I once found one using a pulley hung up in a tree.

I have a geocache in CT “I had a bright Idea” http://coord.info/GC2G369 The geocache is a fake light bulb attached to a socket about 20ft up a tree. Since its on open space land that was a former golf course there is a nice paved walkin trail. I placed the cache on the backside of a tree so that it would be harder to spot, but so far alot of people have commented they love it.

my favorite was at a gas station by the tire filling air. there was a pipe with an air fitting on the bottom , air had to be applied to blow the cache out the top of the pipe.

[...] touched on this subject a little while back in a post titled "Geocaching Hiding Spots" but I wanted to talk a little more about it. I actually have a cache in a tree in my front yard [...]

My last cache hide was a birdhouse, screwed securely in a DEAD tree. problem solved. The different part of mine cache is when you open the front there is no cache. It has to be figured out.

I work at a rather large hospital facility, and my window faces the parking lot. I have been debating for about a week on hiding a cache in the handicapped parking sign right where I can keep an eye on it. I’m sorta anxious to watch all the cachers all day long. I have several other clever caches in mind (one right outside our house). Sometimes (like you said initially) its just as fun to HIDE the caches as it is to find them.

OMG enough of the birdhouse in a tree slams. A nail in a damn tree is not gonna kill the tree. After 100 years of growing through storms, winds, and climate changes, it is not going to one day up and scream “HE STABBED ME WITH A NAIL!!!” and keel over dead! It might confuse the crap outta a couple birds but then guess what??? They will become geocachers as well. It is a great and very creative idea. To all that think a nail in a tree in the middle of a forest is DEFACING it… let’s be serious.

The image in the post is in Germany. The image was used with a create commons license… I don’t know whose cache or tree that is. I think the tree will be just fine though One little nail or screw isn’t going to hurt an old tree like that.

Ok, I hate to be the fuddy duddy here, but we really need to be careful when nailing things or birdhouses to a tree. Although its a cool idea, it can potentially harm the tree, and that should be avoided.
