There’s a New Cache in town — Part 0

So, we’ve found a few caches now — it’s our turn to place one or two. This past week­end we took the trip to the local Wal­Mart to check out con­tain­ers. Find­ing a good, weather-proof con­tainer is import­ant for our caches — we’re in North-western Canada so it has to sur­vive the rav­ages of winter.

It wasn’t an easy task — most con­tain­ers are designed for cup­boards, not shrub­bery — and at a reas­on­able price too! We did find a couple, but they would be most obvi­ous in any hide, so I thought I’d do a bit of research on GeoCaching’s for­ums — wow, talk about a great source of information.

The best tip, Cam­o­tape — from the hunting/painting sec­tions of Wal­Mart or Cana­dian Tire. One roll should do us fine. Now some of those other folk, now they have more time on their hands…

Part 1 will have more info on the upcom­ing cache.
