Geocaching

Doc and I decided to try geocaching for the first time last week. We picked a spot on the hill behind where we live. After a slightly round about route we reached the location where the cache was hidden. We misread the clue at first and spent quite a bit of time searching the ruins on the hill, only to realize that the cache was hidden between two rocks below the ruins. Here are some photos of our first geocaching adventure.


Bärlauch fields along the trails


A nice view of Zürich


Lake Zürich in the distance


Doc checking the GPS to see which direction we need to go


The GPS indicated to follow this trail


We finally reached the ruins and spent a long time searching to no avail


Then Doc checked out these stones ...


... and ta dah, found the cache.

We had great fun and plan to do this more often. It certainly makes taking a walk a bit more exciting!
