    Will only work if they have the app or look on the website. Both are not necessary to do adventure labs. But still, it's probably your best option.

    It's only around a month, so maybe I'd sit on it a while to see if someone's back from holiday, maybe finally spot it in-between the seats of the car, or found in a kids jewelry box (you'd be surprised what kids pick up while mom's signing the log) before marking it "missing".  Can't hurt...

    You really have no clue who has it, so the idea is to hope someone comes up with it.

    We've seen many gone earlier, not that it helps... 

    thanks

    How many days has it been? The help center recommends waiting a short time just in case they haven't logged it yet.

    it was logged as found 

    then dropped off at another ,but when the next person went to find not there

    Why wait? it's not in the cache where it shows in inventory. There's no benefit of any kind to leaving it there. just mark it missing.  If anyone ever does log it, nothing changes from their perspective, it just picks up from "unknown" to whatever they do when they log. it. Really.

    just seems a pity it hasnt gone far

    It doesn't look like the picture (I'd guess) because it is a "copy".  Like others, I'd put in the next available cache.  It's still in play...

    We don't know of too many "races" that were ever completed, that "once it leaves your hands, you have no control..." thing.

     

    thanks

    The coin has "this is NOT collectible" , and that is the default on most today.  That means the TO has plans to keep it moving to caches.

    I don't understand how you were able to use the log put it in your collection.  

    You now have three from the same cache in your possession. I'd say maybe it's a good idea if you Dropped all three to other caches.

    One option for good info on how the trackables side game is played is the  Help Center..   Events are good too.

    dropped coin now going to drop others off as soon as can  thanks

    Remember, no matter what you use to locate GZ, the spot he coordinates say to go to, there is a 30 foot error area . When you got to GZ it could be anywhere within 30 feet any direction, if the coordinates are spot on. You can usually rule out certain spots. The more you cache the more you will recognize typical spots for caches.

    learning things thanks very much

    To address the question that was asked: "it depends".

     

     

    The GPS that I considthanks er "best" and bought is the Garmin Foretrex 301 - but I mainly need it for things other than GeoCaching. The feature list that I need is very different to what you need. For me it works because when I use it for caching, I need to know where I am (placing a cache) not where I am going (looking for a cache). This one does not have the option to put in coords and for it to tell you how to get there (actually it does, it's just very time consuming and difficult).

     

    Some people prefer a more complex GPS with a color screen so that they can do Where I Go cache-games as well as regular caches. Some people prefer an LCD screen because they tend to last longer before needing recharge / fresh batteries than a color screen. Some people prefer a simple hiking GPS that can lead them to a waypoint, others prefer one that can be loaded with maps and have you follow known trails. Other features are either fully hand operated so you can just enter your next cache, others prefer to connect it to their computer and load hundreds of caches so that it pops up a warning when they are near a cache a few weeks later.

     

    Here's a nice article with a list of features a GeoCacher would want from their GPS. It's probably a good idea to try and work out what features you need before you go buying one on the recommendation of someone else. The easiest way to find out may be if you go on Facebook and find a local geocaching group near where you live, there may be existing cachers willing to show you their GPS and how they use their features. Almost a "try before you buy".

    many thanks will have a read
