So lets get started.
A quick and easy way to make a fun cache is to be thematic to the location, such as this cache hidden in the woods behind a ball field. It is a nano container in a baseball - simple, but effective.
I always appreciate a good gadget cache. This one requires the use of a credit card to get opened. When you push in the credit card, it trips a gate latch, which allows the door to be opened.
Sometimes the best geocaches are ones with a twist, or a trick. This next one has a locked ammo can and a bag of 50ish keys... only one unlocks the can... good luck! (It only took me 25 tries!) Note: if you were wondering, the ammo can and the bag of keys were hidden in a 5 gallon pail (not pictured).
This next cache is the exact opposite of the previous one. Sometimes the best creative caches are the simplest. This is a fake plant with a bison tube attached. This one is hidden 10ft off trail, but easily visible. 100 people a day walk past this point, but I bet none of them notice the cache hidden in plain view.
Using humour is also a great way to make a cache memorable. This cache is billed as the shortest multi-cache ever. I don't think I can argue that claim.
Hopefully this post has encouraged some of you to go out and build a creative cache. If it has, let me know about it by dropping it into the comments below.
