Geocaching is a worldwide outdoor treasure hunting game that uses the Internet and a GPS (global positioning system). People all over the world can hide a cache which is a waterproof container that includes a logbook and some sort of treasure. The co-ordinates of this are then put on the Internet for people to download to their GPS and go hunting for it. When someone finds the cache they have to leave a note in the logbook and they can also swap something they have for something they may want from the treasure.
