That’s the best part of this sport is that you can do it with different groups and it means something different to everyone.

My kids and I love the park and cemetery hides.
My wife and I love the high favorites and beautiful, new places.
My friends and I love the long hikes through snow and prairies.
I personally love the puzzle hides.

After doing a “speed caching” run I can appreciate it like I respect those who run marathons or long triathlons. Not that I want to do any of those myself. I also worry about power trails “littering” the side of roadways.

You have to be careful too. My wife almost got swiped on the side of the road, so be aware of inattentive drivers. Safety comes before stealth. Always take a friend with you and I always put my hazard lights on.

On the contrary, some of my favorite finds and days of geocaching are the ones which take me off the beaten path for an hour or so in a place I have never visited before (ie. Room to Roam series). I think that is the essence of geocaching.

Yesterday I was just interested in seeing how far we could push ourselves.
I don’t really have a desire to do it again.
