Author Topic: Geocaching  (Read 531 times)

Geocaching is an outdoor sporting activity in which the participants use a Global Positioning System (GPS) receiver or other navigational techniques to hide and seek containers, called "geocaches" or "caches", anywhere in the world. A typical cache is a small waterproof container containing a logbook where the geocacher enters the date they found it. Larger containers such as plastic storage containers (tupperware or similar) or ammo boxes can also contain items for trading, usually toys or trinkets of little value. Geocaching is often described as a "game of high-tech hide and seek," sharing many aspects with benchmarking, trigpointing, orienteering, treasure-hunting, letterboxing, and waymarking.

It's pretty cool, I find it to be kind of like community treasure hunting. I'm gonna start easy once it gets warm out then spend some time in Manhattan doing it once i think I've gotten good enough

You can't find food in the containers

My dad's done this, but while off-roading with his friends and over the CB radio ( lulold ) and one driver gives some clues as to their whereabouts, and the others find them. It sounds like alot of fun.

My mom used to do this, but theres only so many caches or whatever in this area.

I've done this before, it was fun :D Annoying when kids steal the containers, though -_-

I actually managed to find one :D



forget you for doing this post before me
I was gonna make a megathread goddamn

I did this before, it had a poker chip in it and a peice of paper.
