The official description is "Geocaching is a real-world, outdoor treasure hunting game using GPS-enabled devices. Participants navigate to a specific set of GPS coordinates and then attempt to find the geocache (container) hidden at that location." In NYC the "container" can be smaller than a dime. Because we have so many muggles (non cachers) it is hard to have the geocache out in the open or a big container as they hide in less populated areas. The largest cache I have found was a Jeep.
