How to Set up a Geocache
PAF – Phone a Friend – when a cacher calls a friend to get a hint as to a cache hide. P&G – Park & Grab – refers to a cache that would be close to a parking spot that can be quickly found. PI – Poison Ivy.

What do geocache containers look like?

Geocache boxes come in all different shapes and sizes. They can be anything, but they are usually small, weatherproof boxes made of metal, wood, or plastic. You might find a camouflaged Altoids tin, a can of mixed nuts, or an ammo box. The cache will be hidden (but not buried) in a safe, non-intrusive place.

Are there dangers involved in geocaching?

At the top of the dangers is that you might not find the cache. While this might not sound so bad, if you have an intense desire to find the certain item, you might be out in the forest or street for many hours. Sometimes caches are taken from their GPS location by people (children) or by groundskeepers.
