hi travelbug,
yes it is a very good geocahing site.. you can input your location and start geocaching near your location.. start with easy caches, usually with 1/1 to 2/2 difficulty..
happy geocaching..

Default Geocaching Project

Hi guys,

anyone wanna help me set up a couple of geocache's? Since our company is running the tour in Corregidor, Im thinking of putting a couple of them in areas where tourists go near to.

I think the rule is to have
a. a water-tight container and (lock and lock maybe?)
b. loot to put in the container. I'm thinking of 2 loots, the first is the geo-cacher's replaceable loot, and the other loot- a plastic chip that entitles you to another prize (but i have to discuss this pa).
c. there can only be 1 prize to be claimed for each container/day. We'll put in a pen and a cardboard for a geocacher's log - but the replaceable ones can be swapped anytime.

the reason for putting in a couple of it is that we can hand different geocache sets on different days.

I'm still not good at setting this up. I hope you guys can help me.

Tantin
