To claim the second cache, shouldn't it be "logged" in? Or is there a relaxation because of what happened? :D

It would appear that either all the TB's were moved or they they were logged into the wrong cache.

Little bit of work for the administrators.[:D]

A recent cache event in Toowoomba had 40 members attend and over the weekend there was about 1000 finds. There was a problem with one of the caches, the number of people finding the cache attracted the interests of muggles and cache container was ransacked. :( So if the cache is in sensitive locatio...

Did you save file as a KMZ or KML file. The default in Google Earth is KMZ, so you may need to select KML. :D

Not quite what you are looking for but I think it's a handy utility if you are in mobile phone range. (with a data plan) free.3dtracking.net I have a "Where's Damo?" icon on my NCS's (non-caching spouse) laptop so if I am running the app on my mobile it will bring up a google map showing my locatio...

I did the 3/3 cacher, and having only been caching for about 9 months it did give me a good appreciation of the differences between the various D and T ratings. Before I started I think I had 13 D/T combinations, and now I have 27. It probalby took me out of my comfort zone as well, otherwise I woul...

The list of unusual things that have appeared is getting longer. They must be having a rethink on their quality control. Hitting the deer was inevitable considering the miles they would have done, but leaving it there.... House on fire (Eagle Point Dr, Sherwood, Pulaski, Arkansas 72120) http://bigpi...

The hard bit is when people arrive, getting them organised, giving out info etc. The more you can give out before hand, especially maps of the site will help alot (so people will know ehre to go). When I have been to large conferences they also have a daily newsletter which keeps everyone up to date...

When Camps4 come out, I got Camps 3 for $20. They still have the updates though I do know they are stopping them at the end of the month. Wonder how much I can get Camps 4 for soon. Though I find them useful, I can't justify the $55. If you are touring the country, yeah sure you will get value for i...
