Hi caught@work,

Re: TP5274, and TP5273
Can you please check the above. Newcomer namely usaeagle has made a mistake creating 2 TPs at the same location (error coorinds). This person does not know how to fix it. I note that this person is not a geocacher except using TPs to be set up in this GCA.

Cheers
Varuna

http://geocaching.com.au/cache/TP5273 has been archived.

From the look of http://geocaching.com.au/cache/TP5274 there is no TrigPoint there. It's on a 100m contour line with a higher point not that far away, so I'm suspicious that this even exists.

I've shot them an email asking if there is a TP there or whether this should be a virtual cache.

It's supposed to be a virtual so I'll fix it up for them.

Kind of related, not worth starting a new thread for....
Just noticed the SA State Survey Marks Locationless cache
http://geocaching.com.au/cache/ga1595 has a Traditional Icon displayed for it.
Lists it as a Loc on the page but search and page has the Trad icon.
