GPS Handheld
The introduction of GPS handheld systems has created a new sport called geocaching. Geocaching is a high-tech treasure seeking game played throughout the world by adventure seekers equipped with GPS devices. The basic idea is to locate hidden containers, called geocaches, outdoors and then report your experiences online. Geocaching is enjoyed by people from all age groups, and a sense of community is evolving through geocaching.

The typical geocache is a small waterproof container containing a logbook and “treasure,” usually toys or trinkets of little value. According to Wikipedia, there are over 800,000 geocaches registered on various websites devoted to the pastime. Geocaches are currently placed in over 100 countries around the world and on all seven continents, including Antarctica.
