heart shaped caches from Google Maps or Earth

[+KJcachers]

anybody know or remember the series of caches that if looked at from Google Maps or Google Earth made the shape of a heart? I remember seeing it in a thread once but can't find it.

Zoom out a little to see the entire heart.

There is a baseball diamond, down by Las Vagas I believe.

This one is a smiley of smileys (at least when you are done)

Around my area, one cacher created an entire series based on the game of Clue. Using 54 caches, he spelled C L U E. Of course some out of town cachers had a little fun, and spelled the letters N and O so the map now says NO CLUE .

In my area, this guy was drawing smileys. If he had been finding instead of hiding, he might still be free today.

Question about these 'geo-art' cache series - are the coords generally as accurate as any other cache, or do people tend to fudge them a bit to keep the design correct??

All of the caches I found were dead on. The CLUE series had each cache hidden .5 miles apart. When you are placing caches next to roads that only run NSEW, the design stays fairly straight.

I would assume that if you got the coords for each cache and plotted them you would find the design to be imperfect. The look of perfection comes from the size of the icons never changing and the zoom level. There is a lot of room for error working with long distance ~~~edit~~~ dot matrix drawing.

Strange... even though I live on the east coast, I realized after looking at the map that I have driven through that exact area off Rte. 70 in UT twice in the past 18 months. ...small world!

Thanks! That's the one I was looking for!

Now that is cool! I think I'll try that around here

These heart-shaped patterns formed by cache hides are cute; looking at them, it appears almost as if an occult hand had reached down from above and hidden each one in precisely the right place! Amazing!
