Cache size question

[+cbearw]

I recently drilled out one end of 6" diameter piece of firewood to fit a waterproof match container. The match container itself is a micro but the log itself could be listed as small or even regular. When I write up the cache page on geocachintg.com do I call this a micro or go by the size of the object I placed it in (the piece of firewood) which would be called a small or even regular? Thanks..........Tom

You go by the size of the container itself.

The container is a micro. The camo is a bit larger.

 

If I place an ammo can in a hollow fallen tree, would you consider it a large??

Good analogy except i have seem ammo cans that my kids will fit in. But we get the point.

Yep, it's a micro.

Why do you keep your kids in an ammo can?

Definately a micro bud.

I would consider it to be a micro, because if it's listed as regular or large, visitors might get the idea that there is enough space in the cache to hide trackables or trade items. Personally, though, I would be inclined to list such a cache as size "not chosen" to make it more of a surprise.

Ease of storage mostly. Plus they dont wreck the house this way.

Thanks all for your responses. Micro it is.

David M thats a good point about what others may be led to believe about what they can put in it if it was listed as anything larger. Happy caching!!.................cbearw
