GC1K963 Cast Away Cache (Traditional Cache) in North Carolina, United States created by rvstauff

rvstauff: It is time to let this go.

Too much maintenance and too many problems with cachers not returning the cache to the island and not letting me know, resulting in nasty, water-logged logs. Maintenance used to be a lunch-run. Now that I am working out of my beloved Mint Hill, I can't keep an eye on this as I should.

This was a fun concept. Maybe someone else will give it a shot.

141 finds/47 favs since publish in December of 2008. A 7-year run is pretty good.

Thanks for all went after this cache. It was one of my favorites. My oldest active cache... well, not any more!
