GeoCaching Down in Loa
GeoCaching… can there possibly be a more fun use of one’s GPS? Well short of being able to find your hotel when out of state, discovering a great Tia restaurant, or just making the right turn when trying to find GameBoard Revelotions. GeoCaching, if you don’t already know, is when one puts in GPS coordinates into one’s GPS and then hunts down small little containers. Why bother? For the thrill of finding such a thing (as GPS’s only really get you about 5-10 feet within the range) Signing a log, checking off another find, reaching that illustrious goal of 5000 caches found.
So we went down to Loa for the 4th of July and got a couple of GeoCaches in as well, and let me state that finding a cache in the wilderness is about 300 times easier then those urban caches, especially urban caches involving sticky pokey evergreen/spruce’s ahh how I hate those. We left Friday morning at the crack of 10.
