"Best" and "cheap" are usually mutually exclusive.

I just came across this very same situation. A cache originally placed in 7/23, which I found in 12/23, went missing and the CO replaced it in 3/24, changing the placed date to 3/24. So how did I find it three months before it was placed?

How about a friend or family member. (non-cacher)? -
Geocaching Terms and Lingo
NanCycle replied to Dr. Bunsen Honeydew's topic in General geocaching topics
Ditto. (Not really a geocaching term, but I liked "plasma bandits." -
I had a cache in a local park which was moved by the groundskeepers when they cut down a lot of undergrowth. I then had to "find" the cache -- and bring a ladder to retrieve it. Afterwards I archived it.

Get your self out and find those caches.

List maintenance does not work in SAFARI. I have had success using CHROME.

1) Do not use maps!! Maps are good for checking that your coordinates are reasonable , but for actually taking coordinates use a good GPS coordinates app or a handheld GPS unit. 2) Someone mentioned different format--that would be my guess also.

You can always ask the CO for help. As creator of several puzzle caches, I would want to know what you have already tried; then I am always willing to give a push in the right direction. If the CO is unresponsive, you can ask a previous finder.

I also have been unable to manage lists in Safari. Switch to Chrome and they work fine.

Sometimes things take a little while to get caught up. Also logging out and then logging back in solves a lot of issues.

Cache sizes and any additional camoflage
NanCycle replied to Deepdiggingmole's topic in General geocaching topics
One of my trackables was placed in a remote cache in January 2017. The cache has had 3 Finds and an OM since then. No one has mentioned the presence of a trackable in the cache. Another was placed in a cache in February 2018. No Finds since then. I have marked both of these as Missing. -
Having passed my 81st birthday and 20th cacheversary, a lot has changed. I used to be an avid cyclist, but have given up bike riding altogether, because of balance issues and fear of falling. I used to enjoy hiking, but now I'm limited to very short (maybe half a mile at most) walks on a basically level surface. I'm just glad that I can get out at all; I know a lot of people my age who can barely walk around their homes.

You can log a DROP in one of the caches you own, then you'll be able to mark it MISSING.

How do I edit a Route that I have already created?
NanCycle replied to Skyhawker's topic in How do I...?
If you are missing something, so am I. I know it used to not work at all, maybe it still doesn't--I haven't tried it for years. Start over. -
No "NM", when not finding a cache?
NanCycle replied to baer2006's topic in General geocaching topics
Sounds like a "throw-down" to me. -
The Owner Maintenance log is supposed to be used when the CO has performed some sort of maintenance, not just thinking about it. "I will get out there this week" is properly a WRITE NOTE not an OWNER MAINTENANCE.

Would this be considered cheating or would it be okay?
NanCycle replied to RunYell's topic in General geocaching topics
IMO, "joint" accounts between spouses are iffy, all others are a bad idea. (I originally wrote "cheating" but changed it to "bad idea")
