Does anyone here keep in touch with VerySmartGirl? I heard yesterday at the MGS picnic that she moved out west. Is someone maintaining her caches?

It's my understanding she moved to Colorado years ago. She hasn't been an active cacher for years. Maybe someday she'll return to the game. Until then, I believe DeathwishDave has been keeping an eyeball out on her caches. Please set me straight if my perspective is incorrect, Dave. AIV made attempts to contact her over a year ago. With the goal of persuading her to let him adopt her caches. She never responded.

I found one of her caches vandalized and offered to help with replacing it but did not get a response. What should I do? Just go ahead and replace it or should it just be archived?

It's good policy to help maintain caches and I applaud those that help but.......

For cachers that are no longer in the game, I think it is best to let their caches be archived so someone who is willing to hide a cache and maintain it has the chance.

Of course, "special" caches may be another story. You can define what "special" means to you.

It's been a while since I remembered to browse these forums. Sorry for the two-month late delay. I do have a watch on the VSG ones in Cromwell Valley Park, at the request of the rangers there. I've replaced a couple and archived and re-done a couple as well. At this point, unless it's a great cache (Eratosthenes is one of them since it's a good puzzle), I'm going to let them go. I am challenged enough to keep my own caches in place anymore!
