[Az-Geocaching] Caching Group

[ShadowAce]

Pusch Ridge Wilderness has no fences and very few signs.

Basically when you place a cache and submit it to groundspeak you checked
the box which reads:
Yes. I have read and understand the guidelines for listing a
cache<http://www.geocaching.com/about/guidelines.aspx>
.

Which implies;
By submitting a cache listing, you assure us that you have adequate
permission to hide your cache in the selected location.

BLM permission is only required for caches on BLM lands
They do not care what you put in the parking lot of a store however the
store manager/owner might get a tad upset. Everyone saying 'Use Stealth'
gets me nervous as I am the person who has had a gun pointed at me when the
property owner found me searching for a cache on land they owned and knew
nothing of the cache.

Links to help find property owners:

http://gorp.away.com/gorp/resource/us_wilderness_area/az.htm

http://www.wilderness.net/index.cfm?fuse=NWPS&sec=stateView&state=az

Last but not least would be http://sco.az.gov/website/parcels/viewer.htm <-
with this site (once you learn how to use it) you can find out any area of
Arizona and see if it is national forest, blm, state, private, tribal lands,
NPS, ect. ect

 Hope this helps
