geocache

using multi billion dollar military defense satellites to find tupperware in the woods

high tech treasure hunt made possible by extensive military spending and minimal spending on the players part... they build a satellite and launch it in to space, i buy a piece of plastic from walmart and make it a geocache by just hiding it

geocache

Destination point, usually a container with small objects and/or toys, for a GPS based orienteering sport/hobby called "Geocaching" after the web site of the same name. Participants hide containers (or sometimes objects, clues, or virtual objects) and publish GPS coordinates and hints on the Gecaching web site. Others seek the geocache as a form of recreation and may exchange items for those in the geocache, as well as reporting (online) the success or failure of their search.

When we travel to another city, we often will bring a GPS unit and search out a local geocache as a way of becoming more familiar with the area.

geocache

Geocaching (pronounced geo-cashing) is like a high-tech scavenger hunt, made possible by Global Positioning System (GPS) and the Internet. Originally developed by the U.S. Department of Defense for military applications, GPS technology has been free and available since the mid-1980s. Although many people use GPS receivers to aid in navagaition, the systems also have recreational uses, such as recording locations of caves, hiking trails, and favorite fishing spots.

I found my first Geocache yesterday.

geocashing 

A social media game where participants decipher clues in order to locate hidden cash, usually in the form of currency. A riff on geocaching. As made popular by the #hiddencash game which originated in San Franciso, CA in May of 2014.

I am going geocashing for hidden cash around town once the new clues have been tweeted.

geotrasher 

Someone who hunts geocaches down to destroy them and keep any travel bugs or coins inside as trophies.

A geotrasher will spread the remaining contents of the cache around the area then fill the container with some type of perishable food item. Most times the lid is then glued in place to make opening difficult but not impossible.

Logs are sometimes kept as souvenirs or left to rot in the cache container.

We are in the area of the geocache but I think a geotrasher might have gotten to it first because there are little broken plastic toys everywhere.

geocache

Activity or hobby (NOT a sport) popular among dorks, knobs and dweebs. Generally consists of hobbit-like nerds hiding and/or burying little cases that their kin seek out. Other activities popular among this group are dungeons and dragons, hanging out in the basement, and for a morbid few, tragicache.

This powertool I work with won't shut up about his weekend geocache.

geocacher 

The most boring person on Earth who somehow finds it fun to look for a piece of paper amongst wet bushes and dog shit. Will bore anyone as they think the subject is interesting. It isn't.

I was in the pub last night and one of my friends is a GeoCacher and bored me to death all night about it. The boring twat.
