The LonelyCache Project needs a logo. I could spend thousands of dollars hiring a consultant but thought I'd see what we can come up with here first :)

I'm no good with graphics and don't have the tools so if anyone wants to throw something out, fantastic!

Here's some ideas I have:
  • Cache box with a rattlesnake on it
  • Mountains
  • Geocacher(s) on mountain

I also like the mountains idea. Possibly include a hiker some were in the logo too.

And a 4x4?
Snowshoes? (ok, that's a stretch)

How about the mountain with a hiker on top and a 4X at the bottom?

I realize that pretty much all of us are in the mountain west, so we like mountains. However, I see this site eventually expanding out of the western US. While mountains are certainly a good icon for wilderness, is there something more generic?

That wouldn't be true for my 4x4!

How about something more navigational, like a compass rose or a generic excerpt from a Topo map?

Could make it a 4x4 partially buried half way up! As in pics I've seen of a certain Nevada cache. :D

I like the Topo map idea, maybe with a single geocache icon on it. Or how about a photo or graphic of somebody hiking alone in the woods?

How about including 4X4, dirt bike, mountain bike, hot air ballon (for our roping friends), hiker and muggle :D . Since we all use different means of exploring I like the Topo scene possibly with a "Lonely" cache icon.

With some personal follow up with what jcanyoneer posted, I threw together this:

Obviously it can be greatly improved but it's an idea. I think I'd like to modify so that the LCP forms a peak with the top the center of the P. jcanyoneer mentioned he'd like to see the L be a lake.

Sounds like an interesting concept; looking forward to seeing the next couple versions...

I have a web/graphic designer buddy who said he's willing to help out. He's in the middle of a house move at the moment but I'm looking forward to when we can get some of his bandwidth.
