It is probably this: Geocaching has become so popular now (which is also reflected in the sometimes bad quality of many new cache) that simple self-evident truths need to be published. In a joint paper Garmin writes together with the German Association of walking / hiking the German youth uA:
- Proprietary Habitats are not a place for caches
- tree holes may not be used as caches
- caves, seemingly uninhabited by animals are not occupied with caches
- hatching and settling times are very sensitive and aware
Obviously this is so selbverständlich that even the mirror on the problems of trying so many geocachers, 's attention. Also it seems a geocache on the island, the bird sanctuary, and where the admission is therefore prohibited to give.
Now there are people complaining already that one but in beautiful places such as nature conservation areas will not caches hide more could, while the thing is really trivial:
- Conservation and Environmental Protection has 100% priority over caches. In Germany, more than 100,000 caches, because you do not have to hide other caches in such places.
- The solution to the problem is simple: just a multi-cross the nature reserve (of course in ways) put the actual box outside the area.
- Another point which is not negligible: in order to minimize the impact of reckless cache should contain caches in nature a reasonable hint and a spoiler photo! The latter need the common Statistikcacher, which is right on the hunt for the next point by any means, not dig up half the forest and destroy moss.
Update: moncat has written a nice blog article on the issue.
