Geo Caching!

[Jorgen.]

Now I'm not sure if many or any of you have heard of this but a friend showed me it a few weeks back and it's fun shit.

^ Head over there to check it out.
For those of you who are too lazy I'll sum it up for you.Geo Caching is a mix between hiking and treasure hunting.
What you need:- GPS- Some random trinkets- What ever else you'd want on a hike.
What to do: - Go to the site (http://www.geocaching.com )- Make a FREE account- Search for a cache in your area- Get the co-ordinates for the cache- Go find it!

Heres a video that gives you an idea of what it's all about as well.

If this is a repost or any links/ the video doesn't work, well suck it up.

I found one without a GPS. Fuckin random. It was in an abandoned quarry in a rusted out, burned vw bug. Buried deep in the wheel well.

It's really fun. I started doing it 2 summers a go with some of my friends and I would really recommend a Garmin ExTrex.

ive done it, but its hard to find good ones, most of them are really really easy to find. that underwater one would be cool.

yesterday while on a quick kayak jaunt. some friends and i stopped off on this small island and found one.

its fun!

(we had found the geocache over the summer when it was actually only on a peninsula, now with the water super super high its an island.

It's super popular around here.
3 years ago when I was working on an archaeology site we climbed up this massive hill only to find a geo cache on the top. It was one where you sign your name to the list and the last name before us was in 1994.
It was a very difficult location to get to in the middle of the mojave desert.
