The closest thing I have to a puzzle cache is Urban Bingo.
Just make sure you don't hide the final cache under a bench next to a Federal building

Anyone ever cached at the ports of call of an Alaskan cruise? I'm doing a seven-day cruise next week and plan to checkout Juneau, Skagway, and Ketchikan. Anyone done this before?
Hmmm ... cruise ... floating caches ...

Why? Because I have arachnophobia and the area is INFESTED with spiders. OK - they're small, they're orange, they (probably) don't bite .... but there's thousands of them all over the trail and surrounding vegetation.

The biggest impact I have seen Geocaching have on the landscape is pulling McCrap toys out of public landfill and reboxing in nice, camouflaged Tupperware containers.

Any reason why you can't use a Benchmark rod container like this:
to hide a cache? I realize these hatches get popped from time to time by survey crews, but some are really out of the way and have not been visited for decades.

I created a cache (Kooky Komber Kash Stash) near my house at the end of a hiking trail, just where it opened up into a large, grassy clearing. It wasn't until I noticed people walking across the grass in the distance carrying flowers that I realized it was in fact at the edge of a memorial park.

I've been buying lots of cool geocache stuff recently from American Science & Surplus and came across these cool little plastic vials ... they are ~ 2 inches long by 0.25 inches in diameter, with a firmly seated, waterproof cap.
They are cheap ... 25 for $2 ... and make great multi-cache containers. Check out some of the other stuff there ... they also have aluminum watertight "pill bottles".
On edit: Link to catalog pages for containers

After painstaking hours of building a 36 square-block mystery cache laid out like a giant bingo card ... I looked for the perfect place to hide the cache and unfortunately, chose a bench outside a Federal building. All was going smoothly until the third find, when GlenMart was detained by a Federal security guard and grilled over what he was doing.
He was detained for 30 minutes, had to show ID, and the cache was confiscated.
I guess this is a lesson to us all - be careful where you stash the cache!

Now *that* was simple ... like I said ... a newbie question. Thanks!

So here I am in Vegas, taking pics of virtual caches up and down the strip. How do I "post the pictures" as required by some of the cache owners? In fact, apart from upload ing pics from the "my cache" page ... how DO i add pics to logs?
TIA!

You mean people shop for cache stash in places other than McDonalds Happy Meal boxes?
