A geocacher is someone who participates in the outdoor game of geocaching, which involves using GPS coordinates to find hidden containers, or "geocaches," in various locations around the world.
To become a geocacher, you simply need to create a free account on a geocaching website, such as Geocaching.com, and download a geocaching app on your smartphone. This will allow you to start searching for geocaches near you.
When geocaching, it is important to bring a GPS-enabled device, such as a smartphone, as well as a pen or pencil to sign the logbook in the geocache. It is also recommended to bring water, snacks, and any other necessary items for your outdoor adventure.
Yes, there are rules and guidelines to follow when geocaching. These include respecting the environment, following local laws and regulations, and always replacing the geocache exactly as you found it. You can find a full list of guidelines on the geocaching website.
You can geocache alone or with a group, it is completely up to you. Some geocachers prefer to go solo, while others enjoy the social aspect of geocaching with a group. Just make sure to always let someone know where you are going and when you plan to return.
