I think it's pretty hypocritical and stinky IF the
Ranger guy is logging that caches as a "find" and then
removing them!! (I don't know if this is the case, just
my reaction) ie: Let him enforce the law, but don't log
a find!! :-)

but if you are you probably noticed something very interesting today. I just recieved the following two log watch notifications.
#1:

What I find odd about this is that it would appear that "Ranger51" removed the cache and logged it. They then deleted the log entry and re-entered it as "Saguaro Rangers" which is the same geocaching.com account that they used for the cache out in the East unit. If you look though the logs for this cache you will see that "Ranger51" had already logged this cache as a find. Infact, "Ranger51" is a fairly active cache hunter here in Tucson.
I am not saying that there appears to be any hypocrisy but....
