| | | Posted by Carmen_Sandiego Greetings!
One of my favorite things is obsessively researching potential new spots. I love uncovering something that may not be well-known and then learning every last little thing about the history of the property. Scouting it out early morning/broad daylight/after dark to learn its little secrets and devise an approach. For me, the planning is almost as fun as the actual conquest. Almost.
| Hello Carmen, and welcome to the local scene. Also, I love your philosophy in regards to exploring. I totally agree with you that the process of discovering a location (especially a fresh one) and taking part i the subsequent on-site, and off-site research (IE hours at the history museum, geological society etc) Is just an essential piece of the puzzle. Many times the scouting and research end up actually being more enjoyable than the infiltration part. It's been said a billion times but, the occasions on which I receive "tours" of locations from other explorers just seem to be missing something. And they are (although there are situations when this approach is neccesary). A motivated explorer often will end up investing more time into the "recon" than the actual time spent exploring. Anyways, I apologize for the run on-ness of the previous paragraph. Just wanted to say welcome. Perhaps we will bump into each other at some point. I actually rarely get out anymore, and when I do, 95% of the time it's solo. Just to clear a couple things up with the other locals, it is not you guys I am avoiding. In short, I switched to exploring the insides of textbooks lately instead, and those who know me well know the other half. I do have some serious separation anxiety/withdrawal as a result of the lack of FRL-air and quality time with Gastby, and the rest of you. BTW Carmen,proper analysis of fresh snow on the ground at a location can tell you a hell of a lot about location traffic too, the presence of security/security patrol routes, and other types of traffic. I'm sure you are aware of this already, but I feel like many explorers only think about snow as being a tactical disadvantage.
