Multi-cache

[+Crafty Turtle]

I am planning a multi....

 

The cache itself is at the creek - a box: locked with a 3-digit combination lock.

The 3 digits are my house number up the road (1/4 mile, tops). It's clearly visible on the letterbox.

 

Which way round should I do this?

 

Option 1 - the traditional way round___

If I do the letterbox first, I have to have the co-ordinates for the real cache on (at the back of) the letterbox, plus a note to remember the house number.

This means

A. ppl would have to step onto my property (which I don't have a problem with, but they might), and

B. I have landscapers there till Christmas, so there's a high chance of being muggled. Not to mention the landscaper asking me what's these coords on the letterbox for. Yeah, right, like he won't notice?

 

Option 2___

If I do the actual cache first, I need to put the coords of where the lock-code is to be found, and they have to head up the hill (with our without the cache), find the number (from a strategic non-chalant distance), and come back down the hill to replace the cache

 

Option 1 is more risk of being spotted, whereas Option 2 involves retracing steps. Both fairly minor, but I'd still like opinions. And how do I get around the obstacles?

 

Opinions? Advice?

Option 3 - post the coordinates for your letterbox that has the combination and also post the coordinates for the final. Cachers will stop by and find the three digit combo needed to open the lock at the final.

Well that's just too easy.

 

Why didn't I think of it?

 

Thanks!

 

And it also means I get to publish the coordinates to my house. ...I am such a nerd.
