My vote is for WVTim. He is spreading the word of geocaching and being a responsible cache owner by maintaining his caches. We need many more caches just like this!

My vote is for WVTim. He is obviously keeping his caches maintained so that cachers can enjoy them. He is also spreading the word of geoacaching by teaching others. What a great example of a geocacher! We need more people just like him!

Thank you to everyone who cast a vote and commented. It’s important that we say again, that everyone nominated is an outstanding geocacher and person. Just to be nominated by your fellow community members is an honor. Each nominee contributes to the greater community in their own ways, and we’re all better for it. We now here at Geocaching HQ have the difficult task of deciding, weighing heavily on your remarkable comments. We’ll make the announcement in the next few days, and email all three nominee with the decision first, before posting on the blog. Each will receive prizes and recognition for their efforts. Again, congratulations to all and thank you for your comments!

I have not met any of these folks, but WVtim’s reputation has reached my
ears in Florida from several cachers who prize quality over quantity.
That’s a very strong recommendation in my book. My vote is for WVtim.

On the surface this looks like a tough decision. There are lots of votes for moenk and WVTim. Appears moenk has the most votes, but WVTim clearly has the most comments or should I say “supporting evidence”. Probably 80% of the people who made “comments” (more than – “I vote for _______”) are supporting WVTim. I see “paragraphs” of supporting statements about WVTim and the many things he has accomplished for geocaching.
I am familiar with WVTim due to his YouTube videos. His gadgetcaches channel, in only 3 months, has nearly 11K views. He does instructional videos on how to build his gadget caches. So, he not only has amazing caches, he is giving ideas and instructions to cachers everywhere on how to build them. Cachers everywhere are benefiting from this guy whose caches have over 2K favorite votes. Plus, he just doesn’t do great caches. I’ve learned from this blog he has seminars, educational events, he teaches geocaching in schools, and to the Boy Scouts. He assists his state and local government in placing geocaching trails.

This is not like the problem you must have had in Jan. – in trying to decide between The Raven and Weasel. Both had tons
of supporting documentation! That’s NOT the case this month. WVTim wins this one hands down. The EVIDENCE is clearly
overwhelming in favor of him.

I vote for moenk because I really like the way his forum sticks together the German community.
