The best way to handle a “full logbook” would be to first include that information in your “found it” log. The owner would then have a chance to go out and replace the logbook.

Ok, just making sure I didn’t need to make a separate ‘needs maintenance’ log.

In the case of this cache, I will probably have a chance this Sunday to go out and put in a new log book.

Thanks for the heads up.

Glad to know. Thanks.

Sounds like you did the right thing. You could have also made a “Needs Maintenance” log in addition to logging it as a find, which would be a stronger alert to the owner that they need to check on their cache. But I’m sure Brian will get this one fixed up ASAP. 🙂

That’s the part I wasn’t sure of… If the putting it in the Found log was okay, or if ‘Needs Maintenance’ was necessary.

Some people carry a “geocache first aid kit” with them so they can make repairs to caches they find that are in need of it. You may want to carry a couple notebooks, ziploc bags, pens/pencils (especially pencils in the winter), paper towels for drying a cache, the handyman’s secret weapon (duct tape)… and maybe even spare containers like a 35mm film canister and small tupperware containers.

I just picked up 3 notebooks for $1 from the Dollar Tree just in case this happens again. I do have extra ziplocs and cut-down pencils in my gear as well.
