  1. I went back to cache and took new readings today and have posted a note in the log on what I found. And to you Majbach when you a problem with a cache you should contact the owner first and not air the dirt in the open like this form. I have looked for caches before and not found them and have sent a note to owner and yes gps's are not perfect and they do give you false readings and if you had contacted me first I would have gone back and checked as I have done now and corrected the situation as I now have done and not have to go through all this. As this being my daughters cache you can consider it mine also as 2 can not have joint ownership of a cache and I used her name instead of mine. Being true to sport I will not delete your log on the cache page but let other cachers be the judge and jury on looking for the cache. I can only say I feel sorry for what you went through but it is all part of the sport and as said before you should always be ready to expect and be ready for problems when you cache hunt. gm100guy
  2. I am glad to see we have this problem solved about the cache I placed. I think that Majbach should should now delete his log on my daughters cache so other cacher's will not be worried about trying to find this cache and I will delete the one I put pointing to this thread. gm100guy

  4. My daughter and I were reading the posts here and she now wants to remove her bug. I told her that as a good cacher we would hope that cachers read the bugs goal and take a bug to help it on the quest for which it was placed and not have someone take it just to have a bug. gm100guy

  6. http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_details.asp?ID=17126 The above cache was placed here by my 12 year old daughter and myself. The cache is off a paved walk way through a park on the Humber River in Toronto. If you look at the pictures I have uploaded about this cache you will see me and my daughter sitting on a tree. This is right by the cache.Also if you look real hard that is my dog there too, I would never take my daughter or walk my dog through the crap this cacher is talking about. This cache is like all my other caches my family have hidden, Just off a main trail in a park. The area I thought was nice walk on Sunday when I helped my daughter place the cache. I do not live near this site and did not place place this cache out side my door, when I placed the cache it looked to me to be a reasonable distance from the yards that are close to it. I checked my topo map of the area and yes it does look like it is close to a street but one must always remember that there is more then 1 way to get to cache. I will place a topo of the cache and mark where you can park. I read the above post to my wife and she and I agree that this cacher should have contacted me directly with his concerns first and then I could have helped him out and gave him directions. I have met some cachers and I hope this does not tarnish my name in the community. I would like to remind all that before you go look for a cache you need to have a plan and maybe just more then the crappy maps they post on this site. Before I do a hunt I check out the area on my Softmap program and look over the area and plan for parking and other events involed in my hunts. I do this as a family activity and I would never place a cache in an area that was descibed by this cacher. When I placed this cache I walked in on the paved path with my dog and daughter and came to the sewer where a side trail went left, walked along it and found a break in the bush and placed the cache near the first falling tree I came across. The dog did not even get tangled in any branched on the leash as I hate when I go one way and the dog goes the other way around a tree. This is our side of the story and I hope it explains what is happening here. The cache in a nice spot that is a quick intecity hunt that you can enjoy. I have no control about the litter you may see but where I walked it was not as descibed in the above post. For the cachers with there comments about young persons placing a cache remember that a adult most likly was with them and that you should not judge a book by its cover. gm100guy and caching family. gm100guy

  13. If you go down a bit in the forums you will see some more questions like yours. They say you can search google.com using the bugs name and it will come up to the bugs page. I have not tried it yet. gm100guy
  14. I think using channel 1 is bad also as not many users ever move the radio off that channel. But as some radio's only have 3 channels we should not go above channel 3. And not use and tones. gm100guy
