Are there any DU geocachers out there? |
|
Anyone get a GPS receiver for Christmas? Or asked for one and didn't get it? :)

6. I don't geocache, but I am a letterboxer. Similar thing, except |
|
you use clues from the letterboxingNorthAmerica site to find boxes and stamp your stamp in logbooks.
I did run into a small geocache one time when I was planting a letterbox! It was very exciting. The hobbies can easily overlap.

7. letter boxing came way before geocaching if I'm not mistaken |
|
I don't know the history but just made a note to check it out. Thanks.

8. I've heard of letterboxing, but didn't quite understand how it goes. |
|
Do you have to have your own signature stamp? Do you also use a GPS receiver to find a letterbox?
