My humble apologies if this quesion has been asked before:

Someone has a disabled cache in close facinity of where I live.

This place is one of my favourite places. The owner I see now

operates (lives) about 1000km away.

 

Is it possible that if I replace the cache- that I can adobt his?

Thus showing up as my cache in future? with finds coming to my e-mail?

Obviously all with his agreement...

 

How is this done?

The easiest way is to start a new cache at the location.

 

If, for sentimental reasons, you want to actually adopt the listing, the owner needs to unarchive the cache before it can be adopted.

 

Check with your local reviewer & let them know what you want to do, the cache may be placed in a location that wouldn't be approved now, a good piece of info to have before you proceed too far.

If it's disabled he can't. It still counts when determining the .1 mile rule.

 

If it's archived I agree that starting his own cache is the best way to go.
