Q: What's the point in a proximity limit for caches, why can't they be close together?

 

A: Well, the answer is that it's downright confusing. If the nearby geocache was any closer to this one, then I doubt I'd have known which was which if it wasn't for Double-D's helpful labelling. Luckily the coordinates were accurate too, and the GPS-gods in the sky beamed down to pinpoint the location of both boxes accurately. If they'd have been out, then all hell may have broken loose as the parameters for each cache's location would have been too great; they may have overlapped, even. Anyway, I got there in the end with these two being so close together, but my luck was not to last - here I had a Fine Pair of smilies, but I was to have an Odd Couple at the next 'double-tupperware' location slightly further north - one find on the geocache, one DNF on the opencache. If they're too close it skews your search area. I hope that answers your question. ;)

 

Many thanks for keeping this going Dave
