+sword fern Posted April 16, 2011 Share Posted April 16, 2011 I was wondering if people had ideas for camouflage for nano caches...any ideas appreciated. Quote Link to comment
+mpilchfamily Posted April 16, 2011 Share Posted April 16, 2011 I've seen hollowed out sticks and logs with the nano glued in. Some they where sticking out one end. On others the stick/log had an inch or more cut off the top and put on a pivot to help con seal the container more. The ones stuck in the end where often stuck into holes in trees where a branch once was and looked like a dead branch. I've seen them stuck inside a hollowed out end of a large pine cone. There are also plenty of fake rocks out there. Quote Link to comment
+Running Crazy Posted April 16, 2011 Share Posted April 16, 2011 I think that it depends on where you are planning on hiding. I think that the sky is the limit as to camo...just depends on how evil you want to be. Quote Link to comment
+Barefoot One & Wench Posted April 16, 2011 Share Posted April 16, 2011 Like nano's aren't already evil, you have to camo them ? Quote Link to comment
+jacob501 Posted April 16, 2011 Share Posted April 16, 2011 um...i think the difficulty rating on the cache page only goes up to 5 stars not 8...please don't try to break it! Quote Link to comment
+Flintstone5611 Posted April 16, 2011 Share Posted April 16, 2011 I often opt for using a bigger cache to avoid the maintenance hassles that come from using a nano! Quote Link to comment
+ApanAnn Posted April 16, 2011 Share Posted April 16, 2011 Glue it into a large fake bug? Quote Link to comment
AZcachemeister Posted April 17, 2011 Share Posted April 17, 2011 Feed it to the dog. He will create an excellent camo for it! Quote Link to comment
knowschad Posted April 17, 2011 Share Posted April 17, 2011 Oh, nuts!! I wasn't aware of this thread. I just posted this to the Death of Geocaching thread... it would have been better here!! Quote Link to comment
+mpilchfamily Posted April 17, 2011 Share Posted April 17, 2011 (edited) Nice photo shop job. That would be a very large fly. Here's an idea. Put it in an acorn. The top of the acorn can be epoxied to the lid making it a very evil cache. Edited April 17, 2011 by mpilchfamily Quote Link to comment

The acorn thing has been done, although I, thankfully, have never had to look for one (yet)! There is also someone selling them disguised as wads of chewing gum. Quote Link to comment

+kc9gbo Posted April 19, 2011 Share Posted April 19, 2011 Hide it with a tank camo job! Seems that's the most popular way to camoflauge them the best. Quote Link to comment
+lamoracke Posted April 19, 2011 Share Posted April 19, 2011 given this guy hides stuff in my area am not giving any more ideas. Quote Link to comment
+lamoracke Posted April 19, 2011 Share Posted April 19, 2011 I see you have changed your userid. Your old one shows up in the new caches of late, but the forum topic was your old one. Strange. Quote Link to comment
+popokiiti Posted April 20, 2011 Share Posted April 20, 2011 We have a nano up the rear end of a (fake) tree frog. Quote Link to comment
+Wacka Posted April 21, 2011 Share Posted April 21, 2011 I've seen them glued into snail shells and buckeye shells. Quote Link to comment
+va griz Posted April 21, 2011 Share Posted April 21, 2011 I found one that was glued inside a nut so it looked like the end of a bolt sticking out with a nut on it. It was painted perfectly and fooled several cachers for a couple days. Quote Link to comment

Wasn't too hard, but it fooled a few people, and got some good comments. Quote Link to comment
+emtfire10 Posted April 22, 2011 Share Posted April 22, 2011 Guardrail bolts work good to hide a nano. They even work good themselves as a nasty micro. Quote Link to comment
