Geocaching is an entertaining adventure game for GPS users. Participating
in a cache hunt is a good way to take advantage of the wonderful features and
capability of a GPS unit. The basic idea is to have individuals and
organizations set up caches all over the world and share the locations of
these caches on the internet. GPS users can then use the location coordinates
to find the caches. Once found, a cache may provide the visitor with a wide
variety of rewards. All the visitor is asked to do is if they get something
they should try to leave something for the cache.
Geocaching and sand dunes are a perfect match. Kids love the adventure and
many OHV users already have GPS units.
Below you will find a partial list of geocaches that you can
look for at various dunes in the United States. You will first need to
create a user on Geocaching.com. Then you
will be able to map out caches in the dunes.
Not all of the dunes listed are open to Off-Highway Vehicles
(see notes).
DuneGuide.com links are provided for information about
dunes where available.
