Default Geocaching

So, to get my wife more interested in going off-road I have told her we can Geocach while we are out on the trail. So, if I am going to do this I am going to it right. Just received a geocoin in mail and need to activate it. She is stoked to go now! So, now Geocaching and off-roading is in my future. Does anyone else Geocach?

It is a geocoin. The license plate has numbers on it. You activate it and you leave it when you find a geocach. Then you track it. My wife is way into the whole thing. I guess these geocoins travel thosands of miles going from geocach to geocach.

Geocacher here also. That is a nice looking coin. I hope that you find a excellent hide to start that jeep geocoin.

I don't want to give it up because it is sweet, and they were a super limited run. Most of the other guys are copying with a color copy and laminating it. I am not sure if I am going to do that though. I need to get it activated before I do anything though.

I took my wife and mom out today and we had a sweet time.! We found two geocaches. I am chadsrub on geocaching.com.
