Awesome.....I knew there weren't any unpublished FTFs on this upcoming trip I do like the idea of the Whistle blow that starts the official 3 mins. timer. Unfortunately my egg timer is only 2mins. Hey...there's a new geocaching invention for the industrious among us. A 3 mins. Rallye Timer!! Talk about useful swag!!
