    Smile Hello

    Hi everyone,

    We are a family of 4 who are from Essex and we have all most definitely caught the geocaching bug. A friend introduced us to it and the kids love it. Our two girls (aged 4 & 6) now think that everytime we leave the house we are going to look for "boxes"!:lol:

    Currently we are using an iphone to find caches but the battery is such an issue (runs out too quickly) that we are now looking to buy a new GPS system. Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated as I have no idea at what features I should be looking for

    Find out if there's an event local to you, worth attending and seeing what others have... (Especially if you say your new and what to see examples of kit)

    Thank you for the advice, it looks like we had just missed out on a geocaching event at our local woods that was organised by our local council. If only I had looked sooner!

    Hopefully there will be another one soon
