RE: [Az-Geocaching] Superstition Caches

You're right, Dan, it doesn't mention it anywhere. The "Guide to
Creating and Hiding a Cache"
http://www.geocaching.com/articles/making.asp does say this, though:
"If you place the cache on public lands you need to contact the managing
agency to find out about their rules."

I'm not trying to be pugnacious, but can someone point me to where it
says that caches cannot be located in wilderness areas? I don't see any
mention of it on the 'Cache Listing Requirements' page on
geocaching.com.

Thanks,
Dan

Subject: [Az-Geocaching] Superstition Caches

I've been trying to avoid this thread, but I've had a few private emails
in addition to what's been posted on the listserver, so I'm going to
quote myself, and reuse part of a reply I sent to another cacher,
because I haven't seen this point of view surface here yet:

I think the rangers had every right to do what they did. I have two
reasons for that view. Number one, designated wilderness areas have
always been off-limits to cache placement. Even Scott Wood, who welcomes
caches in Tonto, excluded designated wilderness areas, and the
Superstitions, including the entire area around the Peralta Trail, are
so designated.
