Geocaching with the Easton Public Library

Easton Geocaching

The Easton Public Library, in collaboration with the Pollinator Pathway (a conservation project of the Easton Garden Club), is very excited to offer this town-wide program for all ages.

The challenge: find eight Easton destinations which encourage being active and outdoors. Each destination will have a small marker with a QR code and some information on local plant life. Scan the QR code with your phone and fill out the short form. Now, on to the next destination. This is a fun and active way to discover some beautiful Easton destinations. Easton Geocaching will run throughout the fall.

How to Find the Destinations

  1. On your smartphone or tablet, open a maps app.

  2. In the search box at the top, type your coordinates. Here is an example: ​​

  3. Decimal degrees (DD): 41.40338, 2.17403 Remember to put a comma in between the two coordinates, and include the minus sign in the second coordinate.

  4. You’ll see a pin at your coordinates.

  5. That's your destination.

  6. Look for the marker, then scan the QR code and submit the form.

  7. Now, on to the next destination.
