About Me:
I'm a single parent of 2 children. Blaise is 8, Gracelyn is 5. We are a family of skiers and Geo cachers. I'm a ski instructor in the winter months and the rest of the time I help run my business that I hope will be interesting to others. You'll find the website below. I love the outdoors, but need a kick in the butt to get motivated sometimes!

This is a little blurb from Lara's site (awesome):
Geocaching is a relatively new sport that attracts thousands of players both nationally and internationally. Often described as a high-tech treasure hunt, it utilizes the Global Positioning System receivers and the Internet. The Global Positioning System (GPS) enables people to pinpoint specific geographic locations accurately--anywhere in the world. Once a person has hidden a treasure (or geocache) and recorded the location on the internet, another player can locate the geocache using his or her GPS receiver.

Geocaching is a wonderful activity for families and outdoor enthusiasts. Because of the various difficulty levels in the hunts, people of all abilities can find suitable challenges. Geocaching attracts a diverse group of people.

Taken to another level, The Amazing Geo Race is utilized as a unique and innovative tool for engaging and productive team building. Teammates work together to find hidden treasures or instructions for challenges with only a pinpoint location and a GPS device. Combining problem solving with outdoor adventure, teams work together to find the hidden caches and complete team challenge activities. The high-tech treasure hunt format is designed for people of all fitness levels. It provides groups with a unique experience that enable them to explore team dynamics. A program utilizing The Amazing Geo Race integrates the best of corporate training with outdoor experiential education.

 Our Amazing Geo Race can be personalized and tailored to meet any group's needs. Different elements utilized in our caches are used to encourage and create productive team dynamics, while at the same time developing leadership and team competencies as they relate to the work environment.

Coolest place you've ever traveled and why?
I've been to a very remote area of Mexico, but I can't seem to remember the name. (this was only 12 years ago) I went to take some pictures of a friend surfing. They have 8-9 foot face on their waves and black beaches. The area we stayed has no electricity and is close to reservations that don't allow "gringos". Lovely spot that I wish I could remember the name of.
