Geocaching Garmin Style

[Pauche]

Basically, geocaching is a high-tech version of treasure hunting. Geocachers seek out hidden treasures utilizing GPS coordinates posted on the Internet by those hiding the cache. Using a Garmin® GPS unit, they then trek out into the backwoods or urban jungles to find the hiding spot of the cache. Once found, a cache may provide the visitor with a wide variety of rewards. If the visitor takes something out of the cache, they are asked to leave something in return. For some, the biggest reward is the thrill of the search and the discovery of a place that they have never been.

btw, just a little correction on the topic.

it's just geocaching. it doesn't really matter which gpsr you are using, whether it's by garmin, magellan, tomtom or any of the newer brands coming up.

as long as it allows you to key in the waypoints, it can do.
