Geocaching is a high-tech treasure hunt using a global positioning satellite (GPS) unit. Camp Floyd State Park is hosting a geocache treasure hunt in locating various historic sites within in the park. The event will be held on Saturday, March 23, 2013, from 10 a.m. – 4 p.m. Visitors who complete the treasure hunt will be awarded a special prize.
Participants are encouraged to bring their own GPS units. However, this year, Camp Floyd State Park is co-sponsoring the event with Magellan, a GPS company, who will be on hand with GPS units to loan and assist with the coordinates. Participants will be given the coordinates to the first cache and each subsequent cache will provide the next.
The geocache treasure hunt is included with paid museum admission of $2 per person, or $6 per family. Hamburgers, chips, hot dogs, and drinks will be available for purchase between 11 a.m. and 2 p.m. with proceeds supporting the programs and activities of Utah State Parks.
Take a look at last years Geocache!
