I voted for "B," but I would have liked a choice between "A" and "B."

 

Would it be possible to relocate the first stage of the multicache?

We would only shut the cache site down to move the fist site, or leave the first one in place and add another starting point for when the initial site was too busy to get access to...does that make sense?? It's our first cache so any suggestions would be appreciated.

I voted B...it's not a big deal to move one or more of the legs, it just requires a little work on your part. Now if the different stages are all linked or related somehow, you may have a tougher time with this. I have a multi and all the legs are located around Railroad-related spots..if I had to move a leg, I'd have to find another Railroad related spot, you catch my meaning?

 

I guess you just have to decide how much you really want to use that first location.

I would vote for B. It's not difficult to relocate a cache, just mention it in a log note so people on the watch list get a notice.

Well, it looks like I'm the sole voter for option "C!" This is probably because I'm biased after my experiences hunting the cache in question yesterday. It took me over an hour of waiting around for people to clear out of the area before I could reach stage 1! I guess I want others to have to go through the challenges that I did!

 

Actually, you are probably best off to go for option "B." If you leave things as is, it's quite likely that someone will eventually hunt the cache who is not as patient as I was, and that will expose the cache to plundering.
