I have released 27 of my own coins (some local, some sent overseas) and 30 sent to me by cachers overseas to release here. As best I can recall, these are the losses so far - four to apparent theft (all overseas) and three to muggled caches (one overseas, two in Oz). So that's 50/57 = 88% still OK. ...

As has been stated in more than one other thread, we log a FIND, not a "signed the log book". What are the rules in Geocaching? Geocaching is a relatively new phenomenon. Therefore, the rules are very simple: 1. Take something from the cache 2. Leave something in the cache 3. Write about it in the ...
