Cool Tech-Stuff You Can Do at a Park

We usually think technology detaches us from nature but there is a movement in the tech sector toward changing this. Here are 3 apps that will help you get out, get dirty, and get connected to nature without leaving your tech behind.

Cachly App


Apps like Geocaching and Cachly are reinventing treasure hunts and bringing them into the digital age. The software uses GPS to direct users to the treasure hidden by previous users. Usually, there will be a log for the geocaching players to sign and date. The items are to be placed back in their original position at the end.

iNaturalist


iNaturalist is an app for the nature and wildlife lover in your life. Users document their sightings, both plants and animals, and share their photos on the platform. Users can then discuss their findings with one another.


Ingress

The Ingress App says "the world is not what it seems." This app is a great way to get the video game lover in your life outside and interacting with nature. It is a sci-fi augmented reality mobile game. Very cool way to get yourself or your kids outside, and bring along the tech they love.

As always, remember to pack gumption
