I think they tried to make a trademark of it, but it fell through...geocaching
is simply a term for using a GPS to find the treasure as it were. It's more of
an activity than a product. If you do caches on terracaching.com you are still
technically geocaching...

What I don't know is if the term 'Geocaching' is a trademark of
'Geocaching.com'. You may not be able to use that exact term in your
advertising. Just a thought.

It's not just the destination, but also the path you take and the friends you
make along the way.
