Geocaching 101

It’s been a while since I placed the image on the right on my website and so I thought it was well past time to explain a bit about it.
As the text says, the image displays my statistics for Geocaching.
When I’m trying to explain what Geocaching is to the uninformed, I describe the hobby as a year-round world-wide easter egg hunt. It could also be described as using multi-million dollar technology to locate Tupperware in the woods. The game only requires a GPS receiver device and a bit of ingenuity and insanity. It is enjoyed by several million people and has grown from one single cache placed in the year 2000 (when the GPS satellites went live) to over 1.2 million today pretty much only by word of mouth.
