I've seen it mentioned in the description. You can probably go into it and mention it.

Contact someone local who got a find before it got shut down and see what they can do

That could be fun, but it could also be seen as stalking.

Make sure your loggings contain a bit more. That way, when the verbiage challenged see them, they will (maybe) get the clue. Also, if you're involved with a "How to" meet & greet, you might bring that up.

As a hunter, I'll look at the pictures, but a lot of the time they don't provide a big spoiler,usually being kinda random. But I guess I'm lucky so far/

1 for me. I have 2 LTFs (last to find) and I got locked into a cache for a few hours and had to cut my way out. on this

The irony would be great!

How is any reviewer supposed to know that the cache is placed on the headstone, or even near one? The reviewers obviously can't physically inspect the caches before publishing them. They can ask questions, but that doesn't mean that they get an honest answer. And caches sometimes migrate during their lifetime... sometimes a good distance. Usally by people reporting the infraction by someone who A: has issues with the CO or B: knows better

I would agree that it might be a good idea to disable it till the time is right. I may suggest that to the CO.

It was moved 33.7 feet. That's why I was thinking just a note would do. The page is @: http://coord.info/GC1JWCH . I was the LTF (last to find) before the move.

Thanks for the thoughts. I was thinking along the line of a note. And yes, it was archived for a bit.

Plus, Sarcasm is a seriously misunderstood & misused tool!

I was going back through some of my old finds & noticed that one has been moved, & had a query that I'm sure has been asked, but I couldn't find. If I were to go find it in the new location, would it be Kosher to log it as a find, post a note on it saying so, or something else? What's the current thoughts on it?

If it's obvious that it was found, then I wouldn't. I'm not an owner, but I've had (& heard of) finds where the log was too full or trashed to be signed.Plus, there maybe some physical reason (IE arthritis) to prevent it.

Originality figures into it as well. If you see an opportunity to try something new, then why not?

But the Reviewer said they could be buried... Sometimes... Prior to seeing your post, I was under the impression that the statement "Caches are never buried" had very little wiggle room. When I see a term like "Never", I figure it means "Never". That's probably my second favorite part of the guidelines, as I agree wholeheartedly with the reasoning behind the wording. So many misinformed land managers fear allowing geocaches on their properties because of the perception that we bury them. With that guideline, we could look the land managers right in the eye and tell them "Absolutely not. There is no way Groundspeak, or its staff of volunteer Reviewers would allow a buried cache to be listed on their website". When I read your post, I learned that I can no longer give that assurance to land managers and keep any shred of integrity, as some Reviewers will allow buried caches, in parks. I think any *new* cache today can not be buried. Where they buried in the past? yes, a number of the low GC number caches were buried. Are these still buried today? yes. If you get on the way back machine the very first guideline was "be sure you have permission". Before that there were no guidelines. Things have tighten up in the last 11 years. That's what I was referring to when I made the comment on it being grandfathered in due to historical significance. The wording was correct.

It was grandfathered because it was hidden before the current regulations against being buried, due to the historic significance of it.

I just saw that on the GCCO FB page. Words cannot describe how I hope it in for (heavy duty) maintenance !

So just pitch a tent!

I would use it or the urban ones. I've seen one used in the city, but not sure I'd use an Ipad in the wild.

I've only got one (mingo).

Just get your cop outfit out & put it on when you go for the find!

One of my guys on my buddies list actually does that. & as been stated, if you look like you belong, then you're less likely to be messed with .
