Geocaching in Mississauga

Outside today with the trusty Magellan Triton 400 GPS looking for geocaching treasures. For the muggles out there that do not know about geocaching check out the Wikipedia entry:

Geocaching is an outdoor activity in which the participants use a Global Positioning System (GPS) receiver or other navigational techniques to hide and seek containers (called "geocaches" or "caches") anywhere in the world. A typical cache is a small waterproof container (usually a tupperware or ammo box) containing a logbook. Larger containers can also contain items for trading, usually toys or trinkets of little value. Geocaching is most often described as a "game of high-tech hide and seek", sharing many aspects with orienteering, treasure-hunting, and waymarking.

Here are some snapshots of the adventures today:
