Wonder if the real owner of the tree cares? Or the tree itself?
All munzees I have seen in this area are being scanned by people who are
geocachers and long term geocachers at that.
I am not sure I really care either way. If you want to put a Munzee in or
near one of our caches, knock yourself out!

PS: If you want to put a cache near one of our Munzees, just do it!
