How to try geocaching
"I signed up for a free account at Geocaching.com."
How I did it: I signed up at Geocaching.com, and familiarized myself with the "rules of the game" - I realized that compromising a cache by being overly conspicuous or relocating it wouldn't be appreciated much by other geocachers. I also learned that I could hide some caches myself someday!
I went searching on my own for the first one, and brought along some friends for my second and third find. Each find was more and more exciting. :)
I went on a business trip this week, and am going on vacation next week - and love geocaching, no matter where I am!
Lessons & tips:
- Sign up at Geocaching.com.
- Make sure to peruse their Guide.
- Don't overdo it - pick one or two that are easy.
- If you don't find the cache you're looking for, take a step back, and give the area one more thorough look. But don't frustrate yourself - it's okay to move on, and come back to it another day.
- Take some friends. :) Wear pirate hats!
