1. Download the app on your smart phone and look them up, there is no prize for finding them but it is quite cool knowing that these things are around. You can take an item but the rule is you must leave an item if you do take an item. Inside them you will usually find a logbook with previous finders.I've been considering it, but I never thought I knew anyone I could ask for more practical information:
- what all is involved?
- is there any way to tell if one is active or found?
- do you need any tools?
- will it put me at risk of getting arrested at any point?
Did you find it? Many geocaches already have a pen/pencil inside. Another cool feature with geocaching is trackables (i don't know a great deal about this). Trackable are items (such as bottlecaps or anything) people can register with a code then placed in a geocache. Another Geocacher then takes the trackable then places it into another geocache and logs the location where it has been move too. Apparently many trackables have travelled round the world many times geocache to geocache and eventually came back to their original area years later.Okay, went to the website, registered, downloaded the free version app (I'm guessing the paid version has more tools?) and found 6 caches close to me. Went to the closest one (all are walking distance, so I was running Ingress at the same time, lol), and when I got there...I realized I forgot to bring a pen for the physical log book, lol.
Did you enjoy it?>I go into this thread
>"What the fuck is Geocaching?"
>Turns out a geocahing point is about 20 meters down the street I'm living in. And I've run past it like at least 500 times. (It was hidden inside a little "house" of sorts that someone placed on a tree stump.)
Sounds like you had a ghost geocache which is basically just find a location. Try search for the green geocaches.Dunno what you call enjoy. I didn't really have to search for it because I could look out of the window to see what they mean.
Is it actually on your property? Or on the border of your property. You can actually contact the person who placed it there and explain that it is on private property, if it's an issue to you. If they don't remove it report it to geocache and remove it yourself.I had a couple of cousins that told me about this a few years back. Never really bothered with it but thought I would give it a try. I was surprised that there was one nestled in a group of trees in my OWN backyard in the house we had just moved into the last couple of weeks. What's the procedure for this one exactly? Seeing as how it's not legal being on private property.
I doubt it's in a manhole cover, as it's generally a child friendly game, I can guarantee that it's probably in a safe place, there is a rating of terrain and difficulty with 5 being the highest. Just bare in mind that some of these are very well hidden people go to great lengths to hide geocaches, I have found them in fake rocks and even in real rocks with holes drilled in them. Some magnetic Geocaches even have been known to be in fake bolts:no chill, I was unable to find it. I looked at the hint (think magnetically) and that's when I realized I forgot the pen.
In that location, there are five objects that "Think magnetically" could refer to, but I'm hoping it's not in one of the, as a manhole cover in the middle of the street with a blind corner is rather dangerous.
