Many of you may ask, what is Geocaching? I once heard Geocaching described as modern-day treasure hunting where people use multi-billion dollar satellites (or a GPS) to find Tupperware containers hidden out in the forest. You can find caches anywhere throughout the world. These caches that are hidden come in many different shapes and sizes.
In this picture is my dad and I. This is one of the big caches that we found. In the big caches
you can find items that you can trade for with items that are of equal or greater value.
This picture is of my brother-in-law Christopher and I. The caches are as small as the size
of mint containers. In that case you will only be able to find a log in each one.
This is another picture of my dad and I. The caches can even come in containers that are in weird
shapes and sizes. This one for example came in the shape of a duck and was floating on a lake.
To find a cache you need to go to www.geocaching.com where you can download coordinates to caches onto your GPS. After you find the cache, you need to follow these rules/instructions that are found on the Geocaching website:
1. If you take something from the cache, leave something of equal or greater value.
2. Write about your find in the cache logbook.
3. Log your experience at www.geocaching.com.
