What is Geocaching?

Geocaching is a fast-growing hobby in which one geocacher uses a GPS device to 'cache' an object somewhere on the planet and another uses a GPS device to find that cache using provided latitude and longitude coordinates. Caches are commonly hidden in parks like Harriman, but many can be found in residential areas. Find out more by watching the informational video provided by geocaching.com.

Cache Me If You Can

The Harrimaniacs hosted their first competitive event on July 3, 2010-- 113-100703: Cache Me If You Can. This first event in the Live Fire competition series and first ever CMIYC was our first geocaching race. The premise is simple. Team form around a captian with a GPS device. Teams meet at a starting line and have a desinated amount of time to find as many caches in Harriman as possible and return to the starting point before time expires.
