Geocaching as fun as it sounds?
I just stumbled upon geocaching. It looks like quite a few people take up this hobby. Im wondering, is this adult version of electronic hide and seek as fun as it sounds?

there are several good/inexpensive GPS units on the market now. Any of these will serve you well for geocaching.
You may even find a used one from someone who is looking to "upgrade".
Pick a nearby traditional cache and give it a go !

As far as I know, it looks like this one is the best. I found a lot of them here around kzoo, and also good forums. http://www.geocaching.com/

i've looked at that site before. from what i have seen that is the best too, but i have limited knowledge.
another question to go along with the previous one is, how do i download the waypoints for the caches on that site to my software or gps?
