May 3, 2000 - Dave Ulmer hid a black bucket at N 45° 17.460
W
122° 24.800, filled with videos, books, software, and a
slingshot
as well as a logbook and pencil. He called it the First GPS
Stash.
He shared the waypoint of his "stash" with the online community
on
sci.geo.satellite-nav.
Within three days two different people read about his stash
on
the Internet, used their own GPS receivers to find the
container
and shared their experiences online. The sport of geocaching
was
born!
