New to geocaching need advice.

I found a cach right near my house, like 20m away. So cool because it was practicaly my first cach found. But when I found it someone had taken it out and left it in the road. Part had been damaged by cars and people walking. I found the 3 bits,  outer casing, inner 35mill film tub and a pencil. I put it where the clue sugessts and it's shape suggests. But it could do with some TLC. Is it ok to repair some one elses cach. It just needs a plastic back to keep the log dry and bit of bluetack to stop keep the outter casing toggether. 5mins work at most.

It's OK to replace a logbook, by instance, but major maintenance should only be done upon owners approval... or by him, of course.

I suggest that you log a Needs Maintenance, so the owner can act accordingly.

I'll do that then. Thanks for the help.

Looks like this CO doesn't have a very good record of cache maintenance.

If the coordinates to your cache are wrong, change them as soon as possible.

If it is someone else's cache, tell them about it.
