![]() I am not aware of anyone in my area "intentionally" placing a cache directly in poison oak - although I suppose it depends on whether its a specific or general intent type of thing. ![]() I have not yet encountered a geocache that was intentionally hidden in poison ivy, oak, sumac, nettles, etc. If the container is buried in poison, be sure that information is in your DNF log. As with many caches, if you're bushwhacking through the tangled jungle to get to my cache, the problem is your poor route selection. Don't play with the "dead" hairy vines, and it's clear sailing.įor a bunch of my caches, I keep my route somewhat clear, so I can do maintenance. Around here (Georgia), that's the perfect time to venture into the forest. Hunt in winter, after the frost hits, or after the thaw. Poison ivy and many other vines may take over an area that was previously clear of them, and next year will be different. Wear shoes and long pants in these places (denim or something like that). ![]() Before taking the trip, check the cache description, the attributes and the logs. There are many caches nowhere near poison ivy. Here in the upper Midwest (MN) there seems to be a rash (no pun intended) of morons who hide their geocaches in poison ivy patches.Īnyone else run into this problem? These should be reconsidered.Īvoid the rash.
