What's in a Geocach?
Between the micro geo's and the extra large geo's there's always something to see. It could be just a note or something that's "treasure" to the last person who found.
That's the thing. If you go geocaching, be sure and bring things to leave in the geo. That's half the fun. The treasures are always changing and you can go back and visit geos you've already seen and find something new.
