jsweeney1 Posted October 21, 2012 Share Posted October 21, 2012 Hi Everyone, If anyone wants a travel Bug or Geocoin to visit Antarctica please PM me in the next week. Specifically it is McMurdo Station. I will give you my address and then I will forward them to Antarctica for you. Thanks! Quote Link to comment
+TeamEccs21 Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 I'm assuming that there is a cache there the coins will be dipped into...then what happens? Quote Link to comment

jsweeney1 Posted October 22, 2012 Author Share Posted October 22, 2012 Unless you request otherwise, the TB will be placed in New Zealand. Your TB will be dipped in a cache in Antarctica. Quote Link to comment
CW88 Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 I'd be interested. Just sent a message Quote Link to comment
+pingos Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 I'm interested to. I will send you a message Quote Link to comment
GregsonVaux Posted October 23, 2012 Share Posted October 23, 2012 Is it possible to have it left in Antarctica? I have sent out a large number of coins with missions to Antarctica, but none have made it yet. I would like to have the coin dropped in the cache and left for people to discover. Like all coins that I send out, I have wishes for it, but I understand that once it leaves my hands, it finds its own fortune. Quote Link to comment
+thesmurfinator Posted October 23, 2012 Share Posted October 23, 2012 Am I the only one who is nervous about this?? The OP has only discovered one cache and yet everyone seems fine with sending coins to them..... Am I missing something here?? sorry if this seems overly paranoid but I have had trackables go missing, both mine and those that I have moved on, and I am very wary of where I leave them because I count myself responsible until they have been moved on by someone else.... I did send a message to the OP asking why they only had only found one cache along with some other questions. The other questions were answered but no answer to the lack of cache finds... Sorry, a great idea in principle but I think I'll be passing on this.... Quote Link to comment
jsweeney1 Posted October 23, 2012 Author Share Posted October 23, 2012 Sorry I didn't answer your question. I really I haven't gotten time to Geocache this year. I am pretty new to Geocaching so I will hope you will understand. I can provide you with a link to the trackable of mine that is down in Antarctica right now if you would like. Quote Link to comment
+thesmurfinator Posted October 24, 2012 Share Posted October 24, 2012 Like I said, it is a risk I am not willing to take, sorry. You may be completely genuine and I am sure that I will be kicking myself when the others send you trackables and they get logged in Antarctica, but I would not be willing to send any sort of valuables to someone I didn't know unless they were of good standing in the community. If you had 200 posts on here, or had logged a couple of hundred caches then I would not have so much of an issue. It has been known for people to join geocaching just to find trackables then go out and harvest them, it doesn't happen a lot, but it DOES happen. I just like to play it safe.....
