What is Geo-Caching?
Geocaching is an entertaining adventure game for gps users. Participating in a cache hunt is a good way to take advantage of the wonderful features and capability of a gps unit. The basic idea is to have individuals and organizations set up caches all over the world and share the locations of these caches on the internet. GPS users can then use the location coordinates to find the caches. Once found, a cache may provide the visitor with a wide variety of rewards. All the visitor is asked to do is if they get something they should try to leave something for the cache. This is a unique way to see the little tucked away treasures of your local landscape. Many of these (Treasures) are hidden on public land and some areas may be host to several geo-caches. Go to: http://www.geocaching.com for more details.
