Why do the new satellite image mag not fully load? New maps SUCK!

So I finally made a stop today to repair my cache and decided to delete the logs with them placing the new cache. I send them this as nice as possible as reason... Regarding AREA 51 hide, I'm sorry but I don't allow throwdown caches to be logged as a find. I didn't allow the hide so I will be deleting the log. Area 51 is back up and running and you are welcome to come and find the hide like I intended it to be hid. I get this as a responce from one of the members... Hmmm. I guess I am a bit taken back. You had a cache with DNFs dating back to May with confirmation from a previous finder that it was missing and yet no maintenance by you. Then we use a personal container and put one out there at least until you can get out for maintenance and you decide to delete the log? If you did not like where the replacement was, that is cool and you can re-hide but to delete the log? If the roles were reversed, I would have said "Thanks" and "much appreciated" rather than taking the steps you did. Not cool. Later. So I respond.. Well, sorry to disappoint you that you didn't get a smilie but I never asked for you to place one but you had the nerve to do so, so you could just chalk it up as another find. I may be newer to this game and I would never have the nerve to just place a cache down cause I couldn't find it or there was a string of DNFs. It would be a different story if my container was broke or the logs were wet or missing. I applaud you for taking the time to help out others repair their caches as I do the same when possible. P.S. my cache was still there and I did retrieve it today but it was very tough to do so. So I MADE a new one and placed a few feet away from the original location but the same type of hide. Who's to say those few DNFs before the last one just didn't find my location??? I try to maintain my caches as fast as I can but there is other things more important sometimes like a family, health and a job! And if roles were reversed I would have marked down a DNF or even not gone after a temporarily disabled cache (they usually are for a reason!). So not cool on your part to take it upon yourself to replace peoples hides without there permission! Later,

I have been wondering about this lately! I was at a LPS and it was missing, a couple pulled up and placed a new 35mm canister under it. Signed the log and said they will contact the CO. I personally didn't think this is right just to get a smiley but the CO accepted it as she didn't have time to go replace it. It also was a pretty obvious hide. Now fast forward to one of my hides that I disabled due to the fact that someone glued the PVC fence post cap down so now the cache is not retrievable. I have not been able to get out there to fix or find a new spot. A cacher e-mailed me that they were coming out to hit up the bike trail and offered to replace for me. I didn't respond back due to being a unique hide and how I attach to the cap. Low and behold they claimed as a find after they put out a bison tube on the other side of the path and wrote down new cords in their post!!!!! WTF really?? Granted it was nice of them to offer and they did maintain some wet/full logs along the path but to place a new cache and then have the balls to claim as a find too?? Here is a brief part of the their log... (We saw that a previous log stated that a prior finder came back and did not find it and that the hiding spot was not accessible. We replaced the cache (with a bison tube) in a spot worthy. Here are coords. ) Can't wait to go out and fix mine and grab the bison tube and re-hide somewhere else for myself!

Here is our first cache we ever made or placed! The kids helped decorate it... Here is where the log is hidden! I have a few more coming too... Iggy

Mongo he means just south of Chicago! Lake County IN. E-mail me if you want to go sometime Hector. I do take the kids alot though! Iggy

Thank you so much, I looked and searched for something yesterday and could not come up with anything online. I activated and it's ready to go, now just to get teh cache done! Thanks again, Iggy

Found a live bullet to a shotgun in one. Took it out and left nothing!

I bought some Travel Bug tags back in the fall and I am very new to this. Seems there should have been some activation codes to go along with them and I don't know where to find them. How can I get the activation codes for the 5 tags we have? I have the actual tag and copy tags but no paper work to go along with them anymore. Thanks, Iggy
