I just wanted to see what others think about this.

A group of four cachers visited several caches. They have a “team stamp” without any of their names on it, just initials of their unregistered team name. Ok or not?

I would not bother, HQ does not care

I have a friend that lives in Yuma and he has never mentioned this. What is the definition of State Trust Land. here is a link that shows all land typs: My link

Bummer news re: state trust land (just found out about this after submitting a new cache: -------------------------- Hello Geocaches on Arizona state trust land (ASTL) are not allowed to be published anymore. This also includes cache listings with bogus coordinates/waypoints that list on ASTL. A decision from the land managers has not yet been finalized on the existing caches that are on ASTL. The Natural Resource Manager has said, "Cachers seem to think that as long as they have a recreational permit from the department that they are free to place caches. The permit application is very specific about placing/leaving items on trust land: The Permittee shall not …cause any refuse or allow any other foreign objects to be deposited on State Trust Land. Here is a link to the complete application: RecreationPermit So, while we greatly appreciate the fact that many cachers have taken the time to obtain a recreational use permit, caching is not an approved form of recreation. Therefore, cachers are not abiding by your placement requirements when placing their caches." You can contact the Natural Resource Manager of the Environmental Resources & Trespass Section if you have any further questions on this land issue and their rules. Contact information can be found at their website Arizona State Land Department. Groundspeak respects the wishes of land managers and land owners. The rules mentioned above are their rules, belonging neither to the reviewers nor to Groundspeak. Responsibility for meeting these rules rests with the cache owner and responsibility for enforcement of those rules rests with the land manager. Thank you. -------------- Yes I received the same message, I wonder how long it will take for them to reach a verdict? How many caches do you think are on ASTL? imagine the hit geocaching will take if they all have to be removed. JIM
