The Geocaching Glossary

The Geocaching Glossary

Over the years,geocaching has developed its own set of terms, slang and abbreviation. If you play the game for any length of time, terms like "muggle" and "FTF" will become a natural part of your vocabulary, but to the new cacher or uninitiated these terms can be confusing.

 The geocaching glossary is always growing and developing just as the game is. One feature of the Geocacher University glossary is that--in addition to searching terms in this page--you will find definitions within the articles and content of the site. Simply put your mouse over the linked terms (identified with this question mark Glossary) and the definition will pop-up.

With any dictionary there are always questions of the accuracy of the definition. I make no pretense of in depth knowledge of technical terms. In writing these definitions I've tried to keep in mind the question, "If we were talking about geocaching over a cup of coffee how would I describe this term?"

As always, I welcome your input on this section. If you have any words you would like to see defined or if you find mistakes or need for further clarification please contact me and I will do my best to address the issues.

Happy Bunny Dance

Elite Geocaching Practice

A very happy bunnyWhen caching in a group it's quite common for one cacher to find the geocache first and--not wanting to spoil the hunt for the rest of the cachers--simply move off and allow the rest to continue their search. When enough time has elapsed, the finder may indicate his or her success by performing The Happy Bunny Dance.

Both hands are placed behind the head with the forefinger and middle finger extended together above the head to simulate rabbit ears. The finder then beings hopping from foot to foot accompanied by supple pelvic gyrations and occasional leaps of ecstasy. Eventually the other cachers will notice this.

Note: The Happy Bunny Dance is performed by only the most physically fit geocachers. Novices should avoid The Happy Bunny Dance at all costs. Ignoring such warning can lead to cracked vertebrae, broken pelvises or even spontanious human combustion.
