Video: A geocacher stands next to a metal fence with a grassy park in the background. They reach forward, grab a screw, and remove it from the fence, revealing a hidden cache container. They hold it up in front of them and focus on the geocaching logo.

Video: A geocacher approaches a metal cube covered in moss on a patch of grass. They turn a metal bolt counterclockwise on the top corner of the cube with a socket wrench; they untwist the bolt the rest of the way with their hand, and it falls to the floor. The cacher lifts the top three panels of the cube to reveal a hollow inside with a logsheet inside a plastic bag.

Video: In the first clip, a geocacher pulls a black tube from the top of a fence in a parking lot. Next, what looks like a street sign on a brick wall is removed to reveal a hidden log sheet on the backside. In the third clip, a geocacher reaches into an opening at the base of a tree and pulls out a plastic bag containing the log sheet. Finally, the camera closes in on a fence, where one of the poles is lifted out, revealing another geocache.
