Is the Unknown cache in an area that is not very populated? A low population could mean less incentive for somebody to make the trip to find the cache. I tend to find caches on my way to and from places, or make finds convenient to where I am/plan on going. If there's a cache 100 miles away in a community for a population of 100, I will not bother driving a 100 miles to find a cache without a reason/place to be.

If you had trouble finding it, then leave the DNF so people know that the cache is difficult to find. Once you make the find, you can describe how hard it is as well, but with no record of your DNF, geocaches may say the cache is easy to find (when it's not easy to find).

Virtual Geocaches will be coming back soon! I hope!

Geocaches are generally at least 500 feet away from any part for another geocache. But in reality, the law is 528 feet away from a geocache. Sapience Trek is right about the measurements.

Yeah it was working fine after I posted this. Now its saying "Error Occured" when I click on the cache listing!

I click in the map to see the geocache name, but it doesn't show up. IT worked fine for years, but today It isn't working at all. I refreshed the page don't know what happened.

If you qualify, then go find the cache. The day you FIND it is the day you log. Once you qualify, you need to physically visit the cache and sign the log, and the day you sign the log is the day you log the find.

Image the age of people who liked them back then? Oh wait nobody knew about geocaching, and ten years after the ban on new ones Geocaching is more world-wide and known and people have access to finding new ones and getting those numbers of "finds" higher. But the Virtual caches aren't poping up because these are "grandfathered" I've tried the Waymarking site, but it doesn't show a map of any real caches. Just businesses and very private/personally information gets leaked, no thanks! On Virtuals all you gotta do is contact the CO with the answers. simple as that!

Well there is no option on my page to mark trackables as missing.

Yet you've only found about 10% of the available Virtuals in your home State? It looks like you have a fair amount to find, and it begs the question, if you love them so much, why haven't you found more? I am working on finding more. But I've found all the ones near me. And I'm a college student so its hard to make trips to certain places JUST to find a Virtual cache.

Sorry. I have since found this cache afterall.

I think we need to bring back Virtual caches! There are many good ones still active but it would be nice if those newer cachers (or not so new) cachers have a chance to create a Virtual cache.

Cache owners cannot mark a trackable as "missing" only the owner of the trackable itself can.

I've seen duplicate logs many times, even seen people "found it" logs when they actually didn't find it. I'm surprised CO's don't delete these posts. Maybe Groundspeak should step in and let us "report" found it logs that are invalid.

I'm only going to check here for suggestions on where to find hard nanos besides at magnetic things! Don't email or PM! Reply on this forum post!
