+WINGRIDERS1998 Posted July 8, 2011 Share Posted July 8, 2011 We went for a motorcycle ride out to Cape Flattery yesterday. Great ride but I did notice there is no caches on the trail or at the end view point. Any one know why or is there any rules keeping caches out of here? I would think it would be a great spot for a cache. Quote Link to comment
+ZeroHecksGiven Posted July 8, 2011 Share Posted July 8, 2011 Isn't that all Makah Indian land? I believe you need explicit permission to place them, but I very well could be wrong and I'm not a reviewer. Maybe try contacting one of them for an answer Quote Link to comment
+EraSeek Posted July 8, 2011 Share Posted July 8, 2011 Yes, that's an awesome place. There used to be a cache out there, but new rules come along you know. Makah land. I don't know if anyone has approached them to place another, but I wonder if permission is needed for an Earthcache there. It would be a great spot for either. One of the primo spots in Washington for sure. Quote Link to comment

One of the primo spots in Washington for sure. When applicable the cache owner must have written permission from the owner or appropriate land-managing agency. The name, title and contact details of the person that authorized this EarthCache MUST be given at the time of submission in a "Reviewer Note". Quote Link to comment

I would think it would be a great spot for a cache. It is Makah land and you will need explicit permission, adequate does not cut it. You can contact the Makah at Makah Tribal Council PO Box 115 Neah Bay, Wa (360) 645-2201 makah@centurytel.net For answers to what areas have restrictions see Moun10bikes profile page under the Tips on hiding tab, he has a neat .kmz file that displays areas with restrictions.

The list of certain restricted areas is a bit out of date, thanks to the efforts of Hydnsek and the WSGA Parks Advocacy Committee. Discovery Park is now open to caches, National Parks are up to the individual park (Hydnsek has been able to hide caches in North Cascades National Park after much effort), and I believe caches are now permitted in Mercer Slough park.

+WINGRIDERS1998 Posted July 9, 2011 Author Share Posted July 9, 2011 Thanks for the info. We will look into placing a cache there. Quote Link to comment
