Geocachers: Is there a way to geocache without a smartphone or GPS?
I’ve always wanted to start geocaching since finding out about it, but I don’t have a smartphone. My current contract expires in a year, so it’ll be a while before I can switch phones. I also don’t have $300 to spend on a dedicated GPS, since it’s such a specific role. Any ideas, such as GPS for laptop? Thanks!
As long as the cache isn’t deep in the woods, you can often study the satellite view and determine where the cache is located. This technique works well for urban caches, etc. A cacher in my area has found hundreds of caches without using a GPS or smart phone with this technique.
BTW, suitable (although not great) GPS receivers can be purchased for less than USD 100.
