+thesickness Posted June 13, 2008 Share Posted June 13, 2008 My simple ammo can in the woods cache got muggled and everything was taken... To replace this cache im planning on mixing a few different types of hunts. Please tell me what you think and any suggestions.... Here goes... It will be a 2 stage multi. The posted cood will lead to a micro with a puzzle that will tell you what color means what direction to turn. It will also give you cood for a trailhead not far from the micro. The final leg will be a night only cache with firedots that lead you to a nice sized ammo can. The colors of the firedots will tell you which direction to turn either left or right. I did one like this in jacksonville and we really enjoyed it. I was thinking about maybe adding some more difficulty. What do you think? Quote Link to comment
+infiniteMPG Posted June 13, 2008 Share Posted June 13, 2008 My simple ammo can in the woods cache got muggled and everything was taken... Was it too exposed or in a high muggle area?

Not bad but I would be sure to disclose what people are up against with the hide. If the final is night only, would stage one be findable at night? I'm not sure how many people like to make two trips to a cache location for one find. Since you stated the first stage would have coords for the "trailhead", I would assume that at night you're expecting people to leave stage 1 and go somewhere else and then look for the firedots??? How would they figure out where to go to find the firedots and snag the final??? Have good possibilities and I like night caches, as long as they're not near hogs or gators ) Quote Link to comment

+dark_onyx1982 Posted June 18, 2008 Share Posted June 18, 2008 Oh, this sounds like fun!!! What cache in Jacksonville is like that? I wanna try it. Quote Link to comment
+9Key Posted June 18, 2008 Share Posted June 18, 2008 I would split it into two different caches, the color coded multi and the night cache. They should be separate IMO. Quote Link to comment

Grrrrrrrrrrrrr..... Where's my flashlight?!?!?!?! Quote Link to comment

With gas prices at their current level, I'd not be too likely to make another trip there to find the second half. I'd be far more likely to put it on my Ignore list. Quote Link to comment

I get nailed by that like biking around to some local caches, I just PQ'd to my PDA and snagged my GPSr and took off. Started heading to one several miles off course and when I looked at the PDA I saw the first line state "Cache is not at listed coordinates". Oops, on a bike ride is no time to try to figure out a puzzle cache. Lesson learned, do your homework first Quote Link to comment

+Durango633 Posted June 19, 2008 Share Posted June 19, 2008 **SIGH** I need to take help anytime there is "Colors" to find/look for as I am color Blind and would avoid a cache like that if I didn't enlist help. Quote Link to comment
