Today while looking for a multi I found a cache that had not been listed yet. Does that count as a FTF? 😛
06/10/2017 at 5:57 pm #2055366Ha! I’ve had that happen a couple of times. Always makes me laugh. 🙂

06/12/2017 at 7:40 am #2055374I know a few people that that has happened to and I believe they took the FTF.
I went to the woods because I wished to live deliberately, to front only the essential facts of life, and see if I could not learn what it had to teach, and not, when I came to die, discover that I had not lived.

06/12/2017 at 4:21 pm #2055377A couple years ago, I found a couple caches that are still unpublished. The story behind that is these are two on a power trail that are in too close proximity to an older cache on the trail.
The buck stops here. . .and gets entered into Where's George.

Would these be Wayside63 and Wayside64? I recently did that section of the trail and thought those two maybe were archived. Never published seems more likely.
06/12/2017 at 9:57 pm #2055379That happened to me too, on the Fenwood to Edgar ATV Trail series. The CO tried to set up a trail with the caches 528 feet apart, but had a few that were too close, so the never got published. CO didn’t try to make adjustments, just left the gaps. I found 2 or 3 of the unpublished caches.

Note that I said “still unpublished”, the same thing as “never published”. Yes, it was those two.

Yes, I understood. What I meant was, when I was caching on that trail, I wondered why those numbers were skipped, and I thought at that time they had been archived. Honestly, the way some power trails are maintained, I am surprised more are not archived.

We could keep going on the “never published” thing, and there was no need to rephrase what I said to begin with. Honestly, I really wish we could log those two since we actually found them.
I had met the CO of this PT once and he seemed to be adamant about signing logs in order to claim a find on a cache, but the fact that he doesn’t respond to NM’s of wet logs and accusations of armchair logging tells a different story.
