A GPS can be purchased at most stores geared towards the outdoors such as camping or fishing or a store that specializes in electronics. They need not be expensive although the price range can go quite high. Be certain the GPS is not the type designed to help navigate on city streets. This type of GPS will not work well under a canopy of trees in the deep woods.
There are unlimited possibilities for a place to hide a geocache and one might be a favourite camping spot or perhaps a wonderful viewpoint. Consider the accessibility. It should not be too close to very busy roads or trails. Slightly off a trail is a good idea since the environment needs to be preserved but it will not be visible to people walking by. Do not place a geocache in a historical site.
A GPS is a computer that receives signals broadcast from GPS satellites. It needs to read signals from at least three satellites at a time to calculate its general location. The more satellite signals the GPS can read [link widoczny dla zalogowanych], the more accurate the position.

Geocaching Involves Treasure Hunting
Where to Purchase a GPS
This is an excellent outdoor activity for the entire family. Once the general vicinity of the geocache is found, the children will be anxious to take part in hunting for the hidden treasure. Pack a picnic lunch and make a day of this high tech adventure since often more than one geocache is hidden in a park or along a hiking trail. Check before deciding on the destination whether it is a fairly strenuous hike or an easy stroll. This is especially important with very young children since climbing a mountain can take much energy without having a youngster hitching
This sounds deceptively simple. But remember, it is one thing to know a location on a map but another to try to arrive at that location. There will be times that it is not possible to just hike straight in the direction that the GPS points because there might very well be natural obstacles in the way. It may be necessary to locate the best route to a hidden geocache with a downed tree or perhaps a river blocking the way.
Some ideas for a geocache would be an inexpensive compass, a small hand-held game, novelty pencils or perhaps a yo-yo. The local dollar store can provide a person with plenty of ideas. An interesting inclusion might be a disposable camera with a note asking the seekers to take a picture of themselves before returning the camera to the geocache. Do not include food items of any kind. Animals can smell far better than a human and the likelihood of the geocache being destroyed by a wild animal is high. Explosives, ammunition, knives [link widoczny dla zalogowanych], drugs and alcohol should not be placed in a geocache. Always respect the local laws. Do not forget to mark a geocache with the words "Official Geocache" in case someone comes across it by mistake.
A geocache is a small water-proof plastic container filled with items that a person may take with them provided they leave an item of their own in exchange. Also [link widoczny dla zalogowanych], a notebook and pencil will be included to record the date the geocache was found and possibly a list of what has been exchanged.
There are a reported 842,869 active geocaches around the world and some of these geocaches are local.
High Tech Hide and Seek
A geocaching website will show all the available hidden geocaches in a specific area. The user types in the postal or zip code, and the website shows the locations' latitude and longitude. The accuracy of the GPS will be within approximately six to twenty feet of the hidden geocache. Often a clue is included and needed to pinpoint the exact location of the hidden geocache.
