    Oops. How To Log A Subscriber-only Cache

    in General geocaching topics

    Posted

    Super Bowl? False syllogism.

     

    I cache with my kids. They have their own accounts. There is no need for me to pay for multiple PMs just so we can all log the caches we find together.

     

    Please bring back the workaround. So far my girls have 10 caches between them that they cannot log.

    Ahhh GrassHopper,,,,exactly...thats why they can't log it....they aren't PM's....that's one of the things that is wrong in this country...always looking for something free. They know they found it with you....just move on and teach them of the benifits of rules. Have Fun!!!!!

    Who would have ever thought that people would steal Travel Bugs. Well after reading this link the photo on my bug page TB2132A "Beijing Olympic's 2008 went from this and I made it look like this

     

    Thanks for all of the good pointers! This thread has been a big help!!

     

    why would you take it upon yourself to take something off a travel bug, the red thingy? did you ask the owner first? i dunno, but if someone decided to "upgrade" my bug and took something off i liked, i would be a bit miffed.

     

    a thought,

    Ahhhh...I am the Owner!!!! Did you not read my post...I said "Well after reading this link the photo on my bug page TB2132A " went from this...where it had the cute little red thing...to this...where I took it off so it wouldn't be snatched.

    Painting/camouflaging Cache Boxes

    I need an answer soon, cause I need to do this to a cache that has had a lot of complaints about being too exposed. I thought that I would use the camo duct tape, but the cloth stuff would be a lot better for this cache. It is is in a very wet area, and I need to be sure that the material will stay on well.

     

    This cache is several hours away from me, and I am hoping to visit it in a few days. But it has to last a while, since I don't travel to it more than once a month, or once every other month.

     

    Thanks. :rolleyes:

    I've bought old used Camo type clothing (t-shirts, shorts, etc.) at garage sales and used that cloth to camo various types of containers. I use 3M 77 spray adhesive then cut the cloth and apply it to the container. Works pretty good for me. Holds up in the rain too.

    And if the hider doesn't hide in a manner that allows a finder to "avoid leaving any lastig impacts", how is it that the finder accomplishes that goal?

    It's just common sense man! Just because something is hidden or hanging from a branch in a tree or bush don't mean the "Finder" should tear off bark and rip branches off just to find the micro. Can you spell common sense!

    Flashlights as Cache Containers?

    in General geocaching topics

    Unless designed as a waterproof light - just not going to make the best container.

     

    Go with the 88 cent waterproof match containers with an O ring from Wal-Mart.

     

    I think it probably depends alot on your local environment. Here is SoCal, we usually don't get alot of rain, however this year is close to a record setter.

     

    When I place a cache I try for a more unique fun type of a cache and container. I can probably do that because of our weather here and get away with it. Even with the heavy rains that we've had this winter the cache that Crawil found yesterday is bone dry, in fact when I retireved it today it was raining. I have it right here on the table next to me....I have alittle camo touch up to do.
