I've never been involved in this personally, but would like to. I have relatives in Michigan who say it's a blast. Thanks for the article. It's good to see something new that doesn't have anything to do with immigration.

Chase

Actually, geocaching has quite a bit to do with immigration. All of the illegal immigrants are finding all the caches leaving very few to find for hard searching American citizens.

I propose geocachers who are caught breaking the law be required to provide prove their citizenship. If they are not us citizens, their gps units will be turned over to federal agents.

We've stumbled onto a couple of caches by accident. We always look at them, sign our names with the "accidental" notation and put them back in exactly the same spot.

Fascinating stuff. We're going to have to join up someday.

We've done this as a family for about 4 years now. It is really frustrating to not find one that is well hidden. Think of finding a small object in a huge pine tree. Looking for hours can turn up no results.

Our 5 and 7 year olds love to go treasure hunting and exchange object for object. If we are on vacation it is nice to have a gps on my phone and locate them close to where we are vacationing. Good times.

A great way to spend time as a family! I recommend you add some goecache finding during your travels for family vacations. I is a great addition as a new family tradition you can establish. For me, its all about enjoying the outdoors and spending time together as a family.
