Geocaching is a worldwide scavenger hunt that uses a GPS or phone app with GPS. There are over 3 million active caches around the world. Some are as small as a dime, others are big enough to walk into, all of them provide a unique adventure. We invite you to share your stories, photos, and experiences!

I thought the point of geocaching was anybody could play and look up locations. A DND and a lock kind of makes them irrelevant.

I think the Do Not Disturb is meant for non-geocachers. The geocacher who finds this can look up the code listed on the front to get the combination, if I'm remembering correctly.

Correct! The cache description has a hint to lead you to the right combination

Oooh that's a combo lock not a key. Yeah that makes sense!
