Don’t be embarrassed, you are learning. I’m glad you found my blog and were able to take something from it that will help you enjoy caching more.

Well I am a little embarrassed, my wife and I are newbies, caching for only 5 weeks. I do appreciate many of the caches we find, I am guilty of not letting the owners know that appreciation. That will change. Thank you for the enlightenment.

teamvoyagr, thanks for this post. I am a new geocacher and agree that some education on etiquette would be helpful. I’m guilty of writing only “TFTC” in logs because I didn’t know any better until now. In my defense, I use a phone to log while I am out (otherwise I will be less likely to log it at all later) and so far I have been looking for mostly easy caches in my urban neighbourhood, plus it’s hard to get excited about yet another skirt-lifting exercise. It’s my choice what kinds of caches I go for, so as I gain confidence and go after more challenging caches, I will put more effort into giving caches the log entries they deserve.

I like Munzee for the reason that you have to be present to capture it. It logs it onto the database once you have captured it, and then your score goes up accordingly. Correct me if I am wrong, but when geocaching you could say that you “captured” it without actually being there. I don’t like that aspect. Also There is multiple variations to the game such as virtual Munzees where you don’t have to have anything placed at all. You just have to be within 300 feet of where the location was set. A good example of when this is used, is if people wanted to place a munzee on the lake. They obviously couldn’t float a QR code for very long so a Virtual Munzee is a more sustainable choice. I know it is not the trick of finding the virtual, the cool thing is when you set it you can see who has been to your spots.
