SquishyGecko,
The “team
thing” is just a convenience. Our team started out with four members, but
half the team moved out of state. So now our team is really just my wife and
me, often just me. But it also includes anyone who joins us on a cache hunt
that isn’t already registered on geocaching.com.
I’ve often
worried that hunting with a handheld GPS looked conspicuous or suspicious. I
can’t imagine wandering around holding a laptop! ;-P
Want a good
event? Hit this cache next Saturday: http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_details.aspx?guid=287888bc-514f-48ab-9525-91e167957091
Welcome to
Geocaching!

Hi all ...
Fairly new to the geocaching hobby, however I've
already located four caches and have ordered a few travel bugs of my own to
start planting around the greater Phoenix area. :)
The equipment I'm using is a Toshiba laptop with a GPS
receiver, a wifi card, and DeLorme Maps. Maybe someday I'll purchase a
handheld GPS receiver and make life a little easier.
I've noticed there are quite a few teams operating,
and wonder what the benefit of operating within a team might be. Are
there team-oriented events?
Aside from that, any tips and advice which you might
offer would be awesome.
Thanks!
