+greenloopjohndeere Posted December 30, 2018 Share Posted December 30, 2018 I am new to the site and geocaching so I am not sure where to start. What I want to do is find a geocache that has more information to follow with a compass. For example, after finding the cache it says go 240 degrees for 10 paces and then turn to 90 degrees and maintain until.... Is there anything like that in Ga? Quote Link to comment

Because the cache is not at the posted coordinates these caches has been published as mystery caches. You may find some if you focus on those blue question marks on the map. Quote Link to comment

All geocaches must have some GPS usage to be listed here. The cache is the final. Where would you head to afterwards by compass ? Parking , where you started from ? You could have similar compass usage heading to a geocache by going after some multi caches, and many letterbox hybrids. Other cache types are here. Curious, did you start with a basic explanation of the hobby in Geocaching 101 yet ? 1 Quote Link to comment
