ok I went back to the scene of the crime and picked up where I left off, I found the 2nd stage without incident and took off for stage 3, searched for about 10 min and then found at the cords under a rock in a softball sized hole about 6 condoms ( in their wrappers thank goodness) I figured someone must have muggled the micro so I gave up the hunt, I posted a dnf and contacted the owner about what and where I had found he informed me that the cache should have been over about 8 ft from where I found someones stash. I will return and look some more.
This is my DNF critera, if I arrive at the scene of the cords and begin to search and don't sign the log I will post a dnf whether I look for 1 min. or 3 hrs.
Now If I arrive at the cords such as in a drive by and there are a ton of people there and I don't begin to search I just don't log anything.
So if I start searching and don't find its a DNF for me.
