Who's childhood was not allowed to travel on an imaginary map in search of untold riches, buried in a chest deep, deep underground? For some people these games forever remain a pleasant memory, but fans of active recreation and romance realize their fantasies of young age in life - true friends gather and go in search of treasure. A reasonable question arises: where to get the hidden card? The answer is simple: a treasure map, and carefully prepare the participants of the game "geocaching." Geocaching - a search for buried in the ground caches using GPS-navigation. Name of the game comes from the Greek word «geo» and the English «cache», which means "earth" and "Cache." Coordinates homemade treasures hidden in the answers to the puzzles that make up some players and spread the information on the Internet for others. The site dedicated to geocaching, and collected a huge database is constantly updated caches, one can find a comfortable room for him. The treasure can rest peacefully in the city park or housing estate, and in the neighboring region in the middle of the forest. To break out of the four walls of the office and embark on this exciting adventure, enough to have a GPS-navigator and a crew of like-minded. On a treasure hunt can go both on foot and by bicycle, motorcycle or car. A player in a car does not have a bumper somewhere on a country road, in the description indicates the complexity of his capture and time of year, when it is possible to drive the wheels. Caches come in summer, winter or season. There are narrowly focused caches, for example, especially for dzhiperov: in such places can only be reached prepared to travel off-road machine. Usually they are satisfied in the ground fighting, where you can find echoes of war (half-hiding in the swamp tank, a wing of an airplane, a field strewn with craters from shells). Geocaching, too, vary in complexity depending on the gambling and leisure time for hunters. Faster and easier to come from traditional treasures with an indication of the origin and precise location of tips. Taking a step cache more exciting, as in the search can be employed several interesting places or landmarks. Maybe even have to perform some task and put the final coordinates of the scattered towards answering the questions. In the course of going on the date of the memorial slabs of monuments, the number of steps and windows, and sometimes can not do without knowledge of history. Beginners geokeshery can try their hand in the search for virtual caches. To do this, do not even have a navigation system - it will be available in the event that the game will appreciate. And for those who find the real cache, the virtual job will be reckoned as a pleasant bonus. Typically, the virtual part of the cache is located close to the traditional, but finding it can only be carefully looking around around. Virtual caches are laid and in crowded places where there is no possibility to make excavations. Evidence of the passing game will answer to the question that was sent to the creator of the cache. Usually it is questions on care, or erudition. It would seem that it may be difficult to find the treasure, if given its coordinates? But in fact it turns out that the "spread" from the point can reach several tens of steps. Therefore, the creator of the cache leaves a clue for determining the exact location. Although experienced players and without tips can intuitively guess where you want to dig to find the precious container. In the role of the trunk in most cases serve plastic boxes - they will not hurt the contents of the earth, and a packet of silica gel will save from the dampness. Sometimes hiding and protecting of animals - poured into the pit next to a container red pepper. But what treasures will go to geokesheram decide the players themselves. Typically, the creator of the cache keeps a few trinkets (flashlights, pens, pins, discs with photos, toys, etc.), and those who finds them can get yourself something, but instead to put their equal contribution. The container is still visits notebook and pencil to every treasure hunter could be noted. To the following parties have been interesting to find a cache from scratch, after the discovery of his return to the original appearance: trunk tightly closed and buried, but its location is masked - so it will be protected from the devastation of curiosity. On visiting the cache should unsubscribe and online guestbook, there can also leave important notes or warnings for the following selectors. This game is educational and nature, so that geocaching can be a family hobby. In describing the location of the treasure maker is not only about his immediate coordinates, but also explains why he chose this place. Perhaps the cache is located near the undeservedly forgotten monument or laid in an abandoned house mystical. The place should be a some cultural, historical or geographical interest. So many things can be learned, doing geocaching! And even if most have something to share, for example, tell an ancient legend, you can lay your own stash. Text: Olga Zabelkina.
