and very strict precautions must be adhered to.
One being the depth, kept below freeze table.
Extra desiccant [silica gel, kitty litter, basement dry, etc.]
is a must.
Best results also if you are able to check on it occasionally.
Alas, the best storage environment would be airtight, dry, cool,
and temperature controlled.

Good point I plan on building a partial underground "storm shelter" not bury anything. And camo the thing. Mormons did that sort of thing in Missouri when Gov Boggs put death sentence on any Mormon "within the boundries of Missouri" back before the civil war.
