I intended to camp last night in Upper Souix Agency State Park. Even though I found other accommodations, I stopped by this park this morning. I expected to have a look at the historic structures and snap a picture at the scenic overlook and move along. Then, I saw a brochure for a geocaching challenge. I accepted. It got me out on the trail, which I really appreciated while hiking through the prairie. I found all 9 caches & earned my right to a coin. In all, it took a little more the 2 hours.
I just learned about geocaching last month. Sounds like it is really wide-spread. Glad you were successful.
ReplyDeleteGeographically, they are all over the place. I don't know how many people actively participate. This is the first time I've done it in a long time. I have much better luck at coordinated sites than those placed by individuals. My mom & I once went on a hunt in Fernwood, where they placed the caches in real fun, clever places.
