+July4ers Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 (edited) Hello, I created very enthusiastic my first own cache in a region, where a lot of multi-points interfere my idea. How could I find out in advance such things. Otherwise it takes long until the reviewer gives feedback and would be better to see "free space" in advance. Or, how would you do that? I know, it is not the idea to find out the cache multi-points, just the region with "no goes". Kind regards, SomeintPhia Edited April 24, 2012 by SomeintPhia Quote Link to comment
+sTeamTraen Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 You could go out and find the local Multi-caches, and note where their physical stages are located. Quote Link to comment

Kind regards, SomeintPhia The best way to know where all the relevant waypoints are in a region is to find any and all caches, including multicaches and puzzles and Wherigos, etc. before placing a new cache.

+July4ers Posted April 25, 2012 Author Share Posted April 25, 2012 Thank you both for the ideas .. it would then take years to place a new cache, especially because of some difficulties of the caches .. ;-) ... I'll try out and will find the best place for my new one. Kind regards, SomeintPhia Quote Link to comment

Good luck placing your first cache. Quote Link to comment
+redsox_mark Posted April 25, 2012 Share Posted April 25, 2012 I agree it isn't easy, and sometimes you have bad luck. I recently placed a new cache in an area where I had found every cache within 3 miles except 2 difficult puzzles which I still can not solve. As luck would have it, my first attempt clashed with puzzle 1, and my second with puzzle 2. Quote Link to comment
+July4ers Posted April 27, 2012 Author Share Posted April 27, 2012 ... finally I succeeded with my first one, but not the one I mentioned before ... there, "I still haven't found, what I'm looking for" .. ;-) Quote Link to comment
