best chance of snagging a tag this game. On arrival searched the usual suspects but didnt turn anything up so widened the search. Perhaps the aliens had been back to beam up Watson! Eventually went back to the start and bearing in mind it wasnt supposed to be IN the reserve I checked again where I had searched previously...and....MOOOOOO!!! I got it. No comment on my eyesight or snagging skills please! My excuse is it was early and i left the house without a coffee! Thanks to the hider.

After starting the day think I was out of this game. I found the blue beam and made it back home just in time to pack my bag and travel to London to see Daniel sloss's stand up show. I got back and was eating dinner when I realised that I could get the orange beam it was just an hour away. It took me till midnight to decide if I don't go get if I'd regret it. So at midnight I drag my partner to the car to keep me company. We got to the location just before 1am and after circling the pub in question and the down a very bumpy residential road we worked out where the footpath was. It was in hand I was able to get back safely and in bed by 2am. Thank you hider

Spotted this last night bit unable to set off until the morning. Noticed a few watchers and expected it to be snagged early hours today but then the thought occurred folks would be set in readiness for the race to the BH. Decision made to sneak in under the radar, trundling through the fens there wasn't a cow in sight until I picked this up exactly where it was claimed to be. Blinking moovellous
