Geocaching is a game where you give gps coordinates to a little cache and people go there. It shouldn't require equipment or machinery to reach it.

It shouldn't require equipment or machinery to reach it.

That depends on the difficulty grade of the terrain. T5 often requires some equipment.

Some are in cliff faces for climbers. It’s got tiers and categories, maybe this one’s misidentified.

As someone else said, there are some difficult ones that require climbing gear (which reminds me of playing various MMOs) - one in my town is about 15m up a large tree!
