Introducing Gear Up for Geocaching: More Treasure Than August Can Handle

Win Grand Prize Packages Through Geocaching!

Geocaching HQ is helping outfit three lucky adventurers through Gear Up for Geocaching. We’re calling all geocachers, both expert and new, for a treasure hunting opportunity. Geocaching HQ has partnered with some of your favorite outdoor brands to offer you the chance to win some big-time swag.

Sign up here between August 1 and 31 to be entered to win one of three prize packages.

Each package will include treasure from brands such as Camp Chef, Mountainsmith, Greenlayer, 7eye, MHM, Kor and Skratch Labs. We couldn’t sit out on the fun, though, so we’re also giving free one-year Geocaching Premium Memberships to each winner, to help you find more geocaches than ever. See below for a full breakdown of what you could win!

New to geocaching? No problem! Geocachers of all experience levels are welcome to participate. By filling out this form before the end of August, new and existing Geocaching members in the U.S. are eligible to enter using their Geocaching username. There is only one entry per person, and the deadline to enter is midnight on August 31. Three winners will be drawn and notified in early September. In the meantime, you can share stories or photos of your August finds on Twitter with @GoGeocaching using #GearUp or connect on Facebook. Also, you can participate in the 31 Days of Geocaching: every day you find a geocache in August, you will earn a unique calendar-style Geocaching souvenir.

So grab your GPS or smartphone, sign up to win some great gear and find a geocache near you!
