The "BUG" Stops Here Travel Bug Hotel Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

freedancer: It is with great sadness that I announce the archive of this cache. Even with the security measures that we took to protect this cache, someone was still able to compromise and remove the property inside. We checked this today and even the log book was gone and the lock broken off.

It sickens me to think that someone can be so mean and spiteful as to take what does not belong to them. It ruined this spot and this game for all of us. Whoever you are, what you did is wrong. It is against the law and if I ever find you, I will see to it that you are prosecuted for theft. You have no right to keep the travel bugs and coins that you have taken.

To the geocachers who placed their bugs here, I am deeply sorry for your loss. Those of you who may have taken a bug from here and either forgot to log it out or log it in someplace else, please do so if you can. Otherwise, the bugs that are listed on this cache have been stolen and I will be marking them all missing.

I am sorry that Billings Montana has turned out to be a place that you cannot trust to protect your items anymore. With much sadness, Freedancer

Geocache Description:

This is a regular cache, located with permission, on the grounds of the Billings MT Chamber of Commerce. It is easily accessable from the I-94, 27th street exit. We wish to express our warmest thanks to John, who has graciously allowed us to place this cache. Be sure to visit the Chamber of Commerce if you are there during business hours.


WE HAVE PLACED A NEW LOCK ON THIS CACHE. THE NEW COMBINATION FOLLOWS As of 16 August 2009:

R-02 L-24 R 34

PLEASE...REMEMBER TO RELOCK CACHE SECURELY!

This cache is a medium-small ammo can. It is "NOT" located "ON" or "NEAR" the sculpture. Please, "DO NOT" search in that area. Inside this cache we have placed a FTF prize, trade items, some maps of Billings and a "partial listing" of some of the local area caches. Please be sure to log out the travel bug you take on the Internet site so the cache won't list bugs that aren't there. We hope you enjoy this cache and "Happy Hunting For All!" If you have questions or concerns about this cache, please contact Freedancer or Arliecon.

PLEASE NOTE: It appears that this cache has been compromised even with the safety measures that we have taken. There is nothing else we can do short of taking it down and archiving it. If you put trackables in this cache, please be warned that you are doing this of your own free will. We will no longer take responsibility for trackables coming up missing.

IF YOU TAKE A TRACKABLE PLEASE LOG IT OUT!
