Are you just getting started in the activity of Geocaching? Perhaps you've just heard about Geocaching and have decided to do some research before getting involved. You are probably like most of us when we first heard about Geocaching, we thought what a strange thing to do look for little containers of stuff. I mean really, how many of these Cache things could possibly be out there anyway, the quick answer is over 1.4million according to Geocaching.com the Official Global GPS Cache Hunt site. Another comment by the non-initiated is, "It can't be very popular because I have never heard of Geocaching".
Geocaching is probably one of the worlds biggest secrets, even though nobody is trying to keep the secret. At the time of the writing of this post Geocaching.com reports have over 5 Million registered Geocachers worldwide, that's a lot of people busy at a secret activity.
Can you just imagine how many caches that many people could log as found each month? I will again use numbers from Geocaching.com; for example in the last 30 days 5,578,529 have been logged. I'm sure you are with me, when I say that it's amazing that 1.4 million people hunting around neighborhood parks, wilderness areas and even in the centers of some of our biggest cities go unnoticed.
If you have already found your first cache, then welcome to your new obsession! If you just doing you initial research on the subject of Geocaching then here are some links explaining Geocaching.
I look forward to seeing you out caching soon.
Happy Caching
