I just saw [Phlogiston@sh.itjust.works]post and that got me curious on geocaching.
I subbed to this to help grow the base but I’m still curious as to what Geocaching is all about?
Is it like Pokémon Go where there are areas with “cache” like in the game but the difference is that this is a real physical thing?
Competitive littering. I kid I kid.
It’s a community treasure hunting game. A person hides something, then posts GPS coordinates and/or clues to lead you there. Often the hidden item is a sealed container so people can leave log books or unique trinkets. Some of the trinkets have serial numbers you can use to see where they’ve traveled.
I haven’t done it in years, but I remember it being a lot of fun. Hunting for caches led me to a bunch of interesting new places that I would never have explored otherwise.
