First, I've to admit, that I'm an absolute beginner. So sorry, if I do something wrong.
Since my son (10) brought me to that site, I really enjoy hunting for caches with him, as this fun forces my son out of the house and into the nature.
I'm aware, that one idea behind GeoCaching is promoting and helping to sell GPS-devices ;-).
As we don't possess such a device, I'd like to suggest two further disciplines. First the "old-fashioned" unplugged version, using only maps and compass to find the site of the cache. The second one is the type we practice. We're locating the coordinates by Google Maps which should be accurate enough, at least in our humble experience for easy to find caches.
What do you think about that practice? Is it beyond the idea of GC?
Thx
