One of the more fun (and unique) things that we do with our Jeep is called Geocaching. But the truth is, you don't need a Jeep at all. You just need a handheld GPS device (or a cellphone with GPS enabled).
You see, there are caches (bundles of fun freebies) hidden all across the world just waiting to be found by everyday people like you and me.
The adventure comes in the lengths that you will go to find them. Some are hidden in parking lots, on main roads, and in fairly obvious and easy-to-get-to locations. Others vary in the degree to which they are "off the beaten path".
So no matter what your level of adventure is, there's a hidden cache that you will enjoy finding. And for those who enjoy puzzles, you'll appreciate the fact that many of the hidden caches can only be "found" by deciphering some simple code, puzzle, or clues first.
Last year, Jeep had a fun contest where they hid Jeep Travel Bugs all across the U.S. and with the aid of a GPS, you could participate in their game to win fun prizes.
This year, there's no such game (yet), but they do have an online version of Jeep geocaching that they're letting people download and play for free.
