+mnapower Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 A fellow cacher and I created a hid a cache a couple of years ago. We formed a team profile to log it. I recently moved, and was wondering if there is anyway for us to have "dual ownership". Any ideas would be appreciated. Quote Link to comment
+StarBrand Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 Nope - only one account name can be listed as the offcial owner. The Team name account thing is often used. Quote Link to comment
+wimseyguy Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 Only one of you can be the official owner of the cache. But you can put anything you like (within reason) in the "hidden by" field. The other one of you can assist with the physical maintenance of the cache, and can keep it on a watchlist to get all of the logs via email. If you have moved too far to participate in maintenance, the best thing to do would be adopt it over to the other cacher via www.geocaching.com/adopt. You can be the watcher while they continue the ownership and management of the cache. Quote Link to comment

Yep, that's what I did with my Bent Tree cache, GCZ7D2 My nephew helped with the hide and named it so I included him as co hider, but only I get the notifications about it. Quote Link to comment

When sending a new cache for approval you can name several owners, nevertheless the link in that specific cache will refer to a single nickname in GC.com. Quote Link to comment
