We lost a fellow geocacher at the beginning of this year (2024).
"He was ranked #1 in the state and was among the top geocachers in the world."
We were lucky enough to meet Dave once and enjoyed sharing stories with this friendly caching enthusiast.
In his honor we have created a puzzle cache related to where he lived (Olean, NY). This is also the home of 50+ of his caches.
The given coordinates would be good for parking.
