If you want to ask the Cache Owner for a hint, it helps a lot if you tell them about the efforts you already put into finding the cache.

That shows the cache owner you have already worked to find it, and informs them about how geocache seekers view their cache (which CO really want to know), and it lets the CO give a good hint because they know what you already checked.

It works really well for me!

During today’s caching adventure, we stumbled upon a cache claiming to contain a TB. I opened it to see not one but two TB’s.

I decided to grab them both and continued on.

Have since gotten home and gone to the log them and that’s where things got interesting.

TB 1: the one that was supposed to be there. It was originally a keyring with a dog tag attached. Sadly only the dog tag was there, the keyring part gone. Bit disappointing to see that someone decided to essentially break the TB and keep part for themselves.

TB 2: the mystery bug. Well, upon entering the code, I was incredibly shocked to see the last 2 logs. It was dropped into a now disabled cache, back in 2013!! Someone noted in 2016, that it was missing. But no logs since, or at least not until today!

Just wanted to share that with you all. Bit of a roller coaster of emotions: from disappointment to excitement in a matter of minutes!

I found an LPC that was strewn all over a parking lot. It's one that has supposedly been visited right before me that same day. The log was blown in the bushes, no container found, water damaged, but still usable, the "prize" stickers were sun bleached, water damaged and torn up. I dont want to step on any owners toes or boundaries so I was wondering....

... was it ok for me to put it all back together in a fresh ziplock and trinkets to trade?

I'm really new at this and dont want to step on toes or cross boundaries of cache owners. I did log it with details and let the owner know. 😬

Popped open my email this morning to see a discovery log on a TB that vanished into the mist almost 15 years ago... "*Wow*, how cool!" I thought. Read the log and it was a cacher that, if I understand their fractured English correctly, discovers TBs using numbers they've gotten from photographs or a list somewhere. "But it's OK because I only do this on long vanished bugs!"

No, it's not OK. It's annoying. Deleted the log.

After work yesterday I was in a wooded park going specifically to add a logsheet and swag to a cache that I had found empty a few days before. Before I could get there I ran into a lost russian lady who was trying to get to church. We walked that way for a half hour and then she mentions its closed and needed to get home. A few hours and over 7 miles later, I managed to get her safely home after sunset. Never did manage to get to the cache.

Have you ever found someone lost in the woods or anywhere?.. geocaching or not? This was my second time.
