+crzycrzy Posted January 16, 2004 Share Posted January 16, 2004 Have you ever stumbled onto a cache site and found something you didn't want to ? Don't get too graphic on me, but tell me your horror stories... Just recently, I found someone's porno cache just prior to finding the geo-cache I was chasing. Hmmm... what a nice opportunity for a CITO ! Link to comment
+JMBella Posted January 16, 2004 Share Posted January 16, 2004 (edited) Found one a few weeks ago, (No Bricks) where there were some freaky stuff going on. There were alter type things around, candles and Christmas decorations. Weird stuff. We did take the time to add a few crosses made out of sticks though. Thought that was a nice touch.

+JMBella Posted January 16, 2004 Share Posted January 16, 2004 Just recently, I found someone's porno cache just prior to finding the geo-cache I was chasing. I found a stash like that while I was hiding one of my caches. Now here's a dilemma for ya. As I'm walking around the site I keep picking up loose pages from a really nasty magazine. As I'm walking back to my car I realize there's no garbage can in the park. Now I don't want to bring this filth into my car for fear I'll forget to through it out and someone will see it in there. Maybe even my wife! What would you have done? Link to comment
+Kfam Posted January 16, 2004 Share Posted January 16, 2004 This stop on the SNOlympia Cache Machine was a pretty freaky site. Elephant's Graveyard Link to comment

+Bloencustoms Posted January 16, 2004 Share Posted January 16, 2004 Worst thing I ever encountered was a used, well... you know. Pretty gross, one of the people I was caching with noticed it hanging in a shrub I had just pushed aside to retrieve the cache. Yuk. Link to comment
+crzycrzy Posted January 16, 2004 Author Share Posted January 16, 2004 I suppose you will run into those sooner or later, as long as it's not being used when you find it I suppose it's at least bearable. Link to comment

+Bloencustoms Posted January 16, 2004 Share Posted January 16, 2004 Ok, my last OT post in this thread. I am presently copying my entire CD library (small though it is) to my hard drive, because they are getting scratched up real bad in my car. I had been listening to Type-O while driving to a cache (true, and slightly on topic) and thought that with all "smurfy" avatars out there, I'd try something different. I noticed the album cover while saving the files, and the rest is very recent history. Sorry to hear your disk got ruined. Link to comment
+pnew Posted January 16, 2004 Share Posted January 16, 2004 worst thing for me had to have been the porn magazine stack next to the underwear hanging in the tree... Lordy there must have been something going on... I just can't quite put my finger on what it was. Strip poker maybe? Link to comment

+Imajika Posted January 16, 2004 Share Posted January 16, 2004 (edited) No it was strip poker. The losers lost their clothes. The winner got the porn prize but I forgot to take it with me. Oh no, I said too much...never mind. Edited January 16, 2004 by Imajika Link to comment

+fizzymagic Posted January 16, 2004 Share Posted January 16, 2004 Nobody here has even come close to JimSwim, who discovered a dead body. Seriously. Here is the log. Link to comment
+yumitori Posted January 16, 2004 Share Posted January 16, 2004 Not 'freaky' per se, but we trashed out some porn that was left at the parking area for a cache we attempted once (it proved to be a poorly planned hide; it was apparently removed by the group managing the area before anyone ever found it). Problem was, there was no trash can available so I tossed it under the seat of the vehicle, which happened to be my mother-in-law's. Yep, I forgot to remove it, and she found it after we returned the truck. Fortunately, she has a sense of humor... Link to comment
+briansnat Posted January 16, 2004 Share Posted January 16, 2004 A lot of finders encountered freaky stuff at this cache, including one person who was being shot at. I had no problem during my visit, but judging from the logs, I was one of the rare, lucky ones. Link to comment
+nittany dave Posted January 16, 2004 Share Posted January 16, 2004 At This cache I reached into the ground cover for what I thought was the cache container and came out with...well let's just say adult toy. Read the logs from April 15 - May 4 2003 for the whole story. Link to comment
+BusBoy Posted January 16, 2004 Share Posted January 16, 2004 I was searching for a cache with canbill and as we were walking along, he casually said "I smell dead things". I happened to look down and (being raised in the city, far from anything but the occasional dead pigeon), I jumped about five feet in the air (and may or may not have screeched/squealed, I don't believe it) as I avoided stepping all over what appeared to be a dead fox.

+Doc-Dean Posted January 16, 2004 Share Posted January 16, 2004 (edited) ANTS!!! Alot of them (lost count after 10,000), and they were not happy that I was disturbing their new home (the cache). And they had no problem with making it perfectly clear to me, who was in charge of the cache... But I had a can of RAID in the truck and I showed them! This is geocaching we are talking about and I was going to get my find!!! Now I am know as Doc-Dean - healer of people, slayer of ants! Edited January 16, 2004 by Doc-Dean Link to comment
+Sparrowhawk Posted January 16, 2004 Share Posted January 16, 2004 (edited) Kfam, I could not see that pic very well, so I fixed the brightness and contrast in Photoshop. NOW I can see it! The new version of Photoshop can make stuff like this georgous pretty quickly. If you want the corrected pic, let me know. Edited January 16, 2004 by Sparrowhawk Link to comment
+cachew nut Posted January 16, 2004 Share Posted January 16, 2004 Well some of you may remember one of my old freaky finds where I found this old smallish prison in Detroit and was overwhelmed by the smell of rotting flesh. I had UMC check it out for me, but the clever fiends had since converted the prison to a boat house. I did a pretty good job of scaring the crap out of myself on this one. You can read the old thread here. Link to comment
+Tprints Posted January 16, 2004 Share Posted January 16, 2004 I didn't find this one but a friend of mine did. Actually he didn't find it but did find a blair witch type area near the cache coords. Just think how spooky it'd be to run into this stuff while night caching! Serenity Cache Link to comment
+joefrog Posted January 16, 2004 Share Posted January 16, 2004 I'll have to pull the pic from the home computer, but while exploring a historic area north of Birmingham, AL I found a dead Santa sprawled on the ground near a gift shop... made for a creepy picture! It was a manequin with a Santa suit on... just laying there like he'd been mugged! Link to comment
+beckerbuns Posted January 16, 2004 Share Posted January 16, 2004 DNF and find on this cache. Dead animals abound. And I'm not the only one who has seen them! Lots of garbage too. Yuck. Not a nice place for a cache. Link to comment
+bitbrain Posted January 16, 2004 Share Posted January 16, 2004 I found the mostly rotted remains of a large dog wrapped in plastic near Manic's CD Cache across the park from the Memphis Metal Museum. Nearly lost my breakfast on that one. Link to comment
+The Cheeseheads Posted January 16, 2004 Share Posted January 16, 2004 At the first cache I ever found, another cacher who was there at the same time found a gun. It looked like it had been abandoned there for quite some time. He turned it into the police, but I never heard if anything came of it. Link to comment
+carleenp Posted January 19, 2004 Share Posted January 19, 2004 When I went caching today, I couldn't find the cache but I did find the "dead thing." According to an earlier log it is probably a dog. Link to comment
