Intro to Geocaching

The word Geocaching refers to GEO for geography,
and CACHING, in this instance refers to a hiding place for concealing and preserving a small container. Geocaching is a real-world, outdoor treasure hunting game using GPS -enabled devices. Participants navigate to a specific
set of GPS coordinates and then attempt to find the geocache (container) hidden at that location. Come out and join the geocaching fun!
