M&Ms Posted January 1, 2005 Share Posted January 1, 2005 I was intrigued by a cache setter wondering why we didn't grade our off-road caches 5*. It is true that under the Clayjar system they would be however in the absence of upto date mhfares statistical analysis I would say that the majority of our caches are off-road. We do need to differentiate between the degrees of difficulty especially to guide those that wish to avoid geoatheleticing. Anyway we have a much high percentage of 4WD owners than you might expect to find elsewhere and I am only aware of one active local member that uses a saloon vehicle. To state again the defacto local gradings: 1* for blacktop, 2* for track passable to saloon vehicles, 3* for easy 4WD driving, 4* for challenging 4WD driving and 5* when convoys and full recovery gear is required. The difficulty for finding a cache is the norm that you would normally expect elsewhere. Quote Link to comment
BeautyLover Posted January 15, 2005 Share Posted January 15, 2005 what you saying makes sense to me otherwise you will find yourself rating the terrain rather than the cach aspects. Quote Link to comment
