Haha, thats friken priceless... I hear ya... But back on topic, if I were in the situation where I had a cache and someone could not reach it but e-mailed me or posted something that they went to the cords saw it, gave me a desc of it (where and how it was hid) and maybe posted a pic of it, I think I'd go ahead and let them log it and not lose any sleep... This ""Geocaching"" is many things to many people.... To me, one of the things it is is a stress releiver and Fun!!! I can't depribe someone a few minutes of enjoyment, because of a few inches.... Let'em have it... Whats it hurt... But thats just me... I'm a softie on some things.. Yes, I usually cache with taller people but it just happened that I was alone the day I found it. My only other comment on this is to the O.P. (Oringal Poster), do you have any friends you can take with you caching that might be able to help with some of the reaching??? If not, Sadly, I think you will be really limited in this game/hobby/whatever we want to call it,because of where and how so many are hidden...

Hi, carolehu I hope that somewhere in this thread you were satisfied by the various answers and opinions that were given. Well done on going back there and signing the actual log - I hope you got the warm, fuzzy feeling Happy Caching MrsB Thanks for asking. I had no idea I would start such a storm with my question. I just want to cache. I seems like such a nice way to be outside and find wonderful places. I am glad I went back and persevered and was able to finally get it (4th time there). C

OK., OK. So I t with a step stool and with great difficulty retrieved it and signed it.

It's up to the cache owner. It's quite traditional to require that the log book be signed. If you explained the circumstances, I'd be surprised if the cache owner didn't let you make an exception to the rule. Could you use a grabber thing to help grab them when they are up high? Grabber thing would not work in this cache.

I am vertically challenged and sometimes I am unable to retrieve the cache. I will have touched it however. I did this today and logged that I had touched it but couldn't retrieve it. I got an email from the owner saying I couldn't count it unless I signed. Is this correct?

May I ask how? Do you use the iPod contact list (vcard) or some other method? thanks in advance, Carole
