gstv_geocaching_logoHave a GPS? Looking for a geocaching site? Then check out this site. Geocaching.com was launched on 2000 and currently has members worldwide and hundreds of thousands of caches available.

But first, what is geocaching? Geocaching is an outdoor treasure-hunting game in which participants use a Global Positioning System (GPS) receiver or other navigational techniques to hide and seek containers (called “geocaches” or “caches”) anywhere in the world. A typical cache is a small waterproof container containing a logbook and “treasure,” usually toys or trinkets of little value.

Caches are published by regional cache reviewers, and the site stresses family-oriented caching. The site offers a basic, free, membership which allows you to see coordinates for most caches in its database, and a premium, paid-subscription account which offers additional features and a few more cache sites.

I have been geocaching since 2005 and its my favorite hobby for days when i have nothing to do and need to get out. Now if you are the type that likes to get out and take a small adventure around your neighborhood then this is one site that can point you in the right direction.
