Spl1nt3rC3ll

 Thanks! Yes, it was for a school project. 

Gladly! The best materials to use are ammo boxes and containers called "Lock-and-Lock containers. Other common caches are bison tubes and black magnetic nanos. You can camouflage these containers any way you like but some people get creative, disguising them as common, ordinary things. I'm not exactly sure how you can obtain the coordinates without a GPS, but you could try placing them near some kind of landmark and find the coordinates on Google Maps.

I found my first 20 caches without a GPSr, it's actually really easy to do. Just copy the coordinates from the cache page and paste them into Google Maps. Take a screenshot of the area and try to match up the arial view with what you see when you arrive. You could do the same with this map (overlaid with cache locations, I don't know if it's members only though).

You got those two right! There's also TFTF (thanks for the find) and TFTH (thanks for the hunt). Another common one is FTF, which means First To Find. My favorite is Muggle, which is a person who is unaware of geocaching (make sure they don't spot you opening a cache!).
Here is a list of all the terms:

Also, if you take something from a cache, replace it with something of equal or greater value. That way there's always something to trade.

A bison tube is a small, cylindrical container with a screw on cap that is attached to a key ring. It's easy to hide by hanging it from objects like branches.

Took me forever to find my first one. I was literally staring at it for the longest time before I saw it.

 Cool, hope you enjoy the hunt! Show me a picture of the cache, if you can. When I first found out about caching, I was amazed to find that some of the caches were in places that I'd walked by every day!

(The images above are pictures of caches I've found, I forgot to mention that in my original post.)

The minimum distance between caches is .1 mile, or 500 feet. 1500 is more than enough, you should be fine. : )

Sure, go ahead. The funny thing is that when I first made my name, the only Google results for a Spl1nt3rC3ll search would be my Instructables stuff. Now, there's 11,000 Spl1nt3rC3lls. I'm the original. : )

Awww. We had a two hour delay today and will have a two hour delay tomorrow. :D

I had three snow days in a row. The only downside is that I'm completely snowed in now.

Sweet, I'll try it out. Uh, hold on a sec... *digs holes for ~~land mines~~ flowers in the yard*.

Robot could be a little larger.

Perfect, thanks!

Schoolwork's been eating up all my time _{^{and sanity}}, I've been doing an average of five hours of homework a day.

Just testing it out. : ) I was thinking my original doesn't show up on some computers; It looks plain white on the school's.

Yea, I'm going to change it back. The dog is kinda my signature drawing.

Thanks! :)

_{Apparently I thought that I already posted this. Sorry for the delay. ;).}

What are the red lines? :P

Ohhh, never mind.

How'd you do that? Did you type in Gig Harbor? That development is really easy to spot. :P

Lol, you're welcome. It's really simple and cool.

_{I can also sell it for $650!}

Lol!

*Checks pantry* I do have an old lightbulb and some lamp oil! I'm making this tomorrow!

Here's an idea: add some fragrance instead of lamp oil and you have one of these:

Thanks!

:D Thanks! Chaoscampbell did it.

I haven't sent any hate mail, I've just been asking you to stop
