Geocaching
Port au Choix National Historic Site
Geocaching is a modern treasure hunt – a new sport that is growing in popularity with people of all ages. Given the latitudinal and longitudinal co-ordinates, participants use their GPS (Global Positioning System) unit to locate the hidden “cache,” a small box with a punch to record their visit on the program card.
The Exploring Our Ancient Home Geocache Challenge
To participate, here's what you need to do:
- Join www.geocaching.com, the global GPS caching website.
- Use either a GPS or Smartphone to download the geocaching app.
- Obtain all the co-ordinates for the geocaches from geocaching.com.
- You must have a valid day entry for the site.
- Use your device to find the caches.
Upon completion of all caches in the challenge, you can purchase a trackable geocoin! Come to our Visitor Centre to learn more.
