During our stay at Hungry Mother State Park, kite flying friends Will and Heidi, camped with us for the weekend. Will and Heidi have a goal of camping at all the Virginia state parks. They had been to Hungry Mother prior and knew the area. So we're glad that they decided to camp with us.
One of the things we did on this weekend instead of kite flying, was geocaching. Harold and I have been geocaching for awhile, but Will has definitely taken it a step further, creating a few geocache hiding spots of his own.
Geocaching is self-described as a treasure hunt. Logbooks and containers are placed in hiding spots and the treasure hunter finds them, signs the logbook, and maybe places a few items in the container for others. Hungry Mother has a number of geocaches on the trail around the lake. Some are harder to find than others. The park staff has created an official CCC geocache hunt where you receive an embroidered CCC patch when you complete the ten finds.
