Best Cache Storage

[NorthernRaider]

Remember sods law, if it can soak up moisture, rust or rot it will within 5 minutes of you putting it away, never assume a water proof container is water proof, treat it as water resistant, double bag in ziplock bags anything perishable, dont assume Laminating docs protects them fully it doesnt I lost 70 bloody maps and a lot of money with that mistake. A screw top with o ring seal will stop rain water and moisture BUT buried if water builds up onto the seal it WILL get through, so silicone grease the seal, silicone sealant the cap when its tight. Water also is a git for getting passed solvent welded joints so solvent weld, silicone seal and tape cache tubes.

Bag everything, erven the already bagged kit into a big bag before you put it into your cache tube or drum.

You dont always have to bury caches either, sometime lateral thinking is better. Example at my last house and since adopted by a few mates we simply got a full length of drain vent pipe of the time you see outside every house to let sewer fumes escape. We then filled the tube full of gear in sealed bags, stood it against the house and fastened it to the wall the same way as your drain pipes from the gutter are. It looked just like another downpipe.,
