I am making a large geocache designed as a fake electrical box alongside a path in a public park. It IS going to be a Travel Bug hotel and all my previous geocaches have had themes (that aren’t micro) so I thought I could implement an art gallery theme. I’m planning to hot glue a few mini paintings like in a gallery to the inside door or wall with mini frames and hanging string. There will also be hooks for trackables and a mini folder for cachers to trade a swap A5 or smaller drawings or art at. There will be a mini box at the bottom for items like geocoins, toys and collectibles, on the cover will be my personal trackable code for geocachers to discover. Of course with a logbook and rules as well.

Is this a good idea? Any alterations? Any extra ideas? Anything will help! Thanks you.

Hey everyone, I’m planning a large multi-cache in a private park (with permission) and wanted advice from people who’ve made long-lasting caches. The final is going to be mounted right beside a public path on a wall, probably disguised as some kind of maintenance/utility-style box, with the code for a padlock hidden about 100m away as part of the multi. I want it to be a proper large trinket-style cache with swag, keyrings, stickers, maybe a few trackables — something memorable, not just another box of rocks and damp junk. So how do I keep it the way I leave it without dying out? What signs should I put?

Also, what stickers should I put on the electrical box to camouflage it or hint on it?

Also I’m torn on theme ideas for the container/interior. Since it’s next to a public path it needs to look low-profile to muggles, but I still want a cool theme inside — I have made an Egyptian themed cache before where you translate the hyroglyfics. What themes have worked well for you or caches you’ve found for wall-mounted large caches? Any ideas or facts learned would be amazing.
