Cache Permanence 

As the Frequently Asked Questions indicate, geocaches can be hidden in a location for a finite period of time, depending on the environment and the decision of the cache owner. 

However, when you report a cache on the web site, geocachers should (and will) expect the cache to be there for a realistic and extended period of time. Therefore, caches that have the goal to move, or temporary caches (ex: Caches hidden for events) will not be approved. If you wish to hide caches for an event, bring printouts to the event and hand them out there. 





Don't need a Lawyer here what is a Realistic period of Time??? how many logs will fit inside a Altoids tin on a printed peice of paper....

I think they think they should conserve the GC numbers 



I noticed on the City of Mesa Website there are 59 city parks  and dogs are allowed in all retention basins

    There are so many rules now, I can see that in five years time I will need to retain a lawyer to understand what I can and can't do (as usual) ;)

  During past discussions, I have said that once the rules get too onerous, people will stop participating in this game.  After my last experience hiding a virtual cache, I have to admit that I have lost most interest in hiding caches any longer.  I will probably get over it, but I don't really agree with all of the new rules for hiding caches.

  I would prefer to see geocaching.com remain as a depository for waypoints, and stay out of the rules game, but as so many other things, that doesn't seem to be the way things are going.
