Nope, I don't see how to close my topic :-/

After seeing your screenshot it got me thinking that it might be the mobile version, so I switched to Full version and sure enough, there's the search bar 😀 Thank you for that! (I don't understand how to share screenshots, but I assume I will be able to figure out how to close the post ☺️)

How do I do a search for a topic to find out if my question has already been asked & answered? (Other than by scrolling, and scrolling, and scrolling...)

But keep in mind that the property managers for some parks and open spaces have created geocaching policies, and as long as your cache complies with their geocaching policy, it has permission. They actually don't want to review every single cache before it is placed. They just want you to follow the policy.

I've placed a few caches on property managed by the Massachusetts Department of Conservation and Recreation who have an open geocaching policy. In those situations it was more of a "I am" than it was a "can I?" Thank you all for your replies. I have yet to find my local parks' geocaching policies, so I suppose I'll try to call once I get my phone dried out from my last river caching adventure. *fingers crossed

There is an argument that there is "implied permission" in some public places like parks. This is called the "Frisbee Rule." In other words, safe & legal outdoor activities are generally okay, and that includes caching. As for shopping center parking lot hides, if anyone has a written permission letter from the head of the corporation 1,000 miles away, I suggest that you auction it on EBay for $1 million! Thank you for your reply! So are you saying that LPCs get published without land owner/manager permission? And what about guardrails? Are hiders actually getting permission from the DOT for these?

A lot of the time, most land managers or officials don't seem to know anything about geocaching. For a long time, Ontario Parks would only allow "virtual" caches. Cute, considering that "virtuals" had been disallowed by Groundspeak years and years earlier. So "type" of cache probably does not play into permission at all. Some good info can be found on your Reviewer's profile page: https://www.geocaching.com/profile/?guid=5790d023-6562-4d39-8ee4-4230f476ab36 Not just permission needed for a lot of places, but also permits. B. Thank you for the link to my reviewer's page. I may contact him/her if I don't get sufficient answers from you kind folks, I just don't want to bother him/her unnecessarily and get on the "Oh, brother" list right out of the gate!

Thank you. I had already read that, but after reading it again and Googling "Public vs private cemeteries" I gather that further permission (beyond what is stated in the wiki) is not required to hide in Indiana public cemeteries. Someone please correct me if I'm wrong...

Are there ANY types of hide locations that wouldn't require permission to be obtained from an owner/land manager?
