      We placed a cache, and after I had deleted our GPS info, the coordinates were posted wrong for the W coord ( i used the same as another cache in the area.

      Here is a log that I received today from Bull Falls GC1X0MP by Geocacher Red Granite

          now that’s an accomplishment!
          I found one once with just one set of coords but it certainly wasn’t over a mile away.

          Reward? a bonus smiley?

            We find caches with wrong coordinates all the time. Usually they’re placed with an iPhone. 😈

                All’s fair when you’ve been there! 🙄 But over a mile away, that is indeed persistance! I saw labrat score an FTF with me at several hundred feet away from ground zero, but that was due to mother nature or aliens and not the i-phone that day. 😉

                    Red Granite did receive a reward, a bonus hint on a cache we have that is quite challenging. Usually hints are not given out on that one, but it was a reward for saving me a 140 mile round trip for my mistake
