Geocaching

GPS


Geocaching is an outdoor activity using GPS devices to find a container called a "cache" or "geocache" anywhere in the world. By logging on the the website http://www.geocaching.com/ you will be able to disover all the information neeeded in order to find a specific "cache". During this unit everything I've learned was all so new to me. I learned how to work a GPS very well and about the coordinates and basically everything you need to know about a GPS device. I now know how to find geocaches and actually how to hide them in order for other people to find them. I found this unit very interesting, this information will definitley come in handy some day. During our team's final Geocache hunt we only happened to find one but we were very close to finding a second one. This was an exciting unit! :)


This is an example of the Geocache our team found !
