What is an Anagram?
An anagram is a word or phrase formed by rearranging the letters of another word or phrase. For example, "LISTEN" and "SILENT" are anagrams of each other - they contain exactly the same letters.
Anagrams in Geocaching
Anagrams are extremely popular in geocaching puzzles because:
- Word puzzles: Jumbled letters often hide coordinates or clues
