    Boy, has geocaching changed! Microcaches everywhere!

    in General geocaching topics

    Posted

    not that this has anything to do with the price of rice in china, but I do enjoy a good park and grab once in a while, mostly because I'm so addicted to geocaching that I need to do it even when I'm on my trip to wal-mart, and I only have a couple of mins to squish in a chache.

    The beautiful hike ones are my fav, but park and grabs satiate the urge untill the weekend

     

    This is my reasoning as well... I don't always have the time for an awesome hike (or even a nice walk in the park), especially during the school year. If I get out of class at 7 or 8 pm and feel like grabbing a few caches, I'll hit some micros that I know are in parking lots or on guardrails. The thrill of the hunt and find is still there for me with micros.

     

    ...But then again... I've only been caching for a few months. Who knows how I'll feel about them in the future... :)

    applications and the droid phone for geo caching

    in How do I...?

    I'm pretty new to caching, and I wasn't sure yet whether I wanted to fork over the cash for a handheld, so I downloaded Geobeagle on my Droid. It works fairly well, and the closest it's gotten me to GZ so far has been within 8 feet. The only issue that I have with the app, occurs when you are looking at the "radar" screen; the directional arrow may be pointing directly behind you, but the number of feet remaining until you reach GZ is still going down while you're walking forward. Because of this, I ignore the arrow most of the time, and just watch the numbers. It hasn't prevented me from making a find yet.
