Re: [Az-Geocaching] Caches in Wilderness Areas

The Superstition Wilderness area is off limits as I remember. The caches were confiscated.

Is there a global (Arizona) policy of "No Caches in Wilderness Areas?"

I know that there are about 89 Wilderness areas in Arizona. I have never heard of a No Caches in Wilderness Areas policy, across the board. Clearly, wilderness areas in the Coronado NF are of limits, and the Pusch Ridge WA is of limits. What about the others? And what is wrong with a well placed cache in a WA? I guess a cow, while out grazing, could accidentally trip over it or eat it. I think that the best thing to do is contact each WA individually and see what the policy is.

Can you summarize its details about geocaching. For some reason, I can't get into this file/attachment.



You need Adobe Reader (formerly known as Acrobat Reader) to open this file. It?s a free download from

If you already had ?Reader?, let me know and I will try to translate three pages of bureaucratese into something approximating English.

Till a voice, as bad as Conscience, rang interminable changes
On one everlasting Whisper day and night repeated -- so:
"Something hidden. Go and find it. Go and look behind the Ranges --
"Something lost behind the Ranges. Lost and waiting for you. Go!"
