Presenter: Andrew Dunkley<br>
This is all you need to go Geocaching...a GPS devise to tell you where to go<br><br>
Well...we think it's a sport, or at the very least a hobby.
<br><br>
It involves the planting of an item in a specific location...known as a cache.
<br><br>
The localtion is published on the internet and people have to find it using GPS technology.
<br><br>
It's really just a huge game of hide and seek.
<br><br>
Once you find the cache you fill in the log book to say you were there and swap trinkets.
<br><br>
There are over 1300 geocaching teams in Australia and it's played in over 200 countries.
<br><br>
Dubbo will be hosting a huge geocaching event this weekend with twenty teams taking part.
<br><br>
The trick, I'm told it to find a picturesque location so that geocashing players get something extra from the experience.
