Instead of radio buttons, maybe a Personal Note for each log would do. The Cache Owner could keep notes for whatever purpose he chooses, and such notes could be listed and sorted. The note may be visible only to the CO. Or be publicly readable if that works better, talk amongst yourselves...

Guaranteed disappointment
funkymunkyzone replied to barefootjeff's topic in General geocaching topics
Careful GE6000, last time I brought this up, I got royally shot down, tarred and feathered by the purists who told me that new players should buy a GPSr and use the website! But no, I 100% agree with you. Some years back I was trying to introduce a new player - they were standing on top of a mountain and I was on the phone to them. I knew there was a cache within 10 or 20m of them, so I was trying to talk them through loading it up in the app so they could find it, with my remote assistance. They were an active hiker, so geocaching would have been a good fit. The app told them the cache didn't exist (because they weren't a premium member, so being a T3 or thereabouts, it was hidden entirely from them). It makes no sense to force them to use the website, see some coordinates and not be able to do anything with them on their phone standing on top of a mountain, when the app could be perfectly capable of introducing, and luring them, into the game. Instead, they walked away - no, not because they give up easily, but because it was apparent the game didn't want them to play. I haven't checked lately if anything has changed for new basic players in the app, but it sounds like it's still unnecessarily restrictive. -
That sounds like an awesome project—I love the idea of a full power trail of 5.0 difficulty hides! One idea that came to mind for something unique and challenging is this: A camouflaged cache placed high up in a tall tree. Not just slightly out of reach, but something that requires climbing gear or a clever retrieval tool. You could disguise it as part of the tree—like a knot, a chunk of bark, or even a fake bird’s nest—to make spotting it just as tricky as reaching it. It would definitely push the “5.0” boundary both physically and mentally. And if placed in a safe location (like a climbable tree away from busy paths), it could be an epic part of the trail that people talk about long after. Other ideas could be: A cache hidden inside a hollow log or stump with a super well-hidden latch A gadget cache that needs tools or a sequence to open A fake utility box or sprinkler head that blends perfectly into the surroundings Can’t wait to see what you come up with—love that you’re aiming for variety instead of repeating one trick. Keep us posted on your hides!

On the Challenge Talk Podcast last night there was a call for 1000 challenges to be published in June. Challenge GeoArt sprung to mind as my next project, and boy, a QR code GeoArt would be quite something. It begs the question: Is a QR code GeoArt even possible and what are the implications / limitations? You would want to do a micro QR code that was 21x21 pixels or something similar. All capitals and using a tinyurl.com link with as many empty blank pixels as possible allows you the fewest pixels / challenges needed. My current design is 217 pixels. The page you link to could be an issue since it could be modified to something the reviewers didn't approve. In my case I plant to update statistics on challenges, so there will be modifications, but all on par with the original content. It is possible a QR GeoArt could lead to something less savory, like a bad soccer team fan page. As with any large GeoArt, where to have it becomes a real challenge. Agricultural roads seem an easy choice, but lots of challenges puts a fair amount of Geo-traffic on roads that often are overran with harvest trucks, large farming equipment taking up both sides, and unimproved roads. Then you have how touchy farmers can be with people loitering around their equipment. Perhaps flat public land wilderness or sagebrush steppe, though that makes for an inconvenient series of hikes to get it all. Whaddaya think?

Unfortunately the Help Centre page on cache ratings is a bit ambiguous on this: At the top it says "Physical effort needed to arrive at coordinates and sign the logbook" but the individual desciprions up to and including terrain 3.5 talk exclusively about the hike.

Well I managed to get the Finder souvenir with half a day to spare, but talk about doing it the hard way! With no unfound caches close by, I spent last night poring over the map and decided on a couple of fairly easy traditionals in central Sydney I hadn't done yet. I set off by train this morning, not realising that trackwork this weekend meant they weren't running all the way to the city, so I ended up on a crowded metro for the last part of the journey, then an even more crowded light rail to get me close to the caches. After battling through yet more crowds on foot, I reached one of the caches only to find a couple of muggle families sitting virtually on top of it eating lunch. Not wanting to wait, I set off for the other cache a few hundred metres away and fortunately in a much more muggle-free spot. Phew! For the Hider souvenir, I'm starting to put together a multi I've been mulling over for some time. There's a scenic headland that's been opened up by a recently archived 2010 cache so I went exploring a week or so back but ran out of daylight, then it rained almost non-stop for a week. I got back out there yesterday afternoon, confirming my two waypoint locations and a couple of options for the final. I'd intended using a 1.3 litre Duratech instrument case as the container, but my preferred hiding place really requires something bigger so tomorrow I'll be going out hunting for ammo cans. Once I've settled on the hiding place, I can then start putting together the two waypoint objects that will reveal the final's latitude and longitude respectively. With another period of extended wet weather forecast to move in from Thursday, I'm not sure if I'll have everything ready by then as some of the preparation will involve waiting for paint to dry, but maybe there's still a chance it could be published before the souvenir runs out at the end of the month.

You didn't say what your offer is. Your project creates a comparatively huge device. An advantage of Chirp is that it's ultra-compact and easy to hide. The idea is that cachers would never find the device itself, because a Chirp's range is pretty much the radius of a cache placement, and Geocachers are good at finding things. If people are finding it, there's no way it lasts "10 years". Assuming you've addressed the issue of making your big transmitter muggle-proof, you might as well abandon Chirp. Chirp doesn't talk to iPhone, while "Air Tags" (for example) are an exclusively iPhone thing. Many Garmin GPSrs do not support Chirp. Phone Apps allow anyone to edit or erase all of a Chirp's data. My Chirp caches routinely got “edited”, which not only prevented Garmins from accessing the Chirp, I had no control over what people posted. And it's a pain to reset and re-program the Chirp, when I had the expectation of not handling it for at least 6 months at a time. Maybe try “Tile”. Or see the "BLE" devices and beacons mentioned in this thread. Or find a super tiny generic “Bluetooth” device that allows you to customize its identification, where at least anyone with a smartphone could view some short text without pairing. Better yet, hunt around Ali Express for a micro Wifi router, maybe one with “beacon” or “kiosk” capabilities. Then you'll need to consider solar panel size and batteries. Or look at NFC tags/cards. I have a pack of cards that are programmable. They work at short range, but can be set to "Read Only" and/or password protected, need no batteries, and many current phones can read them. I have ideas for diabolical ways to hide these as cache stages.

It will be in ROW of county road with a fair amount of traffic right now due to construction. 1. My idea is to have a piece of hardware attached to a tree holding one object needed to get the cache out of its hiding place. Another object needed will be hanging in the tree in plain sight until the tree puts on more leaves. And finally, a false limb needs to be pulled off to get to the cache. It’s pretty obvious right now too. Is this too complicated for just a bison hide? The description will have clues as well as the title. Of course if most people bring a box of tools, they can bypass the two objects and go straight to the false limb if they see the cut mark. 2. Before your first hide that was more than a simple drop, did you have anyone try it out to see if it worked as planned? I don’t know any local geocachers, so would have to talk a friend into it and give them a crash course. 3. Do you put your log in a zip lock inside a bison? It’s supposed to be waterproof but I haven’t tested it. I can put in a bigger log if I leave out the ziplock. Thanks!

Geocaching Skills Competition Event
Weber_and_Sons replied to Weber_and_Sons's topic in How do I...?
I was not planning on listing these on the website I was gonna find the spots the week before then hide them and then once everyone leaves I would take the containers and probably reuse them for future geocaches. The multicache was not gonna be the focal point rather an activity during or after a bonfire or a potluck. The reason it probably seems like the focal point is cause that is the only part of the event that I needed help with (which is why that part of the event is all I talk about.) I have realized since posting this that its is flawed and needs some work. -
Disabling cache during Mega-events
Overused replied to Overused's topic in General geocaching topics
I dont think the rule work like that, its suposed to make events for finding caches, this is cache next to event not even connected to it. Not gona talk about this rule is being ignored on nearly every mega event as owners publish new caches with FTF friendly, especialy here in czech to give attenders FTFs... So then the mega is made to find caches which is against rules.. -
Downward Trend of Geocaching, and possible solutions!
cerberus1 replied to Inmountains's topic in General geocaching topics
I don't know... That 'covid' scare still has some folks worried about people, we're still seeing people with masks (that did nothing...), when some of us were playing outside with no crowds. '24 was a really crappy year for weather. and this is March where we're seeing 75-degree weather today, when it should be 50. Go figure... I talk to quite a few who got into health issues the last coupla years. So that might have a couple missing too. The hobby is 25 years older, and we aged with it. I'm gonna be cleared to play some in a couple weeks. A lot lighter now, so it'll be interesting to see how I fare. Over the years it's always been kinda up n down in interest here. From May into Summer should give you a good idea on interest. -
How about a GeoAchievement Badge for continents
niraD replied to poosu's topic in General geocaching topics
I had no idea what you were talking about until I looked at your profile. The GeoAchievement Badges on your profile were created by MyGeocachingProfile.com so you need to talk to them if you want them to add a new one. -
Session expired - Need to log in again
Sol seaker replied to Its_Dozzie's topic in Official Geocaching® apps
I came in here to talk about this, and found a thread already set to go. The funny part is as I was reading this thread I got logged out of the forums for no reason AND i'M ON MY COMPUTER. lol Anyway, I have an apple phone and I keep getting logged out of my account on the web when I switch to that. I've been running the checkers to see if I qualify for challenges. I run the checker. It says I have to authenticate, so I do, and then it puts me into the main menu on Project GC, rather than going back to the checker after I authenticate. I guess this is different from above, but similar. So then I'll go back to the cache page and try it again and once again it says to authenticate, and when I do it puts me into project GC again, but not on the challenge checker page. I keep going back and forth and after about the 5th try it finally gives me the challenge checker, but each time I have to RE-SIGN INTO MY ACCOUNT. It didn't used to do this. drives me nuts. Does this make sense? -
Oh! Don't leave! How did you get started? Did anyone walk you through it? Did you talk to any other players, or did you just come across the app and start on your own? Have you been through the HELP section of the website? Are there local EVENTS in your area where you could meet cachers and learn how to approach caches, and what to do if you don't find them?? If you break through that first one and learn how to THINK like a cacher, it can be tremendously rewarding. So, don't give up and don't go it alone! After all, you've ALREADY got a cool caching moniker! Shame to see it go to waste. Anybody else wanna jump in here?

Hello! I'm working on creating a new Category for Wind Phones. What are Wind Phones? Wind Phones are telephones set up for the public to visit and talk to relatives who have passed away as a form of grieving. The original wind phone booth was set up in Japan by Itaru Sasaki in 2010 and became a well known grieving spot after the 2011 Tsunami disaster. Since then there are over 350 wind phones have been created according to https://www.mywindphone.com/, with locations in the US, Canada, Europe, Africa, Australia and New Zealand. The movement seems to be growing in popularity with a Google News search showing a new story about them every couple weeks. Although mywindphone.com has a comprehensive list, there are other websites such as thetelephoneofthewind.com that exist. Let me know if you would like to be an officer or any other input. Category Group: https://www.Waymarking.com/groups/details.aspx?f=1&guid=8876c565-5cb5-4199-8f5d-83f7c048ed9d&gid=6 I created an uncategorized waymark based on my own Wind Phone visit here: https://www.Waymarking.com/waymarks/wm1BG0C_Riverside_Park_Wind_Phone_Detroit_MI

If you're looking for Challenge ideas there is a wealth of inspiration on the game board. https://project-gc.com/forum/list?11 is the challenge checker forum thread for completed checkers - these will be the ones that are approved within the guidelines, built, and either live or about to be published. You can also check out the Challenge talk podcast and browse the fun stuff they talk about there. They highlight a list of challenges every month toward the end of each episode. If you want to build something new and not using inspiration from existing ones, you could check out some tools from that show: "the challenge builder 200". It's a list of different things you can combine together for challenge requirements. You can get real nerdy with it and use "The gridbuster 4000" that charts out different combinations and try to link examples of ones that have already been published. The video of that podcast episode explains it a bit but the accent is hard to understand. https://www.youtube.com/live/ddQI4qJLV9U?t=1011s

I have one where I needed permission from town council and the local Rotary Club who built & maintain the nice boardwalk to GZ. It wasn't particularly difficult to get permission and also didn't take too long, but the Rotary Club asked me to come to a meeting to give an informational talk. It wasn't a condition of permission, but I felt compelled to agree.

When I first read the blog post, my initial thoughts were that this sounds redundant with souvenirs and with the summer promotions. Seemed silly to have another digital token. But after listening to Bryan on the HQ Podcast and on Challenge Talk, it's clear that Treasures have the potential to be much more. It sounds like they will mostly be permanent, not too easy, and will have more flexibility. Souvenirs have completely lost all meaning for me as they've become so common and the summer promotions don't excite me either, but I am looking forward to Treasures. Of course how much I actually care for them will come down to how much HQ develops the feature and builds on them, but I'm definitely excited for what they can be. Will they motivate me to go out and find caches more than I already am from Challenge Caches and of their intrinsic pleasure? I wouldn't expect by much, but maybe at the margins.

Not exactly a hoop, but an eager request... I once asked permission to place two EarthCaches in a state park. I was developing them with 80 Earth &Space students (high school freshmen and sophomores, mostly). The park ranger I was talking with to plan the trip asked if he could be involved. My Co-teacher and I gladly accepted his offer/request. It ended up going very well. It was a cold day. We had rented the shelter and lit fires in the fireplaces. The ranger gave a nice (short) talk about the geology of the park and then we broke up in groups to gather the information we needed. He guided the students to answers they couldn't find, explained things they didn't know, and made suggestions to improve their working ideas. We walked a couple of trails and generally had a great day. My co-teacher and I brought supplies to make Smores and hotdogs for all the kids to eat after they finished their explorations. We did publish two EarthCaches. Cache by Mrs A, Mrs V & the kids: Big Clifty & Little Clifty Falls EarthCache GCZBWG Fossils, Tunnel Falls, & Bough's Folly EarthCache GC10EBW

High Cache Finds: Are They Real?
GeoElmo6000 replied to FYR_Now's topic in General geocaching topics
Thank you, that's very kind! FYI the person who wrote that (thebruce0) is a vlogger with a channel called Cache the Line (with a much bigger following than mine), he knows who I am and we've collaborated a bit. I agree with his points about daily geocaching vlogging, it's hard to create a daily vlog and make it high quality unless that's what you're doing full time, which we aren't. I consider myself a geocaching filmmaker since my main love is creating GIFF entries, though one time I challenged myself to create two weeks of daily vlogs to learn about vlogging and I burned out after around 9 days. It's a lot of work. The people who make good geocaching vlogs have good outgoing personalities where I'm an engineer who would rather talk about geocaching analytically. Geocaching videos are a niche subject and a lot of people who participate in geocaching would rather be outside geocaching than watching geocaching videos. So for us who create geocaching content, it's really a labor of love for something we enjoy doing. -
What's the Difference Between a 4.5 and a 5 Difficulty?
thebruce0 replied to Weber_and_Sons's topic in How do I...?
Same with a lot of high Terrain rated caches... Well to be fair, there's not really a universal objective measure. One person might believe that a single fizzy is a true 5 difficulty for them, or in their region. Go there from a place plastered with all DTs and that 5.0 Fizzy challenge is clearly overrated. A newer cacher putting out a challenge cache might not consider such accomplishment as easy and 'overrate' it relative to loads of others in the local community. Ultimately the rating is up to the CO, and unless we know the CO and the region, it's hard to say whether a cache is 'objectively' (or intentionally) over or under rated... For both D and T, I think the jump from 4.5 to 5 could be either an underrating or overrating. For me, a 4.5D puzzle could be very hard, then next to it a 5.0 programming puzzle - that's a step down for difficulty for me, but for someone else without that specialty knowledge, it would be an easy 5.0+ difficulty (unless of course they just ask someone for the solution, which typically happens around here). So I think the 5.0 D or T is a rating all its own, and is hard to classify it universally in relation to the 4.5 rating, because most of the time, that 'specialty' tick (equipment or knowledge) is either going to itself be easy or hard depending on who you talk to. -
