¿can you explain "boy scout in the worst possible way?"

 

[meowzer]

Eeeeasy people....I'm a Scout

Yes, I have taken my Scouts geocaching before. Sometimes it's fun, if you actually find the thing. Once we were hiking up a big mountain, stopped to take a break about 3/4 up, and found one under a log by accident. It was actually quite full...money, McDonald's toys, all kinds of gadgets.

 

[meowzer]

Who puts these things there for you to find them???

 

[alix2.0]

other geocachers. ive never hid any, but i think it would be fun to. the ones we found had hundreds of names in their logs.

 

[t316]

Anyone can put them out there. You just have to make it weather proof, record the exact location (gps) and put the info. up on one of the many geocaching sites so that others can go look for it. The one's I have been involved with are usally rated (easy, moderate, difficult, etc.). The difficult one's can turn out to be something the size of a film cannister hidden in the jungle...so it's "difficult" to find.

 

[meowzer]

LOL....I'M AMAZED...there are actually some near me...there is never anything near me...

My family LOVES geocaching. It is actually a great way to spend time with your kids out in nature and away from iCarly among others

My daughter is 7 and we have been going since she was 4. She now has her own GPS and can find with the best of 'em.
