To promote safety for the Geocaching community
Hello, I am SAM. SAM stands for Safety Always Matters. I was made to promote safety
within my company. Now I want to promote safety within the Geocaching
community.
As with any outdoor activity, it is important to be
prepared. Here are a few helpful tips (source: Geocaching
Homepage):
- Make sure to tell someone where you are going and when you intend
to return. Going into a forest or remote locations without a partner is
inherently. Geocaching is great fun, so think
about planning a group hike with your family or friends around the geocache adventure.
- Pay attention to your surroundings. It is easy to focus on your GPS
device and forget to look around you. Being conscious as to where you are
walking will not only ensure your personal safety but will also respect
the environment.
- Pack your pack. Bring along a compass, map and extra batteries in
case your GPS device fails. No matter the terrain or length of time on the
trail, it is always a good idea to set out with extra clothing, food and
water.
- Be mindful of the local environment, especially during seasonal
changes. Is the area prone to poison ivy or poison oak? What about bugs or
dangerous animals? Not sure of the area in which you are heading? Ask a
question in the regional geocaching forums.
Local geocachers are happy to help support you.
