Central Park Guardian (Virtual) New York, United States
By JoeyDude! on 23-Feb-02. Waypoint GC3CFC

Very interesting find. With my friend JoeLaneNY. Sent answers in.

Fun find! TFTC!

Found

Spending a whole day in NYC without having to work. So I planned a decent hike through Central Park. No mysteries solved, so it was all trads, virtuals and earth caches. After 16 founds, my feet were killing me so I went back to the hotel.

TFTC

Love this guardian. I don't know how many times I passed it without seeing it. Thanks for pointing it out. Answers sent. FP

Such a cool little secret in the park! TFTC!

Visiting town from Oregon for a wedding; found while exploring Central Park. TFTC!

Thank you!

I went to LI to visit friends this weekend. On the way home I stopped in manhattan to grab a few virtuals and one traditional so I can complete the nations capitals challenge cache in DC. Of course Henri was here so it was a bit rainy but I pressed on.
After finding the virtual nearby on 5th ave I walked over and checked out this one. Neat cache and probably would have walked on by clueless if not for cache. Answers sent to CO. TFTC!

My second day in NYC with Ginga_Ninja. This cache deserves a favorite point from me, very fitting!!

Nice. Bring attention to something else you might not see.

I had to go to NYC unexpectedly so I tried to make the best of this rushed trip and used the couple of hours before my flight back home to walk around the city and visit some caches and Adventure Labs.
I was walking along the outside of Central Park and missed the entrance that was closest to this Virtual Cache. I almost didn't go back but then decided that this little detour was worth it to get another cache. No regrets! I loved the unexpected surprise!
Thanks for leading me here, JoeyDude!

#4909 - 13:40; On foot through Central Park and headed for The Met, collecting a few caches along the way. Took the geofamily along to see this one and to grab a pic while we were there for the family album. Email sent to the CO seeking the OK. TFTC JoeyDude!

Found after a pedicab tour of Central Park. TFTC.

We were off to the USA and Canada for a few weeks of holiday, and thoroughly enjoyed traveling around, and visiting the many different places and caches we came across



We decided to spend the day today exploring Central Park to complete the Bridges and Arches Multi. While completing that cache, we couldn't help but grab a few other in the area as were rode past on our bikes, and we soon spotted this one close by We rode past quite quickly before realising we needed a safe spot to pull off, so with a little traffic dodging, we soon had the perfect spot, and a good view of GZ. We quickly spotted what was needed, and wondered to ourselves, how many people ride past here and have never seen this [?] Who knows... Well, we are off to our next one [^]

Walked past on a lovely sunny afternoon stroll in New York after finding 2 other caches.

Beautifull day all around Central Park on our bikes (with Dori). From 9h to 19h, 33 caches (11 Gates and 14 Dasthardly) were found under a beautifull sun.

This virtual was visited on our bikes. Nice surprise.

Thanks for the cache




Cette première journée à New York est consacrée à Central Park : avec Dori, nous allons arpenter le parc en vélo, sous un radieux soleil, et trouver au passage 33 caches dont 11 Gates (notre objectif de la journée) et 14 Dastardly.

Cette virtuelle a été découverte alors que nous étions en vélo. Jolie découverte (il y en a tellement dans central park).

Merci pour la cache

Today we spent in beautiful Central Park.
The Guardian was not hard to find. TFTC and Greetings from Sweden!

Spent a good day in NY central park and this one can't be missed in my list. Great place. TFTC!

TFTC!!

So I followed my Garmin to GZ from Belvedere Tower and decided to take a seat on the large rocks opposite the "object". Nice place to stop for a rest. But the volume of people running, cycling, skate-boarding, roller-blading, etc beggars belief. I suppose I should have expected that --- being a Saturday morning in Central Park.

TFTC

In NYC for the day to see friends son's new eatery and walked thru park. she knew exactly what was here as only statue she never photo'ed her daughter near as a child

TFTC

We found this interesting "object" while a little walk through central park. And I'm sure, we wouldn't have recognized this nice place without the hobby geocaching.

Thanks for showing!

Vår första virtuella cache. Denna "vakt" hade vi aldrig lagt märke till om vi inte haft geocaching som hobby. Tftc!

... together with my buddy's DreiD and Michael from CarstensBande we visited the beautiful New York City. What a breathtaking city. We walked around visiting nearly every tourist spot . Beside we had the time to search for some caches and this was one of it ...

TFTC Twente123 with DreiD and CarstensBand on a crazy Tour over 25.000 km from Germany over Rio de Janeiro, Iguacu Falls, Intervales State Park, Sao Paulo, New York City and back to Germany in 11 days

Found this cache on our tour through New York City.

New York was the final stop our tour. Besides from visiting all of the touristic spots in this great city, there was enough time for geocaching.


This was our personal project APE challenge!

Our main goal was to visit the last existing [url=http://coord.info/GCC67] Projekt APE Cache (Mission 4: Southern Bowl) [/url] in Brazil. Travelling in total more than 25.000km from Germany, visiting Brazil, Argentina, Paraguay and the United States, just to complete this Mission.

During our travel we had a great time. We visited a lot of great place and met many very nice people.
Thanks to all the Owners of the caches we found during this trip and to DreiD and Twente123 for doing again a very crazy trip across the world.

Excellent coordinates for this one. Almost walked by it with seeing it! Found the stealthy guy and emailed the answer. TFTC.

We passed the guardian on a wonderful day in Central Park. Thanks for showing us !

This is what's great about virtuals - finding things you wouldn't notice otherwise. Would have walked right by this if we weren't logging the cache. Thanks for bringing our attention to the Guardian.

Can imagine its shocked more than a few unwary runners during its time here!

Great walk in the late afternoon. Quite a surprise in the end. TFTC.

On a leisurely very first stroll through the park, we went up a hill to be greeted by a small blanket of cherry blossom petals framed by the tree.
Then down and around the corner we came upon his cache.
Most excellent.
Thank you for bringing us here and the cache, email with answers sent

Nice spot. Emailed answers. TFTC

Ran past this guy last week and never noticed the bugger - fierce as he is. Wonder why it's there? Thanks.

We found this on Saturday and haven't yet heard from the owner as to whether we are right in our answers but I can't think of any reason for confusion, so I'm logging the find. If we are wrong, I'll amend the log later. It was a great cache as it brought this to my attention when I would never have noticed it otherwise. I also looked up the history of the cache and found lots of interesting facts out about Central Park. TFTC.

Found with Dosphoenix and also awaiting confirmation. However, don't think there could be a mistake...nice little spot! Thanks for sharing!
