Find the geocache

“Geocaches come in all shapes and sizes and are intentionally hidden well, so they may be difficult to find.

I'm here to help train your geosenses so you're ready for anything out in the field."

Select the spot on the image where you think the geocache is hidden!

Did you find all geocaches?

“With more than 3 million caches out there, we won’t be able to fully prepare you for every possible hide but we hope you have a better idea of what you are seeking and where it might be hidden.

Are you ready to pick which cache to find?”

Pick your first cache to find

Follow the prompts below to help you determine what cache you want to find!

“Make your first outing a success and pick a cache that is:

Easy (difficulty 1 or 1.5)
Accessible (terrain 1 or 1.5)
Size small to large
Has been recently found”

You learned all the geocaching basics. Complete module 1 by taking the quiz.
