Whatever happened to ammo boxes?

We were out caching today, for the first time in awhile.  Some of the caches were fun.  Some..  not so much.  


Why does everyone think it's a great idea to hide a bison tube in the woods these days?  What happened to hiding containers you wanted people to find?  I'm not opposed to bison tubes, and I prefer my caches to be in the woods rather than on a stop sign..  but a bison tube in the woods is a tricky thing.  It needs a good hint, or extremely precise coordinates.  Here IS a hint - it's hard to get extremely precise  coordinates in a dense patch of woods.    And looking at 50 different sticks to see which one the cache is hidden in, just really isn't that much fun.  It's NOT the same as a creative container. It's been done.  Over done.  Move on to something more unique, or go back to the basics, please.
