Re: Geocache on my property. Now what?

Thanks Keith. It would also be fun with that blue dye that banks use on robbers. :lol:

Re: Geocache on my property. Now what?

I'm still wondering when someone is going to tell me this is a bad idea, and why....... :mrgreen:

you might be able to search for the exact one. or you can contact the admin there. they are only allowed to place them on private property w/ the permission of the land owner. you could tell them to remove it from their site since you didn't give your permission.
Geochached for a few years. I knew of one person in the San Antonio area that often put them on private property, even with posted no trespassing signs, without permission. In one cache posting she even gave directions on how to avoid no trespassing signs so you could claim you didn't see them. I called her on it, stating what the penalty could be if caught and her response was "don't get caught".

Now she wasn't the norm but the attitude wasn't unusual. Bad apples in every group.
I'd be willing to bet she was a progressive/liberal.
That kind of lack of respect demands a stronger response........like no trespassing signs warning that you enter at your own risk and accept all liabilities if you do, and then tripwires and pepper spray, or something equally diabolical. :evil2:

Re: Geocache on my property. Now what?

I've been a geocacher since about the year 2000, and have had one of my "travel bugs" that I put into play in Pasadena CA travel all over the U.S. and Puerto Rico. The owners of the geocaching.com website are pretty responsive to the membership. You can join the site for free. Paid membership, which I have had for years, gets you more perks, but the basic service which is free is good enough for the casual user. There is a mobil app that will help you find geocache locations on your cellphone: https://www.geocaching.com/mobile/
