geocachers! high tech treasure hunt
Hey Forum--
I just recently got into geocaching and found it is a great way to spend time outdoors while getting some exercise, travel, and reward! Is anyone else into this? For those who don't know.. it's a global scavenger hunt that uses gps technology to locate items hidden by other participants. I'm currently getting involved with this geocache hunt put on by David Garrett, a favorite musician of mine... here's the link to his FB account if anyone is interest, the geocaching is under the contest tab... facebook.com/davidgarrettofficial
If anyone else has done some cool caches that take you to far off lands let me know! I'm interested to hear about it.

I just got into Geocatching. LOVE IT!!! So much fun. I want to get a GPS. Right now I'm just been using the Geocatch app on my phone and it gets a bit spotty. I've only found two geocatches so far, but Friday is my birthday and I plan on dragging my boyfriend out for a day of Geocatching! yay! 
Tpunks start doing it! It's tons of fun and brings you to new parks, trails and neighborhoods that you wouldn't have known even existed!

I just looked this up a couple of days ago, looks like a tonne of fun!! I was surprised to see there are a few caches in my teeny tiny home town! Definately need to give this one a go, just need to learn how to use the gps on my phone!
