nano already exists. its called unknown.

Yup. If it's an urban cache, I just assume it's a nano from the start. If it happens to be a larger container, I will find it that much faster. not always. I dnf'd a LARGE once.

neat thing about those is you can keep tossing em high til the magnet sticks

Yup. Unfortunately, most folks who utilize crappy containers fail to find " the right spot". Maybe Groundspeak could put together a tutorial explaining proper spot finding? A potential preview: Film can = in a camera bag, in your closet. Hide a key = under your front porch. (with a key in it, not paper) Altoids tin = in your top, left dresser drawer, or vehicle glove box. Medicine bottle = in your medicine cabinet. Gladware = in your kitchen cabinet or fridge. Ammo can = out in the woods. Bison design tubes (the real ones) = out in the woods. Lock & Locks (the real ones) = out in the woods. Performs = out in the woods. Wow...............so if we don't have any woods nearby, we can't hide caches? Now that's "crappy"! Sure you can. i'm sure you got a walmart, target, autozone, circleK, 7-11 parking lot in your area. mc donalds, BKs, KFCs all have bushes you could toss a film cannister behind

cottage cheese and yogurt are terrible choices.

ignore the platinum haters. they're just jealous they can't qualify for platinum membership!

I know of a cache like that. I was third to find and the camera had already walked.

ignore the muggles. you're more likely to compromise the cache by slinking and ducking around that just getting it.

Ahhhh ebay. where you can buy a $4.99 home depot sprinkler head for $19.99+ship because they call it a "cool geocache idea"

Cool but it'd probably walk within the first few finds.

Left #1 and #2, took nothing because it was all wet. TFTC

tried that a few different places. lasted maybe a month.

neither. the fact you can't have new virts anymore is why.

swag that makes me mad: dollar store soap bubbles.

I'm pretty sure i read even if you got permission, burying is a no no. only acceptable is on land YOU OWN.

I agree. I don't want to see caches placed for the sake of placing a cache. Many of the oldest caches around here are also the best ones around. I'd hate to see an old ammo box placed near a scenic waterfall replaced with a hide a key in the guardrail 500 feet away. "I placed a cache here because this parking lot had none"

Sounds like a maint nightmare unless you could find a tree in the forest with an electrical plug in

My preference: neither. google earth is pretty good if you don't hit where two images stitch together. taking coords with a phone: DON'T DO IT!

Reviewers will generally only let you hold the spot a few weeks[not the better part of a year]

Yes, each stage of an existing multi will block you from placing your cache within 528 feet of that stage. If there are 4 stages, you have to avoid all 4, not just the final. If the park is that big and has a very small number of caches though, there is probably plenty of space, you just have to explore a bit more and find a good spot On a side note, why the trouble with the multi? If you find it, you'll know where all the stages are and will have an easier time avoiding them with your placement. only stages that will block are ones with a physical container

make sure its got the high accuracy chip

DON'T DO IT! I can't count how many flooded areas i've seen by people breaking heads and not putting them back thinking it was the cache. destroyed property gives caching a black eye.

a big version of the bio container. after about 10 finds the lids break off and shortly thereafter go missing. a fuji film cannister is better than those.

Tell that to the person that put it up in the tree. easy when ya attach a wire hook and heave it into the tree from the ground
