MN/Twin Cities area / permission to place caches?


Recommended Posts

Help! I have a couple caches burnin' a hole in my pocket and I just don't even know where to start on placing them. Whom do I ask permission to place them??

 

Thanks!!

 

Where in the Twin Cities?

 

I don't have a specific place staked out yet, but I was considering St Paul/West since it's lacking a bit. Though one is large so I need a big, juicy spot for it.

It seemed if you were asking about permission. But if you have a cache to hide but don't have a location, perhaps you need to get out and cache more and scout a nice location. Larger caches should be in larger parks. Consider parks at the county level.

I would also visit http://mngca.org/

 

Once you have a place in mind, review the specific guidelines for the area (city, county, park system, etc) you are hoping to hide in. (http://mngca.org/guidelines) And, as always, be sure to get things all set up via the "Hide A Geocache" column at http://www.geocaching.com/seek/

Search out the MNGCA on Facebook. Unfortunately, the local forums don't get much traffic these days.

Yes, I will go there again. Haven't been to that page in eons. Thanks for the tip!

Regardless of where you are, it works like this:

 

Find a spot you like.

 

Find out who owns the land.

 

Ask them.

 

So if I put a micro under a lamp post in a Walmart parking lot, I ask Walmart?

Or a lamp post on a boulevard? The City?

 

If you're hiding under a lamppost, then please just don't do it. :ph34r:

You ask BEFORE you place the cache. But yes, you ask Walmart, or the city.

Nope, not gonna do that. Just an example! Guess I just don't picture all those who placed LPCs got permission to do so. I'll figure it out. Somehow. Some way...

Well, when they submitted the cache listing, they all clicked on the box indicating that they have adequate permission for the hide. If they didn't seek adequate permission first, they lied.

That was the second step. I'm still trying to figure out what they liked about the locations.

You can reach the cache without getting out of your car. Obviously, that's a good place to hide one.
