Guidelines for Cache Placement in State Parks

In an effort to promote a working relationship with the Washington State Park Service, please adhere to these guidelines for placing a cache in any Washington State Park. Note that the Geocache Directive is not 'on the books' at this writing but the WSGA strongly suggests following it. The guidelines are quite reasonable.

Before a cache may be placed within a park, the cache owner/ placer should schedule a meeting with the ranger or manager responsible for the park in question. As some park personnel are aware of GEOCACHING, others are not, be prepared to explain our sport/game.

WSGA suggests the following:

Park personnel have the final say about all caches within the boundaries of the parks they serve. Please remember that the park rangers are on duty to protect the lands and the various user groups within the parks. If they take actions you feel are not appropriate, do not argue with them. Bring your concerns to the WSGA Advocacy Committee and let us work out any problems.
