We just had an interesting experience, here’s my log on GC556QM.

After finding the new cache nearby we decided we needed to find just one more before heading home. We had practically walked past it on our way over, should have grabbed it then but you know how it goes when there’s a FTF to be found! My son didn’t really care too much about the cache because there’s a rotting deer carcass nearby, boys find this to be much more interesting for sure! My daughter and I found the cache and signed the log while he pestered us to go over and smell how gross it was. I didn’t realize it until a little later but my other son was finding what I’m guessing was drugs in a nearby tree, although he didn’t tell me about it until later. I love that my teenage son was more thrilled about the railway ties that he found than with the drugs, which he left in place. Had I known about them I probably would have picked it up and brought them to the cops, but he didn’t tell me until we were leaving and couldn’t remember which tree they were in. Good times! 😉 Thanks for placing this one, we had a good time.

This actually wasn’t my first time finding drugs in the woods while geocaching.  I’ve run into pot plants probably half a dozen times over the years and one other time we found a little bag of drugs under a fake leaf.  At a different cache yesterday we found an old mattress, which my son was joking about because he has been asking for a new one and here was one for us in the woods!  We find sunglasses and pens/pencils near caches all the time.  Once we found a discarded bike on the side of a trail.  We went back a few days later and could tell that weeds had been growing in it for a long time so we took it home.  I’m sure there’s more, can’t think of it now.
