Cache co ordinate rules

Right. I get that caches need to be so many meters away from another one. But does this include premium member caches? Because I can't see them on the map so how could I possibly know how close I am to one? Thanks

Yes, it includes the distance from PMO caches, "?" final locations, stages of multi-caches, etc., where you don't know the coordinates of other caches.

If you want to place a cache and don't know if anything is near, contact a reviewer to ask if your intended coordinates are free.

Premium Member Only caches WILL show up on a search for nearby caches. On the search results page, you can see the name of the cache, the distance from the search coordinates, and the direction of the cache. (This is one way for a basic member to find them, if they understand triangulation.)
