+Pat in Louisiana Posted April 2, 2008 Posted April 2, 2008 This may have been covered before but I couldn't find it. What about a large anchored cache with a combination lock. If someone stumbles upon it they can't do anything with it without the combination (listed on the cache page). Method of anchor can only be accessed from inside the box Any thought? Quote
+BCandMsKitty Posted April 2, 2008 Posted April 2, 2008 I have read about similar caches with the difference that it is a multi where you get the combination from the preceeding stages, with the locked box being the final. Sounds to me like your idea will be ok. Quote
+Taoiseach Posted April 2, 2008 Posted April 2, 2008 I know if I did that the combination would be in a film canister better than a mile away ] But yea, that is a great Idea! Quote
+Pat in Louisiana Posted April 2, 2008 Author Posted April 2, 2008 This would be used in a high muggle area. Quote

+Pat in Louisiana Posted April 2, 2008 Author Posted April 2, 2008 sorry about the mulit post laptop locked uup Quote
+gof1 Posted April 2, 2008 Posted April 2, 2008 In a high muggle are I would think that such a container may attract too much attention. Quote
+GIDEON-X Posted April 2, 2008 Posted April 2, 2008 Good Idea there are a few around this area (Yuma) that fit that style........ one of the better ones is The A.T.M. ............. (Check The Pic"s) Quote

+J-Way Posted April 2, 2008 Posted April 2, 2008 There are at least two near here that call themselves Travel Bug Hotels. They are in plain sight, and are basically locked boxes strapped to utility poles and painted to look like official utility boxes. They're probably invisible to the average pedestrian; just a plain grey box strapped to a pole, just like millions of other plain grey boxes strapped to other poles. The lock is a simple outdoor rated combination lock, and the combination is in the description. Quote
+TMDMom Posted April 2, 2008 Posted April 2, 2008 This one is a free standing safe under a magnolia tree in an office parking lot. Not well hidden, but not exactly out in the open. You have to have the puzzle components to figure out the combo. Really cool cache, and the biggest one I've found. Quote
+Kryten Posted April 2, 2008 Posted April 2, 2008 You can get the same effect by fitting a waterproof combination lock to a standard ammo can. Conventional strong boxes may not like the great outdoor experience. Quote

I think it would pique the interest of nearly anybody who accidentally discovers it and someone is bound to try to get inside to see what is there. If someone wants to get inside badly enough he will. Quote
+9Key Posted April 2, 2008 Posted April 2, 2008 I just put out a "strong" box this last weekend - lugged it about a quarter mile out into the woods. Its one of those pick up truck tool boxes and I added a combo lock to it. We'll see how it goes. Quote
+Pat in Louisiana Posted April 2, 2008 Author Posted April 2, 2008 The reason for the strong box approach is mainly to kid proof it in a local park. Several caches are MIA from there. Quote
