I ran across this via the GC forums. I wonder if this could help with park relations in MN??

They know that there are plenty of other state DNRs that allow geocaching. Their response to that was simply, "we are chartered to be different than everyone else." In fact, Courtland Nelson, one of the highest ups in the DNR w/regards to the State Park system came from Utah (a very geocaching friendly state) and still defers to those that have been in the MN system so that he knows he's following their charter.

So no, it won't make a difference.

Another positive news clip on Geocaching, thanks drat19 for bringing it to our attention.
