It is very fun. I tell my wife it is like having sex in public and nobody noticing. I was astonished when I first learned of the sport/hobby; all this going on and we didn't even know it?

I have devised some rather clever hides including:

1) Suspend a microcache in storm drains on a fishing line.
2) Hanging caches in trees with a retrieving line about 6.5 feet off the ground. EVERYONE looks for the cache on the ground.
3) Take a piece of limb that has fallen, cut it in half, hollow out the center and hide a cache in the hollow. You can use hinges and a latch to hold it shut.
4) Knot holes in trees are superb spots.

It really is fun. I try to hide mine right out in the open, but where the "muggles" as we call them would never look.

I've sent a link about it to my dad too, he and his lady friend might get into this as well.

This GPS microcaching, if that is what it is, sound suspiciously like the exchanging of mathoms!

But what better use to put the greatest navigational instrument ever conceived by man :-D
