+ccm352 Posted August 6, 2004 Posted August 6, 2004 Any one ever hide a cache that requires someone to climb a tree?
+Corp Of Discovery Posted August 6, 2004 Posted August 6, 2004 Hidden? No. Found? Yes- more than once. Fun each time. They brought back good memories, as I was thought to be part monkey when I was young......
+Kfam Posted August 6, 2004 Posted August 6, 2004 This cache was in a tree. It caused a minor flap in the forums about safety then vanished shortly after. It really was a fun one!
WH Posted August 6, 2004 Posted August 6, 2004 I recently found a cache that was hidden on top of an abandoned telephone pole.
+Crouching Hiker, Hidden Cache Posted August 6, 2004 Posted August 6, 2004 (edited) I've also found a cache hidden in a tree (no ropes or pulleys) and had to climb about 20-25 feet up to retrieve it. The branches were many, and they were stable. I had a small debate with the folks I was with, as to the terrain rating of such a cache, i.e. if the tree itself counted as terrain, or only the land on the way to GZ. I voted the tree itself counted, and would therefore raise the terrain rating of such a cache. Although, I could also see the difficulty rating being increased instead.

+briansnat Posted August 6, 2004 Posted August 6, 2004 (edited) I have the first stage of a multi about 20 feet up in a pine tree. I also found several caches in trees. Its a common practice. With well over 100,000 caches active and probably half that number now archived, the answer to the question "Has anybody every hidden a cache in ______(fill in the blank)?" is invariably yes.

+Team DEMP Posted August 6, 2004 Posted August 6, 2004 See this log entry (cache is now archived) by BrainSnat and his adventure as it relates to this topic. Verona Park I (North) One of the most entertaining logs I've ever read!
