Geocaching
PRESENTATION :
Geocaching was born in 2006 thanks to the development of the U.S army satellites.
A that time, the satellites have became very precise. One week later, geocachers
(the name given to participants) have hidden caches all over the earth. In french
there are more than 20000 caches.
How does it work ?:● The goal of the game :
The goal is to find caches by players (a player can hide or seek caches of other
players. Players who hide caches must enter the coordonates of their caches
geocaching.com● what's the cache ?
A cache is a box containing trinkets and a small notebook where you can enter your
name. Caches are of different sizes : small, medium and large.
