Geocaching April 19, 2008

Dawn, Dharma, Sam, Amanda and I went to Caledonia today to return something to Jim and Kim. While we were there we thought we would do some Geocaching.

What is Geocaching you might ask? Geocaching (pronounced geo-cashing) is a worldwide game of hiding and seeking treasure. A geocacher can place a geocache in the world, pinpoint its location using GPS technology and then share the geocache's existence and location online. Anyone with a GPS device can then try to locate the geocache.

They are typically a small container hidden with small items for trade. and a log book to sign. There are also traceable items that have a serial number in some of the caches; you can track these online.

We found two traceable items. A Geocoin and a trave bug. Here are the pictures we took of our day. They lead us to some interesting places. Check out the cool old tunnel!
