Geocaching via a Smartphone has opened the hobby to millions of potential gamers.
The winner! Halice Schoonover shows a spot where a geocache had been hidden.
Two of the Schoonover girls read notes left by previous geocachers—some from international visitors who were here on vacation.
The Schoonover clan search the woods at an unnamed Grand Strand city park. Any public place is fair game for stashing a cache, including, say the Schoonovers, nearly every public beach access.
Heather Schoonover holds up a Travel Bug, which is a coded trinket that may be tracked online as it travels around the world.
Geocachers Chip and Karen Schoonover (center) are flanked by their four teenage daughters, who also enjoy the hobby. From left to right: Halice, Heather, Haley and Hollie.
