  1. Please don't. Every time the cache gets opened, the silica gel is exposed to untold amounts of water vapour in the air and it quickly becomes saturated. Then it's just more garbage in the cache. Eventually these packets can tear open and the gel creates a mess in the cache. A good point, scratch the silica... thanks! +1 on those pesky packets that rot out our ammo cans. No offense, but I'd like to add candles to that list of "please don'ts", especially if scented. Bears love caches that have smells to 'em. Working for the World's most popular crayon manufacturer, you'd think crayons would be awesome. - Well, they're not, as all the melted wax carp left on the bottom of many caches attest. We did a lot of apologizing when we started (and replaced a lotta containers too). Would anybody use a chap stick that they found in a cache? Noted: we will leave the candels at home (We don't have Bears in downtown Indianapolis, but perhaps a dog would be attracted to the smell.) We will also leave the Chapstick at home. (They are brand new in a package and then individually wrapped, it's the potential for melting that won your argument.

  3. I got the idea for silica gel packs from another cache. They really absorb moisture well and are non toxic (despite what you may have heard, just don't let kids eat them). So we will be putting one or two with logs or additions we make when needed. Helps Keep logs and caches dry!
  4. I have kids that go with me, and others I know usually go with their kids. So we decided to clean out trash and advertisements Etc and replace with quality swag. None of this stuff is expensive, with almost all being $1 or less and the couple more expensive items were around $4. So we will save the expensive ones for special caches Good Lesson about giving for the kids.
