I have actually decided to do the same, after making my 1st find yesterday My Gecko 201 worked great but decided I could do with a better GPS now!

Thanks to everybody for the advice, went out to Message in a bottle yesterday afternoon on the way to Tree in the Middle, GPS worked fine the, because I had to work a little late one problem I had was the light faded very quick so I know I got to the right spot but because the light was so bad gave the hunt up! And then there seemed to be a but of a storm on the way Hopefully I can get off work a little earlier today and get back out there to find my first cache! Once again thanks to everybody for all for the advice!

Thank you, I am going to give The Tree in the Middle a shot!

Going to give it a shot later! I stay in Blairgowrie, Randburg behind Delta park but do not mind driving around johannesburg to much... Thanks for the Speedy reply!!!!

Hi, I have had a GPS for quite a while now, a little Garmin Gecko 201. I have used it for arb things here and there whilst hiking or traveling around but have not used it as much as I would have liked to...Then I watched Top Billing last Thursday and found out about this awesome sport/hobbie as I love the outdoors and now can get some more use out of the GPS! Is this unit "good enough" to go find some caches? Or do you think I need an upgrade? I am going out this afternoon to try and find my 1st cache anyway will let you know how it goes.... Does somebody have a list of Caches in the Johannesburg area? Would like to try and find the caches closet to home 1st... Would also be interested in getting to together sometime with one of the more experienced cachers in the area to go through some basics on geocaching.
