[Az-Geocaching] Claiming a find when you can't..

[michele hawley]

I'm suprised that somebody would log a find like that,  I thought it was bad 
enough to go check up on one of mine and find it in a totally diferent spot 
than where I put it! But, that I guess has good intentions, but, Isn't that 
just a NO, NO. It should be a dnf or they should've contacted the owner 
before taking that leap! So even though what you did might seem like a bossy 
move I think it was the smartest thing to do Mr. Shadow ;)
