Arrived at ground zero, it was zero! Found cache, frozen! Fought off 3 polar bears and missed my plane ride home! Let wife and kids know I’ll be home after spring thaw!
found cache… signed log… mauled by yetti
TFTH/SL… now what?… find nearest cache… I really hope it’s at a Dunkin Donuts!

Two days to get near. 4 days of ice chipping to actually find cache. 2 days to defrost cache to sign the book. What do you mean I have no more vacation left?
Glad I had a GPS! My compass was pointing south.
Took mittens, left sunglasses.
OMG, I hope there is a fire starter in this cache!
FTF but how can I sign it when my pen is frozen and so is the log
Glad it was not one of those you have to pour water in….
Geocaching: “i only have ice for you!”
… did anyone bring a pen?
+1
The geocacher brought his bat, just in case there would be muggles around. 😀

I guess with global warming, I might need the ice maker before long!
It said it was just off the path…hmm

Like a rock, standing cold against the cache.
Hey Guys … i´m ready für the IceFishing Thing or the Baseball Game …
Wait … what are you Guys looking for … i think i should have read the whole Mail …
Cache may be covered with snow and hard to find.
This cache requires stealth – there’s a muggle behind you, over your left shoulder!
Oh no! It’s been muggled!
Found my first cache today. I never knew there was one of these in my backyard!

Hint: In base of ivy covered tree…. Hang on a minute, that was before the last ice-age!

Mom, you gave me the wrong lunch box.
Dave216 suggests: Worst STF ever!

This may smell bad, kid.. but it will keep you warm till I get the shelter built.(GC Username: madbrain)
Base of tree.
My geo-caching buddies are in the background
I pass here every day, but I never noticed this spot.
Only Geocachers go to Iceland (British Joke)
I usually keep my Tupperware in the freezer!
The tag says that it wants to visit only tropical caches! (?)!
I know I was looking for a river bank but it wasn’t my fault they ditched Google Maps is it?
WOW a ice cream tub that’s a nice custom cache box
Why don’t people use the “snow attribute”? Ugh, so unprepared.

The coords led me to a great spot in Miami, FL where I picked up the clue, “head south”. Found it a few months later. TFTC!

As it turns out, the cache was camouflaged and my clothing wasn’t. Touché, Antarctica…touché indeed.
This is STILL better than finding out the cache is yet another light post cap!
Took a few hours but finally the muggles cleared and I found the cache easy – simrebel
Okay, to find this cache you will need cold weather gear, 1 blue lug to make snow blocks and a bat to ward of the Polar Bears. Cache-On!
I walked all this way and there ain’t even any elves in that little hut!

And neither snow, nor rain, nor heat, nor gloom of night, nor the winds
of change, nor any nation, will keep us from the swift
completion of finding any and all geocaches.

After noticing his cache was receiving multiple DNFs, CamoCacher set out for a maintenance check only to discover that, indeed, his cache was still there. He posted a log reminding cachers to check the hint: “big round rock” and attributes “light saber required to extract cache from Arctic hiding spot.”~BirdTrekker
Don’t have to bother about Lyme disease here!
Do polar bears and penguins count as muggles?
So, when you say the bug is “THE THING” you mean….. ?
Watch out for polar bears and don´t put food in the cache

Let’s hurry up and sign the log book, my hands are freezing!
