wulfgar_117 Posted February 15, 2009 Share Posted February 15, 2009 I'm thinking about putting a cache in a spot I found while hiking. It's in a wash, and there's a rock wall that I scrambled up, probably about 15 or 20 feet up. There's a perfect spot for a cache, and since it's in a wash it has to be that high, and I think it would be a funny place to put a cache.(it's an unpublished trail but it leads to a cool place) Should I make it a microcache or a medium size cache? I think micro just for the simplicity, and you wouldn't have to fiddle with more stuff or have to climb back down to fiddle with the loot, but my mom thinks that it isn't worth the climb if there's just a log. What would you do? Thanks for opinions Quote Link to comment

Dj Storm Posted February 15, 2009 Share Posted February 15, 2009 The bigger the better! Ditto, try to place a regular, if the hiding place is big enough for it. Quote Link to comment
+MightyReek Posted February 15, 2009 Share Posted February 15, 2009 Your mom is right. Forget the micro. If the place can hold a bigger container, you should hide a bigger container. It's a much better reward for those who reach it. Quote Link to comment
wulfgar_117 Posted February 15, 2009 Author Share Posted February 15, 2009 Alright alright I'll make it a big one! There's plenty of room, thanks for the advice, always good to hear what other geocachers like! Quote Link to comment
+cerberus1 Posted February 15, 2009 Share Posted February 15, 2009 Everyone would like to see the larger containers, but it may not always be possible. Does "hanging out" at the spot create a risk of losing one's balance and falling ? Everyone's not built the same. One may be able to stay put while signing and trading, while another may have to bring everything down with them and then replace it. I believe YOU have the right idea. If the wall leads one to "a cool place", couldn't it simply be a stage with coordinates in a multi ? Most going after this kind of hide wouldn't be looking for anything extra to carry. They'd be after the final spot you wanted them to see, not the swag. Cache safe. Quote Link to comment
wulfgar_117 Posted February 15, 2009 Author Share Posted February 15, 2009 (edited) I think Mom wins this discussion. Said wall monkey boy climbed would be fairly safe for the average joe to climb, stand at and fiddle with cache, and descend back down. We're still debating cache size, multi-stage, etc. Heh, heh -- Hundewanderer signed in as Wulfgar_117 Edited February 15, 2009 by wulfgar_117 Quote Link to comment
