❄️😩 These caches were already sneaky… the ❄️😩 These caches were already sneaky… then it snowed. 😩❄️

What’s your number 1 tip for geocaching in snowy conditions? 🕵️

Video by geosanity68.

Video: In the first clip, we see a geocacher place a logsheet into a hole in a log. They screw the cap on, lift the cache, and carefully place it into a tree. On-screen text reads: “Snow became the ultimate camouflage.” In the second video, a geocacher picks up a small snow-covered stump from the ground. As they lift it, a geocache container attached underneath is revealed, and they replace the geocache. In the third clip, a geocache container attached to a stump is shown, a geocacher smoothly slides it into its hiding spot. In the final video, a dog stands beside a geocache hidden inside a log cut in half that opens like a book. After closing it, the geocacher places it at the base of a tree.

Video by gc.an004.

Video: A geocacher approaches a metal sign in a coastal park. On the front of the sign is a metal emblem cut to resemble the outline of an island. The geocacher grabs the edge of the emblem and twists it counterclockwise, which opens a metal door on the other side of the sign. The geocacher opens the door to reveal a plastic cache container nested inside.

We love a good snake pun… 🐍 We think they’r We love a good snake pun… 🐍

Video: A geocacher stands in the woods next to a cluster of thin trees. Tied to one of the trees is a wooden box with the geocaching logo. The cacher unlocks the front of the box and removes a metal chain and a magnet. To the right of the box is a flexible plastic tube tied to another tree and decorated like a snake. They move the magnet along the length of the tube to the snake’s mouth, revealing a magnetic geocache container.

Video: The geocaching website is displayed on a tablet wrapped in a blanket, as if for a facial. Two cucumbers are placed on the geocaching map where eyes would be, and a hand reaches in and fixes the cucumbers and blanket framing the map.

Video: A geocacher stands under a cliff near the water. The camera pans from the water to a pile of rocks at their feet. They reach for one of the rocks and pick it up, revealing it is plastic and hollow. Under the plastic rock is another smaller rock; they pick it up and reveal that the bottom has been carved out, and the logbooks are stuck to the bottom.
