I remember reading last September about a geocacher who found a hiker killed in a fall. He took coordinates and gave them to the local authorities and waited for them while body and hysterical friend  were nearby. This incident I beleive  had occured many months before I read about it. There was also another cacher who found a skeletal hand near one cache. I dont remember any more details other than that.

I wonder, was I the FTF or the first to say something publicly?  There was never anything about finding anything like this in the 'worst nightmare' thread in the gc.com forums until I posted my incident.  Not exactly a title I'd be proud of holding though.  :/

Subject: [Az-Geocaching] Another cacher finds body near Las Vegas

It looks like another cacher has come across a body.  Cacher "crzycrzy" found the body while searching for "The Big "J" Cache #3" (GCFAB0) near Las Vegas.  It appears that the cache has been confiscated by the LV Police Dept.
