Mike, while the cache guidelines indicate you are supposed to delete bogus
logs, according to multiple posts on the forums the cache owner encouraged and
approved the swapping. I wish this would have been the reason why they shut
down the cache. But when you see how hard it is to get a cache shut down on
posted no trespassing land, I have little hope for Groundspeak cracking down on
widespread cheating by numbers hounds.

I am still trying to figure out how the cache owner was responsible for the
cache swapping that took place??? Why penalize the caches when someone cheats?
I don't follow Jim's logic. That's like saying I'm glad that cache got archived
because so and so really didn't sign the log but logged it on GC.com. Please
explain.

GOOD RIDIANCE!!!!
The so called “cachers” could not be bothered with even placing a sticker on
the cache and putting it back where they found it. The teams would
start by replacing the first cache with a new film canister with a stickered
log. Then when they drive to the next cache someone would place a sticker on
the cache they had just stole and replace the next one with it. Sorry but that
is not caching, it is shuffling film canisters. Its cheating to act like you
are a great cacher.

That area really needed that to draw people out there to cache. Just look at
GCF9 if you don't think so. It was place back in 2000 and has been found 107
times to date. If you look at when it was found you will find that in the
first 9 1/2 years it was found 49 times. In the 9 months that ET Highway was
active it was found another 58 times. I wonder how many times it will be
visited in the next year or two?

This cache is being archived after a request from The Nevada Department of
Transportation. The Cache Owner, Clay4&whtwolfden, has received additional
information and is responsible for physically removing the container from the
location. The same applies for all other caches in this series. Drive safely.
Several Reviewers and Lackeys have teamed up to take all the necessary steps to
archive the series and so you will see different usernames taking action on
this series of many caches.
Groundspeak thanks everyone for their cooperation.
FYI
OKRA.
