I went letter boxing once........

.....spoilt a good walk!

Never seen a geocache but the letterboxes tend to be small tupperware boxes with a notepad and a rubber stamp in. You stamp the note pad with your stamp and stamp your note pad with the stamp in the box...what fun!

They tend to hide them under rocks or in cracks...and after a while you know where to find them.

Despite my feelings about spending all day walking around a square mile of moor sticking your hand in damp crevises, the "hobby" does teach people map reading skills..and gets them outside away from the TV.

But surely there's more to life.....
