I was curious if there is anybody else around who participates in geocaching. It's where people go and hide containers in spots, then post the coordinates online. You then plug those coordinates into your handheld GPS and try to find it, sign the logbook, maybe trade one useless item for another useless item if the container is big enough. Geocaching has been a hobby for me for nearly four years now, and I love going to new places and trying to find caches.

It seems to me that overnights will be an opportune chance to go out and find some new areas with this hobby for an hour or two, and I guess I was just wondering if there was anybody else that does this?
I've heard of this but never partaken in the hobby. I think you've got a great idea though. I know guys hide things in the hub of control yolk on certain planes. Such items can be notes and candy. LOL
