Thanks to both for your help! That makes perfect sense now. I found my very first two caches today! One was fairly easy and the other was tricky. Left a nice something for the difficult one! Thanks again

Hey, thanks for your quick reply. It's much appreciated! So you're saying the cache description gets updated each time a person puts a trackable in there? I thought the cache description is the original comments the person logged when created the cache? Do you mean someone updates the log to show they have dropped off a trackable in the cache? For example, I just went to the 'find trackables' option and saw this one - Visited 02/25/2012 cooper troopers took [skirtlifter Cache Geocoin] Skirtlifter Cache Geocoin to ruperts walk - along the river:3 East Midlands, United Kingdom Visit Log but when I checked GC2GFQX I couldn't see anywhere saying a trackable was there? Probably not looking in the right spot.. I find the website quite confusing. thanks again

Hopefully this should work now...

testing...

Hi all, I'm brand new to the world of Geocaching, but from what I've read I want to get involved and I am about to head out to find my fist cache! I wanted to ask a few newbie questions about trackables, so here goes; 1. Can you specifically search for trackables locations using the website? I'd like to help some along, but can't see how you can find where they are? Is it purely chance when you find them? 2. I live in Brighton and I want to get a trackable up to Leicestershire to my Dad then onto my Sister in Wales and finally onto my uncle in Japan. If I find the caches near my family can I explain somewhere that I would like it to eventually end up there? Or, is that complete wishful thinking? Thanks, any help appreciated! Dan
