hunk of woods is like any other. You should have TWO cache-circles set up, so that if one area is ruined (at least temporarily) by disease, fallout, fire, drought, flood, enemies, etc, you can just move over to they other place. How far apart they are is up to you. I'd suggest more than 30 miles, but less than 100 miles.

Pop quiz hotshot.

You arrive at your first cache to find that it's been swallowed by a sinkhole, you trek the 50 miles to your second cache only to discover that a fire fighting crew has bulldozed it away when they were cutting a firebreak to stop some fire that a lunatic started by dropping flares from a plane.

What do you do now?
