I am writing this note because this topic popped up in my e-mail. I don't remember how to get into the AZ forums. I my experience, cache owners often go back to check on a cache and don't use the coordinates that they have posted. They go to the spot where they have hidden the cache, verify the fact that is where they left it and post a note that suggests all is well. Yep, the cache is where they left it but the coords might still be a problem. I think that a reviewer's responsiblity is to facilitate the game and that is broadly interpreted.

Thanks for pointing this out, so I can add that cache to THAT list. :-X

It did. Here in Az. GC21D5M Folks were looking for this 2 day old cache and not finding it. Now its been disabled by the reviewer because it had too many DNFs, so the owner can check on it, despite the fact that the owner checked on it twice. Is this a new trend in geocaching? All caches must be easily findable by most people?
