  1. If I am going to be holding on to a trackable for an extended period, I will always let the owner know, and also post something on the trackable itself.

     

    Of course..... I've got a couple that have been sitting in some bags for a few months now (and one I'm slightly worried about)

     

    As far as size goes - as long as its not a 5 gallon bucket, I have a couple of nearby "safe" caches where they can be placed without much worry.

  2. We have definatly seen our fare share of "geo junk" in caches - sometimes we will remove the trash if it is completly torn up/etc.

     

    Normally for us these days, it is TNLN SL - but - we do have a large bag of dollar store type items (disney hackey sacks - all new of course) which we will sometimes leave.

     

    Of course - as far as removing items - we actuallly found bullet casings in a cache last week (which were promptly removed) and have found a lot of pocket knives and matches lately.

  3. Well, if you are staying in Tempe, you should be able to cache to your hearts content no more than a few miles around you!

     

    Weather depending, there are a few good ones that can be had.

     

    There is Papago Park, and South Mountain Park, and a plethora of urban hides just about everywhere (this is my local stomping ground)

     

    If you go east a bit, you can make a find for GC57 (a little tricker this time of year - it is open desert, and you need to be prepared for that type of hike - about 5 miles round trip)

  4. One excellent drive is from Sedona up 89a to Flagstaff is also excellent!

     

    In the Sedona area - some of my favorite finds have been:

     

    November Juliet Echo Romeo India GC17EC9

    Home On The Porch GC19CXD

    Red Rock Ohana GC1TDX3 (One of our hides)

    10th Anniversary St. Patrick's Day Cache GCTZQ3 (In Jerome)

  5. I have a few "rotating" dipping coins that I use. When I am doing the coin for mileage (typically during caching runs) I use the following method:

     

    1. Drop the coin during cache log.

    - or - write note (stating dipping coin for mileage) then delete note

    2. Retrieve coin in trackable page.

     

    The coins details also state that it is a personal trackable and it will not be found in any cache.
