Most DNFs in a row

[+CapeDoc]

Does anyone know which cache has had/has the most DNFs in a row with the cache in situ?

 

This one has eleven, including some esteemed reviewers.

Firstly, thanks CapeDoc for keeping an eye on this one after so many DNF's.

 

Secondly, I would like suggestions, some say leave as is (although I have upped the difficulty rating to 4 stars), or should the clue be more desciptive/helpful?

 

What say you??

IMO, don't change anything - it's cool to have a difficult but easily accessible cache provided that repeated and intense searching is not causing environmental damage.

 

But slip me a clue offline so that I can find the elusive thing next time we're down there.

Greetings Andy. The next time you come down you better make time for a visit!

I will then escourt you to the cache & maybe give you a slight hint

Agree with Fish Eagle - don't change a thing, but I guess that is easy to say when you have the smiley!!

I look forward to taking another stab at that cache one day. There are some closer to me that I've failed to find despite a half dozen tries. But they say that even a blind squirrel finds some nuts.

According to my database, TF12 Boyes Falls has the most consecutive DNFs (11) for an active cache, followed by Wierda Bridge (8), Old Bridge (6) and Puddle Duck (5).

Looking at Erik's picture I think I can see the cache... But I will not give it away... LOL.

I know Wierda Bridge would have more DNF’s if some cachers are not ashamed for the dreaded DNF logs……

 

I agree also with Fish Eagle, don’t change any thing on your cache listing….maybe on my trip down in a weeks time I will add my DNF to your cache!!!!!

I cant understand that Boyes falls cache

I found it immediately when I first found it 2 years ago

Went past with a visiting cacher this sept, and we both spent ages searching, and even though I knew where it was, couldnt find it! (sorry, I see I never logged this)

Perhaps the heavy rains at the time was causing issues in searching and it was now behind the enlarged waterfall.

Weird, because when i found it, the cache in my opinion was a 1 for difficulty, and now its 4! Whats going on here

 

have a look at the comments on the cache page.

"Quick and easy find

the cache had 19 finds before a DNF, then another 14 finds, a DNF, then 11 finds, and now 11 DNFs.

are cachers getting weak nowaays (including me) or has something changed such as plants growing over the cache hiding spot? Come on tracknfind,shed some light on this for us

[+CapeDoc]

Bob, I think that this cache truly has a variable difficulty rating. Leave it at that.

[+Discombob]

perhaps the squirrels move it around for fun ?

[+the pooks]

Now I'm wondering whether I will be able to find it again! I think DB is onto something (in post #10).
