Geochaching is fun but after a while as people keep refilling the cache with worse and worse prizes. It can start out cool like a flint striker or flashlight but then it gets progressively cheaper like a used AA battery or pocket lint.
LOL!!! Most of the cache today are micros. Seems to be a shift to making them impossible to find as apposed to swapping small tokens. I would say 90% of what I find today are so small you only have a paper log to record your visit. You are correct about some of the bigger containers. If the owner does not maintain them well they can go to crap.
