Colonial Cats

I'm reminded of when I was in the middle of several tree limbs and I opened the foliage to call out to Mrs. Cat, "I can't find it"! Mrs. Cat looked over to me and saw the cache dangling on a line right next to my ear.

I had a nano cache with the magnet missing. I took a small piece of loose bark from a tree and glued to the nano. I hide the cache, nano side down in the fork, of the tree. It blended in perfectly.

That's about an hour and a half north of where I live. There is also a Greece, NY about two hours from here (it's a suburb of Rochester) That's about an hour south of where I grew up.

Score another point to those who bash fellow cachers like baby seals. Let's drive more folks away from the forums.

Yes, this thread should only be about the Internet service called LIVESON.

I do not know this CO personally and I have no personal knowledge of what happened. I only know that I read the logs. Anyone can contact the CO and ask them personally. The other thing I heard, and this is just hearsay, is that this group rented 8 cars and drove off in different directions, with just one person actually visiting each cache and stamping it for the group, then all members of the group claiming finds on all the caches. Why, they are lower than a snake's belly in a wagon rut!

Permission? Forgetaboutit. Just boldly go forth and demand your right to geocache. We don't need no stinking permission. P.S. - I laugh at your permission!

We use to have a cache in the woods like that. There was a natural deep (about 6 inches) depression that would hold a lock n' lock perfectly. I lined the bottom with sticks to give it some drainage. I had the cache for about 4 years with no maintenance problems.

We traded in our Honda Fit for a 2014 Honda CR-V too.

He knows when you are sleeping; he knows when you're awake. He knows when you've been bad or good so be good for goodness sake!

Clever but not cool. This would invite cachers to be law breakers. What if they found this cache and then tried to open a real No Trespassing Sign the next week. Not a good idea.

I use my iPhone 5c at times for geocaching when I am too lazy to load up the GPSr. My Delorme PN-60 is more stable and more accurate.

This thread does belong in the pictures sub-forum since it is predominantly pictures. Just like the "Cemetery Cool Caches" thread.

Agreed.

Either way, it's garbage that I didn't put there, and it's not the geocache. If your log isn't in my logbook, you didn't find the cache. Take it up with the losers who put out garbage at other people's caches if you don't like it. Technically you are completely correct. However, I think you are being heartless.

It's nice and proper that you are taking care of fixing the cache. However, who would think of having that kind of container on or near a cliff! Just asking for trouble.

For starters, a DNF on an unremarkable traditional is always a good sign that the cache needs a visit. Any cache owner can audit the logbook in a cache at any time. In the case of a garbage throw-down cache, there's simply no need to provide people like that with an explanation. They don't deserve the acknowledgement. Throw the garbage away, and delete the finds that aren't in the actual cache. The end. Technically you would be correct in deleting all of the finds. However, remember that all of the cachers who found the throw down after it was thrown down are also victims of the throw down. I wouldn't delete their finds.

Why don't you just change the location of that one stage to somewhere further away from the school. Don't argue with reviewers. You need them on your side.

I left this note on a cache web page for a cache that had a serious throw down problem. "What a great idea. I think I will start carrying plastic film canisters with me to use as replacement caches whenever I can't find those pesky original caches. I see no problem with this since I have the supernatural ability to locate all things sought. If I can't find it, it must be missing. I also have the supernatural ability of knowing where the missing original caches were hidden. Life has gotten so much easier when I realized that rules are met for others and not me."

You could keep the pill bottle in play until you can place a more suitable container. I wouldn't worry about who found what container.

We had over 20 caches when we lived in Williamsburg, VA. Some of my caches were simple, but I had no crap caches. I put them all up for adoption, through our local caching group, when we knew we were moving to Florida. I understand the desire of putting out fresh new caches. However, since Williamsburg is a tourist area, there are always new cachers finding the caches.

Definitely not commercial.

So... have you reported it? Of course he reported it. That would be the right thing to do.

Good for you that you choose to seek caches specifically because of their D/T ratings rather than the fun element but that is not my problem as a cache owner. I choose to find caches for many reasons one of which was D/T ratings. In the last year I have travelled 10s of thousands of miles working on the Jasmer challenge, I do this because I choose to because I have fun. I am not the only one that has found caches strictly for the D/T combo, good for you that you don't care. I have changed my D/T ratings in the past due to changing conditions, finders comments and to try to be more accurate. It is not the COs responsibility to cater to how finders are playing the game. Get over it and move on.

Noe Schitt! However, I would publish them.
