I agree with Tim here .....I have to drive nearly 90 miles any more just to 
find caches I have not done and it is very very disappointing to not be able to 
log a planned cache. If I can make a reasonable effort and not find it that is 
one thing but to get there and not be able to log it due to the inability to 
retrieve it without being discreet is something esle again. so I straddle this 
issue somewhat .....but I always make a point of covering a cache much better 
than it was found and this is NOT the case with some. I have found my caches 
lying completely in the open ....uncovered....or highly visible when I went to 
check them and this is discouraging as it invites theft and it is especially 
discouraging with an urban cache which gets more traffic than one in the 
country.

When you live 40 miles from the caching area it does become a big deal to
find it!
I'm not going to drive forty miles and not get to log a cache because it's
in a high traffic area!

There may be times when you
will just have to pass on a cache because it is not accessible when you are
hunting. If a cache is urban, there is a pretty high chance that you will
not have traveled miles just for THAT cache! It's not like hiking 5 miles up
hill and not being able to log a cache. You will have other caches you can
find. So I still think it is fair to say that if the cache will be
compromised, and you can't cover up what you are doing, wait.
