This page provides an overview about all attribute icons used in c:geo. The attribute icons are used by a cache owner to describe the attributes of a cache and are shown on the cache details page.
You can click on the attribute section in the cache details to view a textual description instead of the icons.
Most of the icons can be negated if they are strike through like this:
(e.g. “Available 24/7” would be negated to “Not available 24/7”).
Not all attributes are available on all geocaching services.
