Welcome to the latest geocaching tool that we have added to our arsenal…Watson the geodog!
Dogs can be great as helpful geocaching tools because:
They have great smell to sniff out the box underneath a rock
They have great hearing to alert you when a muggle is coming around the corner
They are man’s best friend so you can [...]
I love geocaching and one thing for me is about the numbers! Yes, I admit it, it’s nice to see a BIG number when you log in and see how many you have found, and to compare yourself to others. But it’s also not just about the Numbers.
So how can you find what your geocaching statistics are? [...]

One of the great things I love about geocaching is that there is a central website that is FREE (yes, we like free) and where you can see the adventures of other geocachers. It’s almost like a geocaching tool that can be used. Geocachers can post photos, profiles, stories about who they are and what [...]
We are getting close to 1,000 geocaches! This sounds like a lot until you meet other geocachers and you see how many are over 1,000 and then 5,000 and with the top San Diego geocachers Kwvers at 12,000! Amazing!

Here is the photo collage from a [...]

My life has got pretty crazy busy lately – so making time to geocache is not as easy as it used to be. So instead of me taking the time to create query, download a geocache file and download to my Garmin unit…I use my iPhone instead.
I pull out my phone, load up the application, [...]

In the past few weeks I’ve used several devices to find geocaches and thought I’d provide my review on them:
Summary
Garmin Colorado 400t Unit the foundational tool for geocachers with great GPS accuracy, hide information, and fantastic features like “turn by turn driving directions to your next geocache”, but requires uploading queries and downloading finds [...]

I’ve recently moved from Northern California to Southern California. I’ve got to get used to all sorts of new things, like my local shopping areas, places to eat out, and of course…places to geocache!
The best way for me to get a view of geocaches in an area – and I use this for any trips [...]

ooh, just saw this ranking from a geocacher and thought wow. It was for a California geocaching couple called J&J who were like in the ranked #26 in the world!!!! WOW! We were following them on a trail today in the geocache logs – so what an honor.
So, I liked the look of the site [...]
