Our EarthCaches:
An EarthCache site is a special place that people can visit to learn about a unique geoscience feature or aspect of our Earth. Visitors to EarthCache sites can see how our planet has been shaped by geological processes, how we manage the resources and how scientists gather evidence to learn about the Earth. As a part of geocaching — an adventure game for Global Positioning System (GPS) users to cache and find locations with actual hidden items — an EarthCache adventure is treasure hunting for the caches that the Earth has stored. EarthCache sites do not use stored containers; their treasure is the lessons people learn about our planet when they visit the site.
EarthCaches take a lot of extra work to publish. For one thing, they need to be a legitimate science lesson so some amount of research is involved. Secondly, they must be unique. This means you can't just copy someone else's efforts into your area. Lastly, the reviewers require explicit permission from the property owner. Not a bad idea for all geocaches if the truth be told.
Considering the work we put into to be able to construct and publish three EarthCaches, we decided to reward ourselves with this geocoin.
