Got summer? Got good weather? Want some outdoor fun to energize your life, bring down the stress and help you connect with friends and family? Go Geocaching -- a new activity that puts together nature, gadgets, mental stimulation, exercise, community and much more.
To put it in simple terms, geocaching is a high-tech treasure hunting game. Yes, treasure hunting! Small treasure hunting... It is played all around the world and all you need is your passion for the outdoors, an internet connection and a GPS device. (It doesn't have to be a costly one. Even the one you might already have in your cell phone will most likely do.)
How it works? Go to www.geocaching.com, type the zip code of the area you want to explore, find the coordinates of a hidden treasure, enter in your GPS device and go for the hunt.
All the etiquette and tips are on the site for you to get started. A great activity to take you out there, connect with nature, make new friends, learn more about old friends. And who knows, more than a small cache you may be able to find your own personal treasure that is waiting for you out there...
