<DIV><SPAN class=656233304-06072006><FONT face=Arial size=2>I went to REI this
past weekend for a problem with my GPS. As the guy was helping me, he
shared his viewpoint on geocaching. He said that he goes out on public
lands a lot and anytime he sees a cache there, he throws it away. My first
thought was shock and alarm! I went home and looked up the official rules,
and he's right. They are not supposed to be on forest service land, state
land, etc. However, somehow this message is not getting out to everyone
who places caches. I told him that it would be better if he contacted the
owner and let them know that he was removing their cache because it didn't
follow the guidelines and he blew me off and said that they know it's not
supposed to be there. Rather than have him sabbotage my GPS ;0) I just let
that go and finished the troubleshooting and left. It disturbed me that he
would do such a thing, though. I just thought I would bring it up to see
if anyone has any thoughts on what people should do if they find a cache on
public lands that shouldn't be there. Thanks!</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
