This is the same issue you have with multis. I don’t see what the big deal is.
Also I might point out that since you were proposing a night cache, which has by definition an unpublished final location…
Should be listed as a “Unknown”?
10/19/2010 at 8:40 pm #1937504Yep. That night cache is gonna cause the same problem for those easily frustrated newbie cachers, cachers who don’t like night caches, are afraid of the dark, etc etc etc…

On the Left Side of the Road...10/19/2010 at 8:59 pm #1937506I find it hard to believe that the number of mystery caches is a problem any where in the state. I live in Waukesha County which I believe has the highest number of caches of any county in Wisconsin. I have placed over 200 caches, 50+ this year. I placed 3 yesterday and 2 today. I have about 20 in my head and know exactly where I will place them when I get around to it. I have suggested possible locations to new cachers and they were very appreciative. That might be an option. As much as I like to place caches I like to find them too (over 3000 finds) and I can’t find my own.
10/19/2010 at 9:01 pm #1937507HMMM? I remember being a newbie geocacher, newbie programmer, and newbie and having to get over the hump (i.e. learning curve).
It’s just part of the process of becoming a seasoned veteran of the sport. Along with learning how to find spots, comes learning more creative hide techniques, learning better search techniques, etc.
But I do know there are hundreds of great spots available once you get 0.1 miles from any road or along a trail. I don’t know the Green Bay area as well, but my “home” turf includes the Fox Valley and west area which has at least 3 very sparsely populated hiking / biking trails, plus thousands (yes thousands) of acres of DNR / County managed lands just begging for a cache. Once parcel in particular is 12,000+ acres and has only about a dozen caches making it about 1000 acres per cache for a density factor.
