I recently had the pleasure of creating my first adventure lab. It was a VERY fun experience but I can't help but noting it's a bit disconnected from some of the things I really enjoy about hiding geocaches. I don't receive notification that someone has completed it, nor the reviews and ratings. i can't even readily look up the activity nor edit it -- i neglected to include the estimate for how long it would it take and now I can't add that. Does anyone know if there is (1) a good dashboard for adventure lab activity/ownership; (2) a better way to edit existing adventure labs; and (3) any plans to integrate adventure labs into the main geocaching dashboards?

Oh, good to know! Thanks! I think a couple of the relevant caches do need archiving but I'll try getting in touch with the CO first.

Hi all, We're a bit new to this and have some questions about caches that need maintenance. I understand that the reviewers might normally contact COs if there is a run of DNFs or maintenance reports but we were recently in a area where there were a number of these - DNFs stretching back several years, or damaged caches that have been repeatedly reported (again for years). Would you reach out to the CO first (I assume they get the notifications....) or ask for review? Also is it ok to do some of your own maintenance without the CO's permission? I assume adding a new log when the old one is full is fine, but what if there isn't room for both? And what if the old is so damaged it's unreadable - can it be removed? Is it permissible to replace a damaged container using one of comparable size? Thanks so much for the advice and all the fun!!! -Liz

Hello from California! We're a pair of cachers operating for about 1.5 months now. I remember my uncle telling me about geocaching 18-19 years ago, and now that I've taken it up I've realized he must have been one of the originals! Loving that caching connects us all in this secret hidden world - both hidden caches and hidden spots that we wouldn't otherwise notice. Thanks for the community!
