STATSMAN595 from Marathon has a new "Petroleum Tango-NWO" Series in place.

Have fun everyone

Very fun little series. I managed 3 of them tonight. Just beware of the high muggle population around GZ at all cache locations.

Have to agree with WM, this will require stealth, otherwise, they won't last. Sounds like a fun series. Get em while they last. We are a little ways away from them, and look forward to doing them, when we get back to Blunder Bay.

Glad everyone is having fun with my new series. The numbering system is...well...there is no system. I started in Marathon last week, and worked my to Thunder Bay on the weekend. The rain had me worried I wouldn't get to put any out. But a little rain never stopped a real geocacher. I had three more containers ready, but didn't get a chance to put them out. I'm hoping that some of you will add to the series, so I can have some fun too. There are still lots of gas stations out there. :)

When we seen these pop up we were surfing the net, logging finds, having Chinese food, and beer at the Honk Kong Restaurant in Dryden. Kathy was surfing on the Ipod touch, I was on the netbook. We transferred the files to the gps's and were going to do a few when we got into town, however, these went so quick that after less than an hour, we had them all done. These are "STEALTH TRULY REQUIRED" caches for sure though, but luckily timing was good. this is a check, look left, look right, Do you go for it? Ok no one looking, go for it type of caches, which really make these so much fun. Thanks Statsman, fun stuff for sure.

Is this similar to Mechmans Guardrail fun cache ? That seems like a series anyone can add to, and sure was fun. One down and hundreds to do on that series.

Congrats to Hunter-Killer for being the first to grab all 12 caches in the series. It seems that everytime you guys come to Marathon it rains. Glad to see this doesn't slow you down. ;D

You noticed that too eh? LOL But not entirely true, we were here once in a snowstorm  :o, no rain, just snow. ;) Rain or shine, our days off, we go somewhere, if we have nothing planned. Nice series Statsman Thanks, I think Kathy had more fun with these than I did. Nice.
