I have just set up the first GPS Stash site in New Zealand.

Coordinates are: S 38°13.787' E176°17.910' WGS 84 datum.

See http://www.triax.com/yngwie/gps.html for the rules on how to play the
game.

Look for a red bucket, with a white lid. Contains a couple of CDs, beer,
some tools, a Moro Bar.

Lets get some more stashes going out there...

Wasn't Terri King looking for one of those?

I had a look at the website and it looks like a lot of fun, especially if
you find yourself in an area for another reason and have time to kill. My
only worry is that some psycho might take the opportunity to booby-trap a
stash. I guess that one would quickly get blacklisted though.

If/when I get a GPS I might try the game out :) Thanks.

Cheers,
Adam

Curses - beat me to it!

I was going to do one today on a 4X4 trip - but the trip was slightly
disastrous and we were too busy pulling each other out for any side
trips!

Looking forward to seeing your site... I need another one in this country to
go to.
If you set yours up now it would be the most southern one so far.

I don't imagine it will be long before someone sets one up in Antarctica.
