Geocaching
Southern Oregon Geocaching
Using a GPS receiver or mobile device and other navigational techniques, geocaching is an outdoor adventure that participants use to hide and seek containers, called "geocaches" or "caches," anywhere.
This tiny waterproof container contains a logbook, and the geocacher enters the date they found it and signs it with their established code name. After signing the log, the cache must be placed back exactly where the person found it. Larger containers can contain items for trading, usually toys or trinkets of little financial value. Experience Southern Oregon geocaching in Klamath Falls with Running Y Ranch Resort.
There are over 36 caches on the premises.

Star Gazing
Gazing the Southern Oregon Night Sky
In big cities, skyscrapers light up the night sky. In Oregon, only the stars do. Our night sky sparkles with over 10,000 stars to the eye. With only the sounds of nature around you, feel the serenity of the outdoors. You can see plenty of stars on any average night or plan a special night for a meteor shower.
Plan your vacation by the lunar calendar and keep the weather predictions handy.
