I do agree that the hunt, finding a cache, and the location are the greatest rewards - not the contents. I guess I was turned off by this specific micro-cache not because of the size or contents of the cache, but how "easy" it was. The description provided the name of the city park the cache was located in, but also gave directions similar to: "located at the SouthEast corner of the tennis courts, hidden in the crack of the large rock at the base of the spruce tree with I LOVE CONNIE carved in it." And this description wasn't the encrypted clue. We found the cache without using the GPS. I was disappointed at how easy it was to find the cache. I like cache hunts with a little challenge. I'm sure there's plenty of challenging micro-cache's out there.
