Geocaching - Travel Channel Cash and Treasures What is geocaching?

According to Geocaching.com, "Geocaching is an entertaining adventure game for gps users. Participating in a cache hunt is a good way to take advantage of the wonderful features and capability of a global positioning system, or gps unit. The basic idea is to have individuals and organizationsset up caches all over the world and share the locations of these caches on the internet. GPS users can then use the location coordinates to find the caches. Once found, a cache may provide the visitor with a wide variety of rewards. All the visitor is asked to do is if they get something they should try to leave something for the cache."
