Geocaching is a "hide-n-seek" treasure hunt game in which the players use a Global Positioning System (GPS) receiver to hide and seek containers ("geocache" or "cache") anywhere in the world.
A geocacher will hide a geocache, a waterproof container, that contains a log book (with pen or pencil) and some sort of treasures, then note the cache's coordinates.
These coordinates, and some other details of the location, are posted on a website like www.geocaching.com. Other geocachers download the coordinates from the website and look for the cache using their GPS handheld receivers. If you find a cache, you record your find in the logbook and online. You are then free to take an object from the cache in exchange for leaving something of similar or higher value, so there is treasure for the next person to find.
