Cache hiding idea

[Ateam-KY]

I had a idea... I love geo caching and plan on hiding several log caches that I plan on hiding. I came up with the idea of placing markers at a gps location and from that location have a certain amount of feet at a certain heading in degrees pointing to the actual cache. You would need a compass to get the heading off course.

I thought this would put a different twist on things.

 

Is this an acceptable way of hiding caches...

 

If you need further on this let me know and I will try to explain more.

We have a multi cache locally here that uses the same concept. It puts you in a spot where you have to then travel a certain distance along a bearing to find the cache.

 

Enjoyed that one. Good luck with it!

Yes, that is a simple waypoint projection. Nothing new about it.

Sounds fun. Just make sure you list it as a multi cache since the log will not be at the posted coords.

Often known as an offset cache - it is covered in the guidelines as a multicache.

Thanks to everyone that replied... I hadn't researched the hiding of new caches a lot... I am sure that this will work very well...I will post some stuff when I get it planted.
