Traditional Cache

This is one of several cache types. This is the original cache type consisting, at a bare minimum, a

container and a logbook. Normally you will find a clear container or ammo box containing items for

trade. Smaller containers, called micro caches are usually too small to contain anything except for a

logbook. The coordinates listed on the traditional cache page are the exact location for the cache.

Travel Bug®

A Groundspeak Travel Bug is a trackable tag that you attach to an item. This allows you to track your

item on Geocaching.com. The item becomes a hitchhiker that is carried from cache to cache (or

person to person) in the real world and you can follow its progress online.

USDA Forest Service (USFS)

The U.S. Forest Service, an agency within the Department of Agriculture, administers 191 million

acres (77.3 million hectares) of National Forests, Grasslands, and Prairies. These public lands are

generally geocaching-friendly, with exceptions of designated Wilderness Areas, and other specially

designated botanical, wildlife, and archaeological sites. The phrase "Caring for the land and serving

people" captures the Forest Service mission of achieving quality land management under the

sustainable multiple-use concept to meet the diverse needs of people. The Information Center in the

agency's national headquarters has been a Washington D.C. Virtual Geocache since August 12,

2001.

Virtual (cache)

This is one of several cache types which are no longer available for creation on Geocaching.com. A

virtual cache is a cache that exists in a form of a location. Virtual caches have no cache container; the

reward for these caches is the location itself and sharing information about your visit. Virtual caches

are now considered waymarks on Waymarking.com.
