W:IMs* = Warning: Imported Mischief Series. In my travels, I
occasionally encounter new and unusual hides and import them for
local implementation. This is one of them.
Arizona Caches seem to fall in two major classes. At one end of the
spectrum is the cookie tin, no camo, tucked behind a cactus or out
in the desert, under a conspicuous pile of rocks, bruised and
battered by their entombment. No real challenge for that kind of
cache, the reward of the hunt lying in the journey to the find,
across the desert, into the mountains, or a winding walk down an
aroyo.
At the other end of the spectrum is the elaborately camouflaged
container, often based on a small candy tin, hidden in plain sight
in an urban environment. As a rule, these containers wouldn't
survive the elements commonly found East of the Mississippi.
The latter of these two container types is the subject of this
hide, thus the cache name, Arizona Gold Standard #2. This container
is inspired by caches I have found in front of a Home Depot in
Tucson, a Hilton hotel in Phoenix, a Community College parking lot
in Mesa and a Staples in neighboring New Mexico. The task before
you should be obvious as you approach ground zero. If not, you are
probably at the wrong ground zero. If you want to follow Arizona
caching tradition be sure and leave a small trinket in the cache. A
marble, coin, plastic animal, Cracker Jack toy or other junk that
goes flying in every direction when you open the container is
common swag.
Enjoy the hunt and return the cache to the spot you found it.
The usual rules apply: watch for muggles and sign and date the log,
if, by chance, you find the cache.
