[[Az-Geocaching] What we place in Urban Caches]

Hahaha, your solution (to light the firework right there) made me laugh.

Yes, please be careful what's placed in these caches. There's no guarantee
that they won't be found by little kids, especially if you hide them in
parks. When I was a kid, we never stuck to the "traditional" playground
areas alone. We explored into anywhere that we could gain access. So just
because you have a cache magnetized to the underside of a drinking fountain,
don't think that a little kid won't find it. :)

While driving through Utah last summer, we found an urban cache with a
firework in it. We decided to take it and dispose (ignite) it right there.
Sometimes people don't think about who might find the cache.
