Geocaching
Geocaching is a sport using a GPSr to find caches hidden in specific locations. There are caches all over the world. For more information go to
www.geoaching.com.
All my caching related posts are available in the "
Misadventures in Geocaching" category. I also tend to
Tweet when I'm Geocaching.
The statistics below are the latest stats from the Cachestats HTML Export function. This is a useful tool that uses the MyFinds GPX File (a premium member benefit on Geocaching.com). More information about how I get this to display "nicely" is
available in this blog post.
