Geocache Description:

A chance for new geocachers to learn a few tricks on hiding your first geocache.  The event is from 2pm-4pm at the Hurstville Interpretive Center just north of the town of Maquoketa, IA.


Local geocachers have seen a boom in new participants in this great game.  I thought it would be fun to explain the basics of hiding your first geocache.  I will show you some of the containers that work, and some that just don't seem to cut it.  I'll give you a few tips on how to make a cache endure through all 4 of Iowa's seasons, how to keep a cache secure, and how to make finding them fun!

Come out for the afternoon, bring your gps, your imagination, and any questions you can think of.  By the time we're done, I hope I will have fueled your creative processes and you can publish your very first hide.  Looking forward to seeing you there!
