Then you punch in where you'll be looking for caches. Yesterday was a perfect fall day so a friend and I decided to check out caches in New Hope PA. From the list you look over the list of caches and pick the right difficulty and terrain level for your group. I tend to go for the easy finds and not too much climbing.
From there you punch in the coordinates into a GPS enabled device. I have an old garmin e-Map that I use for this. The GPS gets you to within 20 feet or so of the cache coordinates.
Now you have to use your eyes to look around and find the cache.
Once you find it, you get to write in the log book and trade any toys or knick knacks that are in the cache.
You then return the cache to its proper hiding place
Repeat.
Easy and fun! On the way home, we saw some hot air balloons for an added bonus. I love happy accidents!
