Can't help but wonder if any of these people were cachers... I know a number are members of the NY/NJ trail conference...let this be a reminder to us all.
-
Email Jeremy or the crew... they'll fix it for you. I had a TB in a traveling cache not too long ago. Before temporary deactivation was possible I had changed the coordinates for the traveling cache to N 00 00.00 W 00 00.00.....that really tacked on the miles to the TB's map... he fixed it up right away.
Good Luck! -

Dx...
Of course it's a great idea and I'd be thrilled to help again... just hitting my busy period this month so I'm slow in responding. I actually have another project I'd like to talk to you about one of these days too but don't have the time right now to go into it.

I know it's tough but be patient, keep planting caches and spreading the word. Eventually it will catch on. People that read the same article as you may have been initially discouraged by seeing there weren't many in the area.....if they start seeing them pop up it may stir their interest enough to get them out there hunting. Something else you may want to think of trying is planting a traveling cache on the outskirts of a more active area... then if the cache get picked up and moved you can still have the fun of reading about it's journey. Gilbert's Stash is such a traveling cache... the thing with traveling caches is that you must keep up the communication to keep it posting correctly... but it may be the extra time and attention that you need right now to feel apart of the geocaching community. Just a thought! Good Luck to you and Happy caching!

Walmart also does the digital developing.

oops... I take that back. It looks like Gilbert was retrieved this am. I will update here again when he lands in a new neck of the woods. Hope he moves closer to you MissJenn and Notags.

MissJenn,
I haven't heard back from CCCooperAgency about any possible hints but I'll let you know as soon as I hear anything.

I do agree that this would be a great idea. The caches that I have set up with cooperation from the parks are great. But honestly there's still something missing... I need to email the land use managers and ask if I may use them as a contact person to keep the door of communication open to the geocaching community. I don't want to become the local georat by reporting any newly placed caches.... but I would like people to realize that geocaching can be done with the parks support and enthusiasm.
It would be nice to have a new feature added that would collect this data. Just a couple of quick optional questions, Something like:
Park system/land owner identification
Contact email and/or phone number
Permit required Y/N
Special instructions
These being optional questions asked on a cache submission form. It does make sense that this information would be best collected and offered for viewing by geocaching.com It also does sound like a hefty project for a quickly growing and changing overworked website. How about giving us an idea though... is it something you geopuppets forsee in the future? or is it an area the website is trying not to get too involved with, leaving it more in the hands of local geo-associations? With more and more of us trying to legitamize and authorize cache placements it would be a very helpful bit of data to be able to share

Or is it just the homepage that is not showing new listings. The new caches on the homepage have not changed for over 24 hours now. When I go to do a state search caches that have been approved more recently then those on the front page show up. Were those predated or am I just being picky here or did I miss something?

Until they come up with another cache size such as mini that has been suggested, I believe it's a safer bet to call it a micro than a regular.

Gilbert has landed At Governor Dick (Lebanon Co.), Pennsylvania. Gilbert's Stash is a traveling cache that is powered by the Travel Bug Gilbert Goes Walkabout. In Gilberts satchel he carries his tradeables in a mini cache (decon) type container. Come meet Gilbert!
I will update this thread as he moves to new areas to announce his arrival.

So does anyone know what happened?
-
You'll never know until you try! Some go bad, some have great fun. We have about as much control over them as we do over our children we try to raise to be good people. Is it worth the effort, investment and frustrations? I used to say get a puppy first to test your resilience... now I think I'll say get a TB first ....work your way up ;-)

Click on the persons profile... then click on hidden or found... recent update is that it now shows you the date they found them.
-
If you enter your home coordinates in your profile it will bring to the My Cache page a search with distance from those coordinates.

I'd love to see pics of the frog shrine... any available?

Sorry, don't know records but I just wanted to say .... Excellent TB story
Love the pictures. So honestly now Capt... what do the guys say when you pull out darth and start playing with him in the cockpit?... hehehe I tried helping out an army guy TB a while back and felt pretty silly stopping traffic at the gates to West Point so I could get a pic of him in front of the gates, but what a blast. Haven't had that much fun alone playing with a toy since I was a kid -

Keep in mind that spring is a busy time of year. Between weddings, graduations, birthdays, confirmations/communions, baseball, soccer I know that I don't get enough time to do what I enjoy doing.
