Geocachers on BYC! Muggles welcome

I actually only went to look for two and couldn't find either.

I'm pretty sure I uninstalled the app. If not I've forgotten I had it.

The app isn't where the fun ones are, it only lists the ones that are below a certain difficulty and terrain.

It is hard the first few. You learn each find. I recommend reading a few articles or watching videos.

Haha!

Yes.

Didnt bother reading through, but I’ve got a ton of questions about it! I’ve always wanted to do it, but mostly I don’t know where I would look for a place near me that does it.

@black_cat how is Geocaching? More finds?


@Kiki do you still think Geocaching is weird?

It's been great! We had to stop for a while because of heavy snow cover on the ground (I'm sure as heck not finding a white tupperware in the snow) but I'm up to 20 or 22 finds, I think. I have spring break for the next two weeks (starts saturday), so plenty of time for caching in the lovely spring weather!
I've found that I've enjoyed micros and nanos much more than regulars- even though you can't put swag in them, I think that the finding is more fun when they're smaller. It's a shame that there aren't trackables that can fit in bison tubes, though (possibly a good thing because they'd get lost really easily) I love trackables. I had two for a while, and dropped them both in a cache near an airport.

Everywhere does it, I guarantee! https://www.geocaching.com/play/search
Go there and search for your city/state on the map.

Where is this secret nerd place you're talking about that list better ones?

I'm afraid my area is too ghetto...meaning they steal all the things I'm supposed to be looking for.

Website! Follow the link that I gave Corb and log in to your account. I really enjoy the regular size ones that are generally in parks and wooded trails and stuff- you get to go on a fun adventure (dogs will love it!) and they're generally easier to spot because they're larger and in less trafficked areas.
