If the Jetsons had imagined hide-and-seek, geocaching would be it. By heading outside and using GPS, seekers track down geocaches—most often logbooks—all over the world, leave their mark (or username) and rehide for the next seeker.

And it’s catching on: When Geocaching launched in 2000, there were just 75 hidden geocaches. Today, there are more than 2.6 million.

The company’s Seattle headquarters house about 80 employees who develop apps and add new features to the website in order to inspire more would-be outdoor lovers.
