NOTE: The Guest Book cache type was retired from OCNA in 2019, following a major website upgrade. Existing Guest Book caches were converted to the "Other" cache type. Guest Books will continue to be published on OCNA and should be submitted as "Other" cache type with details in the description to indicate that it is a guest book (we highly recommend including the words "Guest Book" in the title as well). For a full description of all current and retired cache types refer to this [https://wiki.opencaching.us/index.php/Cache_parameters#Cache_type Wiki article]
