When should one log a trackable? My personal view is generally when you pick it up in one cache and drop it off in another. Occasionally, I have logged them as visiting a cache when it is relevant to its mission. For instance, I had a TB with a mission to visit bridges, so I logged it as visiting a cache on a bridge – I could not drop it off there as it was a nano.

I’ve noticed recently that some cachers are logging trackables as taken to a cache every time they visit one. For instance, every cache in a series, although they may be only few hundred metres apart. One TB which has passed through one of our caches was logged as taken to 44 caches in August before being dropped off.

To my mind this creates a “can’t see the wood for the trees” scenario, with a very long list of visited caches, but difficult to see where it’s actually been left. Also it clogs up the map.

What do others think?
