Welcome to OpenCaching North America! Geocaching is about having fun outdoors while using GPS-enabled devices to find "treasure" hidden by other participants. Typical geocaches are small watertight containers that holds a logbook in which the finder can record their visit. The container may also hold small trinkets that can be traded. To learn more about geocaching visit our wiki pages.

Welcome to OpenCaching North America.
Geocaching is an outdoor sport or activity in which cachers use a GPS connected device to find hidden containers placed by other participants. Caches contain items for exchange and a logbook in which the finder records their discovery of the cache. Finds are then recorded digitally on the OpenCaching website where the coordinates of the cache's location are stored along with the description and instructions necessary to find it.
OpenCaching North America is completely free to use and is maintained by member volunteers.

Brenda and I enjoyed finding your cache today. It takes a "CO" with a big heart to place a cache that is wheel chair accessible. There are only a small amount of caches out there of the many cache listings that include this great hobbie for all to enjoy. I have seen others but "HATS OFF TO NativTxn" for including everyone to get out and about. It means a lot for those who are challenged and want to get on with life. TFTC!
