      Whatever a cache leads to, the process of finding the cache will usually stir the geocacher’s curiosity to the point of learning something. As geocachers learn more about the area in which they are caching, they will have a natural tendency to pay attention to the setting and their surroundings.

      Like any outdoor activity, geocaching involves some inherent risk, and many geocachers enjoy manageable risks.
