Re: Logless cache idea

I think one of the most enjoyable aspects of an Ecocache, is witnessing its gradual return to nature. As an Ecocache owner, I would love to see gallery photos or read about the condition of the container as it evolves and erodes over time.

Re: Codeword Required??

GA14079 is a Geocacher Geocache. . This type of cache requires a codeword. It would have been set by the CO when creating the cache. They can always edit the cache and see what was set.

Re: unsubscribe

Hi, Head to https://geocaching.com.au/my/settings/ and change the Email Updates setting to 'No Updates Email'. That should do the trick. If you have any caches on your watchlist you may get an email when they receive logs, but you can remove them here: https://geocaching.com.au/my/hotlist/watchlist ...

Re: Earth Science Cache

I think using a text answer rather than multiple choice is good in theory, but as you say the Q&A cant be subjective and spelling may be a problem.
