+R&R Wanderers Posted October 20, 2003 Share Posted October 20, 2003 We've tried to find an 'easy' cache twice, but think it has been moved or removed. Someone suggested that it be moved because of logging in the area. How do we find out if a cache has been moved or removed? I know we're newbies at this, but we managed to find our first cache without too much trouble; it's that this one has given us problems. Any ideas? R&R Wanderers Quote Link to comment
+Renegade Knight Posted October 20, 2003 Share Posted October 20, 2003 Read the logs. See if it's been archived. Email the owener and ask. That's what I'd do in about that order. Quote Link to comment
+The TriVans Posted October 22, 2003 Share Posted October 22, 2003 What should you do after you've emailed the cache owner, but haven't received any response? This is the case for a cache I know of that hasn't been found in 3 months and has 4 consecutive "did not finds" in the log. Quote Link to comment

This is the case for a cache I know of that hasn't been found in 3 months and has 4 consecutive "did not finds" in the log. Post a "should be archived" log, or wait for someone who's definitely found the cache in the past to check up on it. If the people who haven't been finding it have more than a handful of finds apiece, I'd just suggest archival. Quote Link to comment
+Touchstone Posted October 22, 2003 Share Posted October 22, 2003 RK's advice is what I usually try after an unsuccessful attempt (I think I'm up to 22 DNF's now). On a few occassions, I've found logs where people will give alternative coordinates. Sometimes that does the trick and sometimes it doesn't. Be not afraid of greatness: some are born great, some achieve greatness, and some have greatness thrust upon them. The rest go geocaching. Quote Link to comment
