Come join us for a Geocaching event and picnic in west Fort Collins!!
What is Geocaching?
Geocaching is modern day high tech "treasure" hunting!
It is an outdoor recreational activity using a GPS or a smartphone APP to find (and hide) containers, called "geocaches" or "caches". The caches are hidden at specific locations recorded on the website www.geocaching.com. When someone finds a cache they can log their find on the website.
