ALs found by another cacher


Recommended Posts

I received  a message from a geocacher asking me to supply the numbers found in questions of all stages of one AL. I said he lost his paper with the answers and would like me to provide him the numbers I figured out and did find the bonus. I tried to see what ALs he has logged  as found using Project PC, he is there but blocked his data. 

 

Sounds fishy to me. If I knew he did find the stages, and depending on where he lives, I may help. Sounds like "I want a find".

That sounds fishy to me, and I am always happy to help people who get stuck on an AL question. I know how frustrating it is when you can't figure out an answer, so if someone reaches out to me I gladly help. In turn, I really appreciate when someone helps me when I get stuck and I cannot get a response from the ALO. 

But that does sound suspicious!

Yeah, this sounds a bit fishy to me as well.  "Lost his paper with the answers" - don't you enter the answers as you do the AL?  Maybe he /she wrote them down to work on the bonus later?  Did YOU write them down to be able to provide them to someone else later on?   I know I don't if I can enter answers right then and there.  If there are calculations to make I'll write them in a notebook or scrap paper, but then I rarely keep those after I've logged the bonus...  What AL are we talking about?  (Just curious)

I think was C & O Canal :Exploring Lock 44, could have been Cushwa  Basin in Williamsport , two of three in close proximity in Williamsport, Md. I cannot locate that message  now to be sure.

 

The answers I have to write done  if they are coordinates numbers, not smart enough to know how to out them into my iPhone - find the answers, write them down and then then use answers get the coordinates I usually enter them as corrected coordinates on geocaching.com
