Sorry kmhiker, I bet you didn’t know what you were getting yourself into.

I was a bit confused about Marc’s response, and reconciling this with cheeto, so here’s what I think is the short story:

1. You cannot actually log a temporary cache because the cache does not exist on gc.com. That is, it does not have a GC number.

2. The practice used to be allowed by the WGA to log multiple “attended” logs on an event (like the campout). In this way, your smilely count would go up for temporary caches you found at the event even though there was not a way to individually log these caches. HOWEVER, the WGA board decided to disallow this practice at WGA events.

3. Because one side of this issue believes in the ability to log temp caches at an event, they have found ways around the inability to log temp caches. One such way is by Uncle_Fun’s cache GC1CH0W. If you feel like it, you can use this cache to log your temp finds by multi-logging this cache.

So the short version is, you CANNOT actually log a temp cache, because they do not exist on geocaching.com. However, you CAN make your smilely count go up if you choose to.

Yes, sorry for the rant kmhiker, but gotta run nailed it on the head. Those are your options.

Give me the GC # and I’ll log them, Logging them on another cache is not logging them. There is no diffrence betwen that and my sarcasam of possibilties. What’s to prevent me from logging any cache as a find? I go and log all your puzzle cache as finds on another cache, what are you going to about it? What can you do about it? I had a multi cache that I was the FTF. I found it, missed one of the waypoints, and could not figure out how to retrive it to sign the log, the next trip I did, but was the STF.

So I could place a 80 temps on the 80 acres I live on and one Perm. I say you can log them all if you can find the GC #, How do you log? 1 or 81 or you going to log the one cache down south 81 times?

So, that what I’m going to do Marc, Place one cache on the back 40, an ammo can at that. For anyone who has tried to solve your puzzles and couldn’t or haven’t even tried, can now log it as a find. All they do is post what the GC # is for the cache and claim it for the log. This cache should be the most found in Wisconsin cache in about a week!

*Stirring the pot again* How can you log a cache if it does not have a GC.com number??? Plain and simple. So I can go to this cache and log the dozen or so caches I have not found to get my similies right? Who’s gonna know or care? I can log the temps too, although I did not attend the event but I was there in spirit. KEWL!!!! 8) 🙄 OH! And don’t forget puzzle solves!!! You can log them too! Even the ones that you didn’t solve! Man, I just might be able to beat Zuma & The Bunnies to 10,000! Thanks for the idea!!! 🙄

I have bought an I-pod that is only used for geocaching.

You’re welcome, guys. I was happy to see that at least someone DNFed that Star Wars Trivia cache that has sat for so long. Now, if we can just get Cheezehead to get over to Airport Flats….

I have been there and could find nothing, I ‘ve read reports that lots of the stages or tools are gone. Maybe I’ll make another trip up there again summer. Is it too late to log my stuff from the beginning of the month?
I think I hit 3 or 4 on the list.

I have found a few live shotgun shells. Not sure if they were left by hunters who found the caches or not.

[cheezehead]

Not everybody uses GSAK either. And All the info I need is on my Ipod using Cache Magnet, which puts into 2 lists. GC number and title.
