GPS Kids | Jake’s Journal: Save time and printouts with Garmin’s paperless geocaching

Geocaching, the high-tech gps kids watch treasure hunt, recently hit a monumental milestone when the number of active worldwide caches topped one million. That means that whether you live in a small town or a big city, it’s never been easier to find a cache near your neighborhood, favorite park or vacation destination, and Garmin’s new outdoor handhelds make it more enjoyable than ever to find these hidden treasures by displaying all of the information you need right on your Dakota, Oregon or Colorado gps kids watch device. And you never know when those hidden treasures might include a limited-edition Garmin geocoin that my fellow geo-stashers and I have left behind as a surprise. 

Whether you’re just getting started or have been caching for years, you can quickly and easily download the locations and details for any caches around the world directly to your Garmin handheld from My.Garmin.com. These details, when viewed on a Dakota,
Oregon or Colorado, can help you figure out the size and terrain of any given cache while sharing helpful hints and showing you other cachers’ recent attempts to find them. And because Dakota, Oregon and Colorado devices can store thousands of caches, you can preload as many as possible and not have to worry about carrying around piles of paper with you.
