Retracted cache issue

0 votes
511 views
I found a cache which was then retracted. As a result my numbers here don't match up with them on GC.com. I think it also affects my milestones after I found it.

Any way to fix it?

regarding the milestones you can modify them yourself on gc.com though.

No, there isn't. geocaching.com doesn't give any information about retracted caches via the API that we use but they still include them in your find count on the web site, so there's not much we can do.

What if I have a GPX file with the cache info?
by Corp Of Discovery (120 points)
Project-GC has no way to import a GPX file, so that doesn't help.

The only way to fix this is to ask your local reviewer or Geocaching HQ to delete the find on the retracted cache.
