(Emphasis is mine) Minor point - in England (and possibly UK) there is really no such thing as "Common Land" - land owned by all in common - all land is owned by somone or some organisation, and thus will have someone or some committee that could give landowners' permission for a chache to be placed. The term "Common Land" on Dartmoor means land which is owned by someone but grazed by several farmers that have the right to graze that particular common, a common could have as many as 20 "commoners" grazing their animals.

I see the Dartmoor National Park Authority has updated their website to include a page on geocaching, they have a list of guidelines. The first two say: • Always obtain the landowner’s permission before hiding a cache. • Please acknowledge that you have obtained the landowner permission when you publish the cache details on geocaching.com or any other geocaching website. If all caches were removed which didn’t have landowner permission, I doubt if any would be left on Dartmoor. It seems a lot of caches are put out on the back of the letterboxers agreement, maybe it is about time the geocachers got their own agreement sorted out with the authority.

Many years ago long time before geocaching was invented, I have found letterboxes by horseback, does that count?

Closure of the Okehampton Loop Road. This road gives walkers access to OP15 from Okehampton Army camp. The Dartmoor National Park Authority and the Duchy of Cornwall are proposing to close it without public consultation. If you have ever walked from thIS road to find caches please sign the partition. http://www.petitiononline.com/ringroad/ Many thanks

As a waymarker I have entered hundreds of waymarks, I also reviewed hundreds of other people’s waymarks in various categories. To check the co-ordinates I use http://benchmarks.org.uk/map.php and http://www.flashearth.com/ Between these two sites you can get a good idea whether the co-ordinates are correct or not. So now this technology is available to all, why do the reviewers allow caches in inappropriate places such as churches. In the past I have collected a cache under a seat in a church porch, a cache fixed to the back of a drainpipe on a church, and a cache in a parameter wall of a church, the latter is in the process of being moved to a more suitable site. I can not see any vicar/Church Council giving permission for a cache that close to a church. If you must go into an area around a church you would be very welcome to waymark it instead of planting a cache!!

Thanks very much, it's working now.

I asked the same question on the 12 November see Logging Visits by Brentorboxer. I am logging my visits to my waypoints.

You could be right. When I go to Log Options top of the list is "Waymark details" then "edit log" and then "view all logs" and thats it. There is no place to upload photos.

I have looked there but there is no upload image button.

Can anyone tell me how I add a photo to a waymark I have visited. I do not have an upload image button when I log my visit.

Can anyone tell me if the waymark setter can log their visit to that waymark providing they have visited the site. Looking at other logs some have logged their visit and some haven’t.
