Geocaching is what started making me go /out/side. Does anyone else still do it? I bring a mountain bike and head to trails.

I do it too! It's much more fun than just hiking aimlessly and since geocaches are often around historical places it's a nice way to learn about my local history. I've already got all caches I could get to by foot, so I'm looking around for a cheap bike to get the ones that are further away.

Literally never seen anything like that, but maybe that's because I'm from Poland and there aren't any niggers in here.

niggers don't know about geo-caching thankfully. it's mostly hikers and older folks that do it. I have found free drugs tho, that was nice.

Last week I was enjoying some trail time after work. I found a geocache under an out of the way boulder. I wasn’t looking for it, I just happened to be in the same area. I looked into it when I got home and learned that they have a paid subscription model and that damn near every geocache along my favorite trails require a premium (paid) amount to see them. Pic related.
Now this pisses me off. They are making money by leaving garbage out there.
Once the mountains thaw out some more I’m going to get a free trial premium account then fine and remove all of them. Fuck geocaching.

Well, with people like >>2724242, >>2724244 and >>2724254, are you really that surprised there's a bit of gatekeeping?

That being said you can have plenty of fun with opencaching, which is a free alternative. I agree that "official" geocaching is an annoyance and I don't use it.

Commercializing public land and claiming to preach “leave no trace” while leaving garbage outside is not “gatekeeping.”
Besides, the ones in the screenshot are all premium because they are more difficult (as defined by them), which inherently filters most people.

Public land is already heavily commercialized, anon. This pretty low impact compared to other uses, like grazing, for example, or guided hunts, or survivalist training.

I just hope you're not that one faggot who leaves caches in boring, ugly and unremarkable places. Or make them more annoying than anything else (like a leaf-shaped micro in the middle of a shitty forest with bad gps coordinates).

People that didn't found at least 100 caches (probably not you) shouldn't be allowed to make any new ones.

>I see people doing the ones I put near my house and say hello, they're all very nice.
I vaguely remember that you could design yourself as a geocache - you'd say what are your usual whereabouts and people would have to meet you (and eventually learn a password from you) to claim they've found that cache. Did I hallucinate that or was that a real thing? I can't find anything about this kind of cache right now

bump, I'm still not sure about this one.

But while going through old wikipedia edits of their article about geocaching I found some really interesting types that don't seem to be a thing any more, like:
>Guest Book caches
>use guest books often found in museums, tourist information centers, etc.
or
>Finally, a USB Cache or Dead Drop cache
> location has a USB drive embedded into walls or other structures. The cache is retrieved by connecting a device that has a USB port and that is able to read standard text files.

Shame those USB caches are no more - it would be fun to see what kind of fucked up shit people would leave there.

I find it boring and constantly underwhelming. I've never encountered a truly challenging cache that is off-trail and hard to reach, nor a cache that actually had anything interesting in it.
Like a cache with a copy of the Protocols or Industrial Society. That would be quite funny.
Then again, there just aren't as many caches here as in the US.

Anon, niggers don't hike and they definitely don't hunt for geocaches in the wild. That's like the least niggerish activity imaginable.

Not knocking it, but it's always seemed like there'd be no significant challenge - enter precise GPS location, go to it, find some random thing.

Most geocaches are like that, I agree: it's just a fun excuse to visit new places you wouldn't otherwise knew about.
That being said some geocaches are absolutely brutal.

Geocaches usually have fairly accurate difficulty ratings associated with them, so you could focus on only the most difficult ones if you wanted, but understandably there won't be as many of those as the casual ones.

Few months ago I was trying to join army. They're always hiring, they pay really nicely, I liked the routine and clear rules they have and I thought that enforced discipline would help with my executive dysfunction.
Being told by their psychologists that they don't want me, while accepting people that are literally retarded, was awful. That's also when I learned that I'm actually autistic and not just quirky.

stopped when smart phones became a thing
the whole point of a geocache was printing off the 3 or 4 lines of cryptic text and going innawoods with that piece of paper and solving the puzzle
now every single one has a Google Map pin, GPS co-ordinates, multiple Youtube tutorials and 15 zoomers TikTok Twerking in front of it with their phones out.
