[Az-Geocaching] Team Spike???

[Andrew Ayre]

Not sure why the site says I haven't visited since May... guess it's broken
or something...

Anyone familiar with Team Spike?  I sent them a question about Orbis
(GC8668) when I wasn't able to find the cache container over the weekend and
wanted to confirm my coords.  This is my 'closest yet to find', along with
several other puzzle caches I'm trying to take care of.  Looking at their
profile, they haven't visited GC.com since May 2, 2005 and Orbis hasn't been
found since March 13, 2005...

Thanks for the waypoints/suggestions Scott.  I've been lurking on this
list for
awhile now, and figured you'd be the one to know, but thought I'd throw the
question out there in case others had their personal favorites.  I've driven
through Sedona before and it's a beautiful area; I'm looking forward to
exploring the area on foot a bit.  Been doing mostly urban caches here in
Tucson, but just recently started doing some mountain caching (to escape the
heat and nab my first JTB) and am enjoying it quite a bit.

BTW, is anyone on the list aware of any upcoming event caches in Tucson?
Looking forward to an opportunity to see the faces behind all the names I've
become familiar with over the past year or so...

Thanks,
David
