Re: GeoCaching

Which I fully understand, but I must say I believe that the response is misguided.

Although I've tried to explain otherwise, everyone here seems to believe that Geocachers are seeking to destroy monuments, or to aesthetically intrude upon the countryside. That is most definately not the case - in fact, it is quite the opposite. Most Geocachers actually tidy up any litter they come across while on a hunt.

However, in response, I've had threats of violence (albeit half jokingly - "Chopped up Geocacher", anyone? - nevertheless, it does worry me that someone here might fly off the handle at a family of cachers), and people seem to be jumping to all of the wrong conclusions.

I understand you are a friendly bunch... and I can understand the response (to a degree) but the profanity and threats are not a nice welcome!
