+BlackBuck Posted September 11, 2004 Share Posted September 11, 2004 (edited) This is for those places that are off limits to caches Such as federal lands, d.e.c.,near r.r. tracks ,etc but are worth hiking to or visiting.post a photo if you like.

+BMSquared Posted September 11, 2004 Share Posted September 11, 2004 I just had a cache rejected in the Old Union Cemetery in Wyckoff, NJ. It is on Wyckoff Avenue which changes names to Franklin Avenue right in that area. The coordinates were N 41° 00.891 W 074° 09.123 As NJ Admin pointed out, the cache was possibly less than appropriate for an old Historical Cemetery. It is just a pretty cool place. The entrance is sort of hard to spot, but it is 2 doors up from a church, and under a large, old, wooden sign. Quote Link to comment
+macatac1961 Posted September 12, 2004 Share Posted September 12, 2004 Rocky Point Natural Resources Management Area. (DEC Lands) N 40° 54.839 W 072° 55.073 I found a few caches in this area but also found they were grandfathered and can stay. Great place to hike. I hid one there just before I saw the thread on the ban. There are lots of great trails that we can't touch... bummer, bummer. Quote Link to comment

I'm just curious what their reasoning was since I've seen many physical caches in cemeteries. Or is it that they're getting tough on cache placement? Quote Link to comment
+BMSquared Posted September 12, 2004 Share Posted September 12, 2004 It was a physical cache, but on review, the cache was too close to a head stone. I e-mailed NJ Admin to find out if a relocated cache in the cemetery would be approved. I have not heard back yet. I might create a virtual here. I don't know what the official stand is on cemeteries. They seem to be allowed but discouraged. Quote Link to comment

+macatac1961 Posted September 13, 2004 Share Posted September 13, 2004 (edited) Is there a way to find out if a potential cache site is off limits due to NYDEC regulations without bugging the cache approvers? Edited September 13, 2004 by macatac1961 Quote Link to comment
