We set out our first cache this weekend aqnd also learned a very valuable lesson, don’t depend on a smarthphone GPS to establish the coordinates. Luckily the person who did the first find let us know that we were off by about 45 feet, so I quickly ran back this morning with my GPS and rechecked the coordinates. All should be good to go.
The name of our first cache is Ghost of Picnics Past.
Congrats on your first hide! I just did my first hide a week ago and I am now finding myself out hiking around wilderness areas after work snapping photo after photo of potential hiding spots 😀
I guess there are much worse things to be addicted to, right?
Way to go on your first hide. Careful, this caching bug is terminal.
Following the signals from space.
congrats on the first hide. And 45 ft off using a smartphone isn’t really all that bad. Most handheld GPS units get somewhere around 20-30 ft accuracy.
Depending on hints and beacons, it can ease the inaccuracy if the possibile locations are fewer.Disclaimer : Always answering to a higher power.

Absolutely agree with that. It really gets into your blood this geocaching. We have now hid our second cache earlier this summer.
I just placed my first cache 8 days ago. Its been so much fun! Yea, check it out if your in the area.
I agree its addicting though I don’t take pictures I set way points in my hand held. There’s a alot of empty area on my citys cache map I cant wait to fill them up XDthis is a link to my first cache
