|  | | | Just had a thought....Geocasching is catching on all over....What about leaving a geocasch to be found by others in various abandonments?

| | | | It's geocaching, and you can't put a cache in a building without permission. Also they frown on places people could be hurt. I doubt you could sneak one by the mods, every cache is reviewed to make sure it meets all the rules.

| | | | That's just letterboxing for people that have Nextel phones, right?
I think we'd be better off just having a list of geocasches/letterboxes set up on an international urbex website somewhere. Like.. UER or something.
Also, why is this in the North East?

| | | | You can't really put a cache in a building because you lose sat. reception. And, as already mentioned, you can't put a cache on private property without securing land owner permission first.

| | | | Let me clarify my idea.
I was only suggesting it might be cool to hide a cash in a building for other Urban explorers to find.
Instead of signing your name use an alias.
Directions (Not GPS) could be posted for inside buildings.
Geoasching could be modified for UE.
We would have to have our own secret geocasch I did not intend to include UE Geocasch with legit geocasch.com
EXCUUUUUUUESE ME for not being really clear.
I was looking for other "UE only" people interested in maybe hiding a note book or something to sign a nickname after a fellow UE explored the site.

| | | | Exactly the reason why geocaching and urbex don't mix.

| | | | Im not familiar with "Letterboxing" with Nextel phones but I assume they have GPS capabilities.
I guess what I was trying to suggest was A note pad or book be hidden in abandonments for other explorers to view & add their own "Tag" Alias.
Directions to find these could be posted in the respective forum of course GPS wont work indoors so location must be done the old fashioned way.
Kind of like a treasure hunt.
