These "rules of the trail" were written by the International Mountain Bicycling Association (IMBA). They are widely recognized as a standard set of rules for the sport of mountain biking.
We encourage you to abide by these rules. Remember that the more responsible each of us is on the trail, the better the image of off-road cycling becomes. The acceptance of our sport will ensure the support of our local communities and, in turn give us access to many great state and local parks.
Geocaching is a relatively new sport - it has only been around since 2000. The game is centered around using a GPS receiver to find a hidden "treasure", or cache, as it is known in the geocaching community. Anyone can hide a cache and then post the coordinates on various websites dedicated to the sport.
