+tonibunny Posted July 1, 2007 Share Posted July 1, 2007 Hi everyone, I've found several plastic or metal pathtags / geotags that cachers have left in caches they have found. Is it OK to take these, or are they intended as a "thank you" for the cache setter? I'd love to make a collection of these - it's great fun to find tags left by fellow UK cachers who I have heard of via this forum - but wouldn't want to take them if they aren't meant to be taken. I'm also thinking of having some personal pathtags made (metal ones from pathtags.com) - does anyone in the UK collect these? I found a "Graham & Sue" pathtag in a cache near my home and really admire it. Cheers! Toni xx Quote Link to comment
+Jaz666 Posted July 1, 2007 Share Posted July 1, 2007 I've not seen any yet, but they are intended for anyone to pickup. Quote Link to comment
+scaw Posted July 1, 2007 Share Posted July 1, 2007 the pathtag you found will be one of S&G.Davison they are really neat Quote Link to comment
+tonibunny Posted July 1, 2007 Author Share Posted July 1, 2007 Oooo yours is nice Scaw! Maybe we could arrange to swap pathtags when I get mine made? Quote Link to comment
+scaw Posted July 2, 2007 Share Posted July 2, 2007 mine is a geotag geocoin and is trackable have a look at this site http://www.atwellfamily.net/geotags.htm Quote Link to comment
+SidAndBob Posted July 2, 2007 Share Posted July 2, 2007 I picked one up at an event cache recently as it said it could be tracked on the tag. I met the owner later that day, who told be his tag couldn't be tracked (though some can) and it was left as a calling card, though he didn't mind me taking it. So I guess it depends on the tag.

+The_Westies Posted July 2, 2007 Share Posted July 2, 2007 We ordered some for ourselves and Horrid Henry before Christmas when they were on special offer from www.pathtags.com. I think they have offers on the starter kits every now and again and they're really handy for leaving as swap items at caches. If you've bought some then you can trade on-line and build up a collection with other owners. We'd love to trade with anyone else around. Our tag numbers are # 5154 and 5208 (Horrid Henry's tag).

Jantaculum Posted July 3, 2007 Share Posted July 3, 2007 I used to leave geotags (from www.geotags.co.uk) but I've run out and I don't think they are available any more. It's a shame as they were relatively cheap and lovely little things. I didn't mind who picked them up, but I would be very pleased if any Jantaculum geotags had found their way into collections.
