Sorry, I didn’t see it among all the copious ammunition markings 😯
Two words: camo paint.
Or, “Goof Off.”
On the Left Side of the Road...I don’t see where that container is labelled “Geocache….”
On the Left Side of the Road...Dateline Hayward, WI – April 23, 2009. Today local officials were called out to detonate a suspicious device….

While not 100% on this, I think that most of the school hides do ask that they not be searched for during school hours. (at least the ones I have found)
Yes but how many people pay attention to what’s on the cache page, or how many are simply “waypoint caching” and do no research whatsoever?
I’ve got a cache that’s a four-mile trek and it says so on the cache page…unless you park along the road that’s clearly posted “no parking,” (on both sides of the road, every 10 feet) and climb over the barbed wire fence that is posted “no entry here.” So, when I see an “out caching with” team grab that “easy cache to find” on a “numbers run”…
Alex can attest that even putting 5″ high scrolling red lettering on a cache page does not prevent lazy or careless behavior.

were sad to see they had no Supersize Ammo cans
I know where you can find one…
On the Left Side of the Road...Be sure to read the linked news story that goes with this post as well. Unlike the Allouez incident article (and video), this one does not make geocachers out to be a bunch of terrorists. Unlike using loaded words such as “device,” this story uses neutral terms and refers to the “box” and the “geocache.” It also attempts to balance the “this is stupid” perspective with the “this has a purpose” perspective.
Proof that it can be done!
On the Left Side of the Road...Hence this cache: GC1E5CM
s|s, it would not surprise me at all if certain people left your caches out on purpose.
On the Left Side of the Road...I also wouldn’t be surprised if they haven’t put it out yet! It was designed to run as a 10-day contest so why would they chance it being found on one of the first few days?
You know those times you go back on a DNF and find a cache where you swear you looked before and someone must have obviously taken it and put it back?

while the medallion goes unfound, geocachers in brown county have a new excuse to give to muggles when asked what you are looking for as you circle and stare at pine trees in the parks.
“why I’m lookin’ for packer medallions of course!”
Heck, you can use this excuse even after it’s found. Just say you’re looking for the NEW contest! You heard it was on a bridge, near an airport, or in a wayside somewhere. 😈
On the Left Side of the Road...Well, anybody that has ever been dismayed to see an area trashed by people looking to find a geocache–which isn’t worth anything–would have seen that hanging something in a tree “somewhere in Brown County” worth hundreds (thousands?) of dollars would likely generate some bad behavior.

I’m thinking its in bay beach park…
Not likely. It doesn’t really match the clues well, other than the “screaming kids” one. Plus, Bay Beach is currently closed. And I don’t mean just the amusement rides, I mean the park itself is closed.
More likely this is in DePere, in the Voyager park area. It’s a match for nearly everything.
Field reports indicate that the parks are swarming with people and the trees don’t stand a chance. People have pretty much everything but chain saws out there and are doing some damage. Any cache you have in any parks that border either the east or west side of the Fox River from the Bay to DePere, assume that they are long gone. One got tagged for sure in Ashwaubomay park.
So far, no bomb squad calls though.
On the Left Side of the Road...Yaaaawn.
On the Left Side of the Road...Anybody have a cache in a pine tree in Brown County? –
