Geocache Description:

Walking around aimlessly in the Nation's Capital?? Why not stop on by and bag this easy webcam cache...and allow the rest of the geocaching community see what the hell you look like!!

Washington DC! Webcam cache

Washington DC, near George Washington University

This webcam situated in Washington DC - If you are in the area, why not get a little virtual geocaching in and bag this webcam cache. Its fun! Look for the George Washington campuses - especially the Gelman Library across the road - see the webcam on top? SMILE :)

To do this Virtual geocache, you will need

  • GPS
  • Mobile (cell)phone
  • Friend behind a computer connected to the Internet and a phone
  • the desire to have your picture taken with a geocaching logo (optional) posted here

Ok. Now for the fun part:

  • Go to the coordinates listed above. This will take you to the intersection streets shown in the webcam in one of its views. You need to face up to get your face towards the webcam. I suggest the camera operator spend some time finding the best spot.

  • Call your friend and get them to access the webcam on the Net. All he has to do is navigate the webcam to find you in your classic pose holding your Geocaching Logo(see uploaded images) page and take a snapshot! Thats it!

THE WEBCAM

(Click to launch)


This webcam is fully user-interactive. To begin control of the camera click the "Start Control" button. Your turn to operate the cam is counted down on the queuing timer. Once it turns green, use the slider bars, click on the image, or try a preset camera position. Its simple to use with a little practice.

All your friend has to do is track you down using the webcam. Once found and you have selected a cool pose with the sign with the geocaching logo (optional), he/she can snap your picture by pressing the mini camera icon at the bottom left corner of the webcam.

This will bring up another screen with the photo. Right click the mouse and Save Picture. Voila! Upload the picture with your log and your 1 min of fame is immortalized!
