+Turtlefly459 0 Posted October 27, 2016 Hello We are traveling to 2 different cities with travel bugs to drop off for our troop to hopefully watch travel. How can we find travel bug hotels in various cities to drop our trackables in? I know we can leave in any cache, but I thought they might have a higher likelihood of traveling from a hotel. Thank you for any advice, we are still learning Quote Share this post Link to post

Thank you for any advice, we are still learning No such animal. "TB Hotel" is a label applied by a cache owner in the cache's title or descriptive text. There's no checkbox or attribute. Usually it's labeled a "Hotel" because it's a large cache and can hold more stuff, but there's nothing that officially sets a "Hotel" cache apart from one that isn't so-described. So, if you want to find one, search for caches with "Hotel" in the title or description. There are tools to make that easier; I'm sure someone else will chime in about Project-GC and other stuff, of which I'm not a user and know nothing. Quote Share this post Link to post
+NanCycle 514 Posted October 27, 2016 If you choose a "hotel" be sure you read the cache page and don't use one that has a lot of trackables in it already or has language that restricts the number of trackables that a person should take. Quote Share this post Link to post
+lee737 445 Posted October 27, 2016 Easier to just search for regular/large sized caches, in that list should be all the 'Hotels' anyway. A 'Hotel' near here had 90 trackables go missing one time..... Quote Share this post Link to post

Thank you for any advice, we are still learning Other than what a CO decides to call his cache, searching for "regular" might help. We notice those away from cities (with a little higher D/T rating) as a bit safer for trackables. YMMV... Quote Share this post Link to post
