I believe it would be very useful to be able to look at a map that displays the location of placements for an individual cache owner.  The display, apart from physical location, would also need to indicates cache type and whether found or not by enquirer.

For use where there is a particular hider (cache owner) who makes really good caches and it would be very helpful to have a spatial display of the location of those caches along with an indication as to whether it has been found by the enquirer or not, so that when a seeker (the enquirer) visits a particular area they can plan their visit to seek out those specific caches.

Thanks,

Paying members can do this with a Custom Filter on the Map Compare tool. If you are a paying member, here's how to do it:

Select "Custom filters" in the menu under your name on the right of the menu bar.

Create a custom filter for the hider you're interested in. For the "Statements" you want to set "Cache owner" on the "Basic stats" tab. Use "Add statements", "Add to filter" and "Save"

Go to "Map Compare" under the "Tools" menu. Add the filter "Custom filter" and select the one you just created. Set any other filters you want and click "Filter".
