Derbyshire Geocachers

This is a quiz about a sport called "Geocaching". It's a sport that combines "treasure hunting" with walking. The treasures are found using handheld GPS (sat-nav) equipment. The "treasures" are low value $ store items, and are not difficult to find. It's a great family sport. If you're going for a walk anyway, you might as well find some treasure at the end?

You can find out how to visit many interesting places close to you, that you never knew existed. Most treasure hides (called "caches") are placed in places that folks want you to visit, because there's something nice to see there. Hope you fare well in the quiz, thanks for taking part.
