Bear and Ragged

Either. There's a photograph of your trackable somewhere on the site Or. Someone is entering random numbers/has a computer programme to enter random numbers, and yours came up. Or. Benefit of doubt, they've entered the wrong number on a trackable they have seen.

Also logs in a similar way on the apps (depending on which app you use) log a Found It/DNF/Write Note THEN log Needs Maintenance with Report a Problem.

GSAK was a free to use, but got a Nag screen after the trial period to try to get you registered It's now free, no payment needed.

As the caches have got smaller, it's harder to find a cache large enough. I rarely retrieve a trackable (if I find one!) unless I feel the cache isn't safe to leave it there, or it's been there for a long time.

Exact Replicas. (As an officer, depending on how you write it, I think I'd accept it. )

But. As the caches are Premium Member Only, can a non-PM owner edit the cache page or add logs eg Temp Disable/Owner Maintenance?

Log out, log back in. Usually works. Also, at this time, give it a little time to go through the system. (The site is showing you as PM, so things 'should' have gone through...)

Some areas may not want any 'extra' footfall in the area you have for the Earthcache. If the authorities are aware that extra footfall could cause damage they could ask you to move things, or ask different questions. (Also, they may be able to give you information to help you with your Earthcache!)

Depending on which app is used, most of the apps are restricted on number of caches and D/T and types of cache. Easier/better to pay for Premium and see more in your area that are close to you.

... And then you get the cachers that get the First To Find on a new cache, and give it a Favourite Point - because they are FTF!

Worth a look here >

If you're viewing the Waymarks on a web browser, it's always worth clicking on view nearest Waymarks. The Waymarks will then be listed and visible if they have the same coordinates.

Are they in the same Waymark category or different ones? If different, worth the practice, as you say. I do try to get 'new' icons on the category grid, for Waymarks posted, and Waymarks visited. (Also -back in the day- there used to be 'Grid Bingo' with all the different icons on the grid. Not sure if it's still played with so many more categories!)

Does the bridge move? (Drawbridge/swingbridge etc) That's a category!

We're a friendly bunch. (Or try to be!) Pick the categories you have an interest in, and learn the requirements for posting a waymark. (Take LOADS of photos, it often gets most of the information required, even if they are not used on the listing!) I have my favourite categories, and have waymarks all over the UK, but as more people get interested I find it's getting to a point I do the photos to make it a waymark and someone's beaten me to it! Never mind, it's still a visit.

And. Some older categories had the requirement that a photograph of you/your GPS is required when logging a visit... This seems to be no longer required, but IS still in the Visit Requirements.

A local cacher set a multicache, counting items around a structure I'd waymarked previously. Whilst you couldn't see all the items in one photo, they were equally spaced, so you could make an 'educated guess' at how many! There are caches out there, that if a cacher were ever to click on "Nearest Waymarks" they might save a little bit of leg work. Very few (if any!) bother. If I know there's a cache that uses information on something Im Waymarking, I try to avoid revealing that information.

1. Yes. Check out the TBs page. It will show the caches it has been to, and the logs. TBs are to "Travel" it doesn't really matter if it goes to a cache it has already been to! 2. They can go in any cache (that is large enough to take it!) but if a cache or description says "No TBs" please respect that, as the cache owner may know that the TB wont be safe in there.

Cache In Trash Out® Season 1: CITO Season 1 has been extended through August 31, 2020.

No thanks. I can see it being abused with "Found It" but didn't find it logs, or throwdowns, to get the 'prize' souvenier...

What map. On the website, or on a phone app? If the cache has been Temporary Disabled, it might not show on some apps, and if it's been Archived it wont show at all, either on the website or an app.

The GAGB (Geocaching Association of Great Britain) have posted this on their Facebook page... Adventure Labs New deadline: August 31, 2020 In response to COVID-19, Geocaching HQ is extending the deadline to August 31, 2020 for all Adventure Labs to go public. HQ will monitor changes over the next few months to see if further adjustments are needed. There is no need to write in to request an extension. Virtual Reward 2.0 New deadline: December 31, 2020 In response to COVID-19, Geocaching HQ is extending the deadline for all unpublished Virtual Reward 2.0 Caches to be submitted for publication to December 31, 2020. HQ will soon post this information on all unpublished cache pages. Must be on a Groundspeak website/page somewhere?

Or, has your Found log been deleted? (You should get an email, if the CO has deleted a log.)

Or. Start a new cache page, set it as a Multi, then copy and paste from your exsisting page.

It's real and it's spectacular. Hows that? I do use it, it is good!
