A Modern-Day Treasure Hunters

Geocaching is a game played worldwide-even though it only began in 2000! Geo is from the word geography, and caching (pronounced "'cashing") means hiding a container with "treasure" inside. The purpose of geocaching is to use GPS technology to find a hidden cache-some people call it a high-tech treasure-hunting game. Technophiles love it because you need technology. Hikers love it because you may have to walk a long way. And looking for treasure is fun, so it is also great for children .

It isn't difficult to become geocacher. First, buy a small handheld G PS device. Next, search on line for a geocaching website and choose a cache to look for. Some caches are. in beautiful locations, such as river, valleys, mountains, or beaches. For each cache, websites list coordinates-:-n umbers that give an exact . geographical position (for example, 48°5 1 .29 ' N, 02°1 7.40 ' E is the Eiffel Tower in Paris). Input the coordinates for your cache. into your GPS device, and you are ready to go.

Your CPS. device will identify the exact location of your cache. That's the easy part. The hard part comes after you get to the location-. finding the cache! Some caches are hidden under stones, in trees, or even in water. And what will you find in your cache? If you are looking for go1d or diamonds; you will be very disappointed. Most caches contain inexpensive things like books, toys, coins, or DVDs. There is also a logbook and pencil for you to record the date you found the cache and make comments. The real prize is the pleasure of saying "I found it!".

Geocaching etiquette allows you to take whatever you want from cache, but you must replace it with something of the same or higher value. Don't forget to bring some treasure for the next geocacher.
