Géocaching Un article de Wikipédia, l'encyclopédie libre. L'un des symboles les plus utilisés pour le Geocaching Le contenu d'une « géocache » en Allemagne. Le géocaching (ou geocaching) est un loisir qui consiste à utiliser la technique du géopositionnement par satellite (GPS) pour rechercher ou dissimuler un contenant (appelé « cache » ou « géocache ») dans divers endroits à travers le monde. Une géocache typique est constituée d’un petit contenant étanche et résistant comprenant un registre des visites et un ou plusieurs « trésors », généralement des bibelots sans valeur. Historique[modifier | modifier le code] Ce type de chasse au trésor était à l'origine appelé par ses premiers participants GPS stash hunt, ou gpsstashing. La popularisation et la démocratisation des récepteurs GPS portables depuis le milieu des années 2000, désormais vendus à des prix comparables à ceux des appareils photos numériques, a été essentielle à l'essor du géocaching.

A property listed in the National Register, or located within a National Register Historic District, may qualify for tax incentives derived from the total value of expenses incurred preserving the property. For most of its history the National Register has been administered by the National Park Service (NPS), an agency within the United States Department of the Interior. Its goals are to help property owners and interest groups, such as the National Trust for Historic Preservation, coordinate, identify, and protect historic sites in the United States. Some examples are Fallingwater, Robie House, Martin Luther King Jr's Grave, and Old Slater Mill.
