I will approve this one. However, you have two many geocaches out there
now and they are too close together. I suggest you remove a few of them.

Brian, I agree about littering.  I picked up (removed) the Two Holes cache
today.  Two Holes was very close to other caches.  Is there away to remove
sites that one does not want archived?

I also have archived Dirty Dog, Spence Spring, 1972 Fire, B.Y.O.P. and
Lunchable Jeep.  I will remove them within the next two weeks.  "Too many
to close together...."

B.Y.O.P. is/was in a wilderness area.  I will have to pull Sycamore View
too (on the border of a wilderness).  "....too many geocaches out there...."

My 1972 Fire cache was close to Spence Spring which was close to the Gates
of Ladore that was in the area of the Dirty Dog cache.  "...too close
together."

Within the last few weeks I made two all day trips into the Palace Station
area.
When it takes an hour our so in the Jeep and walking to get from one cache to
another they do not seem close together, but on a map they look like they are
right next to each other.

Who knows maybe my Seven of Seven are to close together or I have to many
caches out there and they should go?  I sure would check on the status of
any Lincoln Cache before going looking for it.

It is all just a game....  I had the fun of putting them out and I can have
the fun of picking them up.

Funny thing is I have 9 ammo cans loaded with Geocaching Stuff, Log Books
and Pens, Pencils ready to go.  Anyone want to place a cache at the Yolo
Cabin?

Cheers, Ken
