Flipping through the channels, I stopped on CNN as I saw the word Geocaching on the screen. Lo and behold it was airing a story on geocaching. I only caught the tale end of it, but it was very positive. They showed the reporter going out with a geocacher looking for a cache. Geez, big time meadia for our sport. Cool!

Knowing this network reruns its stories, it might be poosible to catch it again today.

There was a topic on the gc.com forums about this- explains who the cacher was, what caches they hit(mtn-man caches), etc-
good stuff!

You can read it here: http://forums.groundspeak.com/GC/index.php?showtopic=79915

Oh, and within that topic, there is a link to a quicktime version of the piece.

CNN did a nice job. Glad they didn’t show a metal detector and pick axe
