Our first geocaching expedition (photos)

Wednesday 11 Jan 2012 was a historic day!  SatNav ramblers found 2 out of 3 geocaches on their first geocaching expedition ever.








Note
The locations of these were downloaded from www.geocaching.com. Geocaching is a real-world, outdoor treasure hunting game using hand held satnavs or GPS-enabled devices. Participants navigate to a specific set of GPS OS coordinates and then attempt to find the geocache (container) hidden at that location. In its simplest form, a cache always contains a logbook or logsheet for you to log your find. Larger caches may contain a logbook and any number of items. These items turn the adventure into a true treasure hunt. You never know what the cache owner or visitors to the cache may have left. Geocachers take something and leave something of equal or greater value in return. A good game for grand children to enjoy.
