interesting website. I see we have some caches in our area in BC. might have to check it out this summer. Thx
I discovered Geocaching about 2 years ago. I'm hoping to do more caching this spring\summer. I've been meaning to bring a travel bug with me to Ja to see how quickly it can make it back to a cache near my home.
dang i've done some --- never thought about setting some up in jamaica --- how cool would that be
Good to see a few others involved with this activity... I was thinking of setting up an event while we are visiting Negril April 19-May 1.
Yah, I did some geocaching in Negril. Put my cache under an unopenned Red Strip bottle. Dang if PoolguyW didn't find it in fifteen minutes!
Would a GPS from North America even work in Negril? I assume you'd have to download maps etc.
not a cacher but i seem to remember there is a cache at a small but well known bar/brownie establishment in negril, just saying.
The GPS can give you your Latitude and Longitude within 12 feet in Jamaica........A built in road map may be a different story...Quote:

Yes, that geocache is called Jamaica Cowgirl.Quote:

Ahhh, so THATS what they call it :)Quote:
