<p><span style='font-size:14.0pt;color:black'>I had a very similar experience.
I placed 3 caches near a well maintained dirt road in Coconino National Forest
here in Arizona. I put them in areas that i knew that people with kids or
people who could not hike long distances could easily find. I saw this as doing
a favor for people who could not do the difficult ones. After all Geocaching is
supposed to be fun for everyone. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span style='font-size:14.0pt;color:black'>Well, the person who logged the
ftf on all 3 left very negative comments about all 3 caches. Saying that they
do not belong in the forest. Like he was the jugde as to what could be put
there. The comments were not in the spirit of geocaching at all. Honestly, I
believe the guy (at the time) was being a total jerk about it. I wrote to him
telling him pretty buch what I just wrote and to lighten up. Its just a game
and I was going to delete his logs. He redemed himself and i thank him for
that. He apologized for his comments and edited all his logs. Story should be
over right?? well 2 disappeared and I noticed it just before the snow storm. I
have not been able to check on the 3rd. That is pretty much all I know so
please tell me if you think this is a cooincidence. I will be checking on the
3rd as soon as it dries out a bit. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

=============<br>
I have a cache at the Organ Stop Restaurant which is not just a restaurant but
a wonderful place to take your family for an enjoyable adventure. It has been
muggled a couple of times. Recently someone suggest that I archive it. The
reason was that "a restaurant parking lot was not a good place for a cache."
They went on to tell me that there were many scenic places in the Tonto forest
to place a cache.<br>
<br>
I would love to be able to have caches that are out in great scenic areas but I
have a full time job and cannot always get out to those types of places and
therefore could not maintain them properly.<br>
<br>
I also think that this cache location was a great idea. I have had a lot of
positive feedback but this was the first negative comment and I guess I was
kind of hurt. I responded that I was going to look for a more secure area at
the same location and this was when they suggested the forest cache.<br>
<br>
So my question to you all is this. Are these types of locations good......or
bad? Shall I archive it as suggested....or get more creative and find another
place at the same location??<br>
