Need advice on Multi-waypoints


Recommended Posts

I'm currently setting up a multi-cache.

It is rather large.

The attached image is of the markers for 6 of the points.

Two questions.

1) Should I post a pic on the cache page, so that people know what they are looking for?

2) I plan to drill a small hole into the disc, to run a wire, so i can hang them at their location. I figure if they're in plain(ish) site to a geocacher, they won't need to tear up the place, and at the same time, it's not like a container that someone would find the need to steal. Good idea? or should I just hide them in cracks/crevices etc.?

It depends in part on how difficult you are trying to make the cache. I have found multi's where each waypoint was something different and all you new was the size - micro, small, etc.

 

Some easy waypoints and some hard ones could be a good mix. You just have to decide how much you want to give away in the cache description.

I've thought of doing multi stages like that for a long time. I think you've already said too much by posting them here -- let it be a surprise.

 

I wouldn't post the pictures. Leave some surprise for the hunters.

 

Wow, you guys are sadistic. I hope I get a chance to hunt some of your caches, they must be plain evil.

The good kind of evil of course.

heh

well, it's ok, cause no one who will go for my cache actually reads these forums.

 

I cache in the south end sometimes. I will just have to see what I can do to prove you wrong. :unsure:

You don't seem to give your fellow geocachers much credit. I bet most would find those without the pics.

 

What you can do is offer to email the pics if someone registers a DNF.

Not at all! Well, some of my archived ones were a little evil. But really, unless I'm overestimating the size of those (I'm guessing 6-8" across), I don't think they'd be hard to find, and a cool surprise as they're fairly unique.
