So... less text, more pics :)
Here it comes.
We went geocaching and it took us to some interesting places.
Here's couple of pics from usually quite drivable road, but lately there has a forest-tractor worked and also it had rained for two days.
In this picture we were still thinking and checking the road, so the Jeep was yet clean:

But not for long :D

Then some more checking to plan the trajector

And through we go

Some sliding of the back and correcting it (damn road tires ;))

And on the safe side

Next cache, parking near the park

Washing the wheels a bit in the sea

Awesome pics! I have yet tried geocaching...would give me a reason to move up from my cell phones built in navigation and I also beleive ti will take me on some interesting paths.

I have a garmin dakota 10, it has geocacheing functions built in, im going to get a mount for the interior of my pat, i have the nav built in and guess what, jeep was kind enough to give me all the woods roads etc on the maps. I wish we could get full topo maps on dash...that would be killer!

Nice post, good photos, thanks for posting.

I have been doing Geocacheing for a long time. Have one travel bug that has been all around the world, fun to track those.

It's amazing how many caches there are once you start looking. There must be at least 100 within 100 miles of where I live. Most folks place cached in areas they sort of want you to see. Parks, scenic vistas, and other pretty places are common places for caches.

I gotta say, when i first saw the Compass, i thought it was a hideous. But seeing it w/ some appropriately-sized tires and a little mud makes all the difference in the world. They've definitely grown on me.
