Any Geocachers here?

Hi,

Are there any geocachers here?
For those unfamiliar with it, Geocaching is a high-tech treasure hunting game played throughout the world by adventure seekers equipped with GPS devices. The basic idea is to locate hidden containers, called geocaches, outdoors and then share your experiences online. ( www.geocaching.com ) The great thing about it is that people often hide geocaches in areas that are interesting to visit. They could bring you to a great view, a hidden waterfall, a spot with historical importance, or just a nice trail which you may have never known about. Some are easy to find, and some are so cleverly hidden that you may not realize than an object you have your hand on is even a cache at first. We like it for the above reasons, plus it great for taking our dog, Moxie, to all different places to walk. Or Geocaching name is "team moxiepup". (Moxie was a 10 month old puppy when we started.) So far, we have found 1757 caches and hidden 36.

My kids are. The kids found a cache on accident under a bridge in the park across the street, and that got them started.

It has been a few years but I have found at least 10 or more. Have always wanted to hide one but can't find a cool place where I can get permission.

Been caching since 2002! However, it isn't our life so we're behind you in finds. In fact, just about everyone we've introduced to the sport has passed us in finds! We don't do a lot of micros. The majority of our finds are regular size ammo cans hidden in the woods at the end of a half mile hike.

I have the GPS and the Cache to hide already fixed for a long time but just don't know how or what too do. When they go to talk longetude and and them tudes I know nothing about mapping my hidden cache. I would love too do this.
