Whites DFX 300, Vintage Tesoro Sidewinder
It was a cold 30 degree windy, snowy day here.....so the detector stayed home while we geocached. Found caches in 3 very old cemeterys, one with a buried civil war soldier and other markers dating back to the 1700's. Lot of great history.....here are a few pics.

Those are the hidden objects we look for. They are containers that old little nick nacks....and mainly logs to sign when you find them.
 
pardon my ignorance, but what exactly is geocaching? :icon_scratch:

Geocaching is like a world wide scavenger hunt. You get a hand held gps and sign up for free at geocaching.com then you just type in your zipcode and how far you want to look....and all kinds of items will pop to look for. People hide stuff in containers all over the place and the only way to find them is with gps coords. Its a lot of fun....and when I cant metal detect this is what I do. I would say go to the website and read about it. Its a great way to stay outdoors...get exercise and as a bonus....you can find some great places to md that you may not even know existed.
