People will hide caches, usually in a waterproof container (the military ammo box is very popular), and record
the latitude/longitude coordinates for the cache. Inside the container is the “bounty” that is the prize for
locating the cache. In many cases there may be a log book for you to sign, indicating that you have found the
cache. You can take your prize from the cache and, as many do, leave something new in the container for the
next person who comes along.
