This week, a marketing campaign for a television show was mistaken for a terrorist threat and the city of Boston, USA was temporarily shut down. For geocachers worldwide, this raises the issue of proper cache placement.

Please make sure to avoid placing a geocache in any location where it might be confused with something dangerous.


Important things to consider when placing or maintaining your geocache:

1. Make sure that your geocache can easily be identified as a geocache.

2. Use a clear container, if possible, so that the contents are easily identified.

3. Identify your container as a geocache by marking the outside of the container or attaching an Official Geocache sticker.

4. Make sure that you have permission from the landowner to place your cache on their property.

Please take the time to ensure that your cache is appropriately placed and contributes to the positive experience of others.
