Geocaching Etiquette

Obey local laws. Follow regulations governing the use of roads and other public areas. Obtain permission before entering private property.
Leave No Trace. Practice “Cache in Trash Out”. Clean up litter along the way and don’t leave any behind. This helps keep trails clean.
Respect the Geocache. Replace the container exactly as you found it.
Log your find. Sign the logbook and share your experience on the app. If you take something from the cache, leave something of equal or greater value.
Keep ‘em moving. Only take a trackable item if you are willing to help it travel from geocache to geocache.
