There's a local named Nomad who delights in seemingly useful hints, true in fact but misleading. His puzzles are a hair-pulling delight. No, really.

Those would make me go "hmmm" rather than "huh", I think.... :-D What irks me is when someone puts in a hint that says "no hint at this time" or "you won't need one". :-P

I like the ones that say, "Look under the third tree at the northwest corner of the parking lot." When I started geocaching I figured it'd be challenging to use a compass rather than a GPS. Now I don't even use the compass.

I almost never look at the clues for that exact reason... found that in most cases they are easy enough to find without. Can't remember any in particular, but I have run into some really stupid clues. Cheers' Jamaican Steve

what are the useless hints you've come across? "it's not where you think" "near a tree" "look harder"
