  1. One of my caches SURPRISE! (GC30YBT) started getting DNF logs. After some investigating and some very helpful cachers I found a different ammo box hidden near the correct location for my cache that contained my caches logbook. Someone had swapped a large repainted ammo box for a smaller one, and hidden it down a different hole that required a retrival tool.

     

    The rehiding in the wrong place I can understand, but why would someone change the ammo box for a smaller one? If they wanted to steal it they're the most considerate non-theives ever, and if it was the maintainence fairy how did I earn such favour.

     

    Thoughts?

  2. Hey,

    I had a play with QR codes and generators awhile back.

    I also made some prototype ones using HAMA beads (heat melt plastic beads, arranged using a peg board, a kids toy in the UK)

    Found encoding anything large in them to be cumbersome, but maybe worth thinking about as the end results are tough, waterproof and if you epoxied a dog tag to the back would probably serve quite well.
