Link to cache pages from google maps is not working.
On google maps when it shows caches you click on a cache that wish to see and all the happens
is (if you hover over you get name and GC No.) requesting cache description for about 2 seconds
then nothing thats it. The map and everything still works find you just can't get to the cache info or
page.

OK sick of posting notes on local cache pages or even emailing there owners re a problem
and nothing been done. There needs to be a better way to control the trash out there.
Here are a few examples
Too TwistedGCXYTW
Derros WorkGC115T6
Pro Utilitate HominumGC14MRG
Charlee's PlanesGCQ6EC
Look left, look right!GC10ZYP
South Side.GCT5YM
FROG HOLLOWGCW055
Under the OverGCZRH3
These are only a few of the disabled or needs maintenance caches just within the local area.
Is there a better way to clean up out there. There is even one cache that was archived after this
note posted by another cacher
-The lid is cracked along the seal and the cache was full of water.
The Log book is soaked.This one NEEDS ATTENTION ASAP.
Two weeks later while driving pass we stopped by because there sitting in the open was the
cache container sitting out in the open after the owner posted this note and archived it.
-fix maybe
April 2Then a couple of days later There rubbish left for others to clean up.
-Bye
April 7And no it wasn't along way from anywhere, about 10 min drive from town on a main road.
How long after an event before it should be archived?
Who is responsable for the Coins and Bugs going in and out?

Problem with when you print out a copy of any cache page it cuts off the left hand side of the page
The word Difficulty: ***** Terrain:*****
you can only read culty:***** Terrain:*****
So there is alot missing.

This has been an ongoing problem where it prints the top right map but not the bottem main map.
In printer freindly copy all it prints is a grey square.

I noticed a cache issue back in April and PM the owner. Here is a Found log by another cacher re the same.

April 27 by ........................... After figuring out they had put a new fence in her way eldest Geodaughter was on a mission to find her 2nd cache
well I am surprised that you didn't hear her from your place when she had it in her hot little hands.
Regards
So in passing next time I noted this issue again on the cache page

July 20 by <A style="TEXT-DECORATION: underline" name=48928978>JABs (975 found)Noticed again that passing this way that the whole area has been fenced off. We think someone now owns this parcel of land. A check by the owner is in order.
Some owners just don't care and this was his responce.

Have just spent a lot of time reading as many posts as possible but still can't find the
one I have read before. Can any one remember where I can find the link to a group of
caches that dare you not to find them?
Hmmm... would that be"dare you not to find them" or would that be "dare you to find them"?
That would be them- now just a link to there GC.

Its secret code to the reviewers. you should not be able to see it. Obviously since you can we need to fix it. It contains the marching orders for the reviewers. Its all part of the plan to achieve world domination through subversive religion masquerading as science.
Message received. Task Force Bullfrog has been activated and we are launching Plan Lily Pad this evening. We will start with the puzzle caches just like you said.LOL

Hi from downunder,
Our youngest was only 6 months when we started cacheing and othen we used a backpack carrier. There was many trails we where able to take our pram on aswell.
I just have to say it does slow you down but that is a great thing as you will end up enjoying more of what is around you.
Take care and enjoy.
