Geocachers on BYC! Muggles welcome

[cinnamoncockatiel]

I used to geocache quite a bit in college. I mostly did the ones that involved hiking in the woods. I'd like to get back into it as my kids get older. I think it'd be a fun thing to do as a family.

It is lots of fun geocaching in teams!

This is very exciting. There are a couple others that say 'micro' - how do the sizes work?

I put swag in any geocache that my swag can fit in. A few caches have lots of swag and the cache is mean´t to have swag. Some you can fit swag in but it is best not. I have found a micro that could fit swag. Regulars and large are for swag.

So bring swag just in case, but don't leave it if it's not really established for that cache?

Yes. And if you want to take a swag, leave a swag of equal or greater value.

SWAG is Stuff We All Get!

Geocaching was the first to say muggles! No, not actually. In the Harry Potter series muggles are non wizards. In geocaching muggles {geomuggles} are non geocachers who are unaware of geocaching. A geocache that is dismantled or tampered with is a muggled geocache.

That makes sense!!

Be suspicious of muggles.
They are interested in why you are looking under a bridge over a stream for something and then you crawl out with a bone shaped container.
