runner_one Posted February 9, 2011 Share Posted February 9, 2011 (edited) One of my favorite caches I have ever visited is TeaKettle Junction, Link , it is one of the older virtual caches located in Death Vally N.P. I have returned to the location since my initial visit and it will remain on my watch list as long as it exists. It is well known that park rangers from time to time remove old teakettles, and some people say this is necessary to preserve the cleanliness of the park, however I was disappointed to find last year that the coffee pot I had left only a year before was gone, and monitoring the posts for this cache I have come to the conclusion that the apparently the only criteria for removing items is their age, in fact when I was there last November I couldn't find a single pot over several months old. It is the stuff left behind that gives this place it's unique charm. I was wondering if anyone knows what happens to these items once they are removed? Do they end up sitting in the back of some warehouse 13 somewhere, or are they unceremoniously dumped in the garbage? It would be nice if there was a display of some of the older items found here. Has anyone else visited this spot and wondered where all the older stuff is? According to the NPS people have been hanging pots and pans here for over 100 years. Where did they all go?
