+Squirrel Nut & Beersnob Posted January 17, 2003 Share Posted January 17, 2003 Say you just won the lottery. You want to share your good fortune with fellow cachers by creating the cache of your dreams. You can buy any type property you like (within reason. Something more than 1-2 ppl a year would/could visit), place any type props you want to, even hire someone to design and build paths/gardens/etc if you want. What would you do? Anyone already placed youtr ultimate dream cache? I'd love to get about 1,000 acres or more, with decidious and evergreen forrest areas, a decent sized creek, varying landsacpe - flat to hilly. I'd focus on the journey's the thing... and create a multi cache tat takes you through a hedge maze, a 'fairy garden' with windchimes and those marbled glass garden balls, maybe a few other cool gardens that I dream up... and a few out-of place cach hiding places - in a catalog I got recently I saw a fake surveilance camera. Thought that would be a hoot, to attach one of those things to a tree! I walk the Maze of Moments, but everywhere I turn to, begins a new beginning, but never finds a finish... -Enya, Anywhere Is Quote Link to comment
enfanta Posted January 17, 2003 Share Posted January 17, 2003 ... I'd hire away some folks from Martha Stewart to make the containers I keep thinking of but never seem to find the time to construct. Any leftover funds would go to creating a wicked huge topiary maze-- at least 10 acres of dense shrubbery that one would have *no* hope of crawling through. One would be forced to follow the twisty turny path, hoping that they'll get to the coordinates somehow... Quote Link to comment
+Renegade Knight Posted January 17, 2003 Share Posted January 17, 2003 With my vast wealth my caches would look about the same. But my trademark items would switch to something like silver bars. Or old silver dollars that really are silver. Wherever you go there you are. Quote Link to comment
+niskibum Posted January 17, 2003 Share Posted January 17, 2003 I would fill the cache with rino's. It would be more fun having one if all the other cachers in the area had one too. Quote Link to comment

+Mr. Snazz Posted January 17, 2003 Share Posted January 17, 2003 It'd be draped in sort of sun-god robes, on top of a pyramid, with a thousand geocachers screaming and throwing little pickles at it. Quote Link to comment
+Treasure Hunters Inc. Posted January 17, 2003 Share Posted January 17, 2003 After we win the Megamillions $150,000,000 jackpot you can all come to our cache mountain and hunt for and place caches in any of the beautiful scenic areas, along the bubbling streams, or in the steep walled hollows, or just off the paved handicap/family friendly easy trails through landscaped gardens. And one of our caches will be stocked like the cache of your dreams by special request. $1000 Bill Quote Link to comment

targetdrone Posted January 19, 2003 Share Posted January 19, 2003 I would have to finally get to place the Anna Kournikova Cache. I suppose somebody would be willing to check the coords for me.... "It's free advice and worth every cent." Quote Link to comment
BassoonPilot Posted January 19, 2003 Share Posted January 19, 2003 A challenging 5 mile hike, with a minimum 500 foot tough, yet non-technical, ascent in the last quarter mile. The coordinates would lead to a small rock cave behind a waterfall with 10,000 possible hiding spots and no gps reception ... and no clues. Quote Link to comment

+TeamJiffy Posted January 19, 2003 Share Posted January 19, 2003 ...I'd set up a comfortable space shuttle for any and all cachers, which would carry you to a space station, which would then be a place for you to transfer to one of several comfortable, luxury-liner-class regularly scheduled transport ships to the moon... you'd land on the moon, to find yourself docked to the side of a big multi-square-kilometer pressurized / heated dome, and then you'd be given a LPSr (Lunar Positioning System receiver) and asked to find the first Lucacache! Once found, you'd then head back home... ..of course, the Lunacache would be housed in the standard ammo box, and after a week or so, it would probably be filled with the standard McToys left as trade items .

+st_richardson Posted January 19, 2003 Share Posted January 19, 2003 ...to fill an ammo can with dollar bills with some large bills for the first finders. I wouldn't make the ammo can to hard to find. On the other hand, the micro with the coordinates and the combination for the ammo can would be well hidden. Of course it would be on private land with well placed web cams. The land would be posted with signs reading "NO TRESPASSING WITHOUT GPS IN HAND." Quote Link to comment
+briansnat Posted January 20, 2003 Share Posted January 20, 2003 A gladware container filled with junk drawer discards and placed in a garbage strewn urban lot. Oh wait, that's been done. "Paternalism is the greatist despotism" - Emmanual Kant Quote Link to comment

Oh wait, that's been done. Don't be so hard on yourself, Brian; most of your caches weren't that bad. I saw the log someone posted a little further up about placing a "Lunacache." Great idea; maybe I'll place a lousy, needle-in-the-haystack micro on the site of the former Luna Park on Coney Island ... the location, if not the cache, would certainly match Brian's description.
