Current Goal

To move ONLY within a limited area, no more than 10 miles from Westboro, MA ground zero coordinates, so that information attached to the bug will be accessible to those interested in completeing the CSI Series.

About the CSI Series:

The CSI series is a collection of caches that derive their name from the popular television program in which the lead character has often been heard to say, “Follow the evidence.” Unlike a more traditional mystery cache in which a puzzle must be solved to determine the coordinates of the cache, the CSI series offers something different. Instead of conquering a puzzle, you must follow the evidence to each CSI container. For more details about the series and where the “evidence” can be found, go to the CSI-1 cache page click here

About This Item

CSI Travel Bug

The CSI Travel Bug is directly linked to CSI-Epilogue: Sleuth's Handbook, the final cache of the CSI Series.

There are two ways CSI "students" may obtain the Sleuth's Handbook. One option is to locate the CSI Travel Bug which holds coordinates to a micro that begins a multi-stage hunt to the CSI-Epilogue cache.

For more about CSI-Epilogue: The Sleuth's Handbook click here

The CSI Lab also reserves the right to place short-term bonus clues to assist students with a designated CSI cache. Such clues could be placed with the CSI Travel Bug and/or inside any cache the bug has visited. When available, bonus clues will offer specific new evidence for one CSI cache. Such evidence will remain in play for an unknown period of time before being removed.

If you are interested in completing the series, keep this bug on your watchlist. Visitations by the bug owner, or anyone from the CSI Lab, either to check or move the bug, should not be regarded as insignificant by those seeking to accumulate evidence.

Desired destinations for the CSI Travel Bug:

Again, please remember, the purpose of this Travel Bug is to provide access to coordinates for CSI-Epilogue and the Sleuth's Handbook inside, and to provide access to special CSI bonus clues. As a result, the bug should not be moved far and it should not be held for long.

The 10-mile radius from Westboro works well because that encompasses most of the territory in which the CSI series of caches have been placed.

Ideally, it would work best if the bug's movement is limited only to within the following cities/towns listed roughly north to south and west to east below:

Boylston
Berlin
Hudson
Northboro
Marlboro
Sudbury
Westboro
Southboro
Grafton
Upton
Hopkinton

The CSI Sites:

The pictures below reveal the sites you will see as you work your way through the CSI series. Each shot offers a piece of evidence that could help you in some way. There is one picture for each CSI cache including the Epilogue along with a picture that relates to the Vault, with all positioned in no particular order. Additional information about the pictures is provided on the CSI-1 cache page. click here

. Hello CSI bug "watchers." In case you did not see this note from one of my cache page logs, Gil Grissom is done and soon I will be too, more specifically, I will be retiring from this site, though I doubt I will enjoy the same retirement benefits as Mr. Grissom. At any rate, this is an advance notice to those who may be interested to know that I will be archiving my caches in the coming weeks, with a few staying open longer if requested. Since some out there are in the midst of completing various series I have published, and a few may be working on the so called "Full Emmett," I will be willing to keep selected caches open by request for a while and possibly even address maintenance problems if they arise. If time allows me, at some point in the next year or two I may consolidate my current 75 caches into about fifty new ones that would be published on a different site. In the meantime, send me an email or post a note to let me know if there are any caches you would like me to keep online for a while. Also, if I have a cache in a territory you have your eye on and would like to claim it for an idea you have, let me know. We might be able to work something out. Thanks, Emmett .

We know where we will be putting this. We will probably get out that way in the next week or two.

Well Gil Grisson is now retired and off to South America I think. Meanwhile, I have not been diligent to keep the evidence flowing. I never received notification that the bug had been taken from the area and have sent a note to Trainlove to see what his plans are. Will see if I can get some new information out there. Don't forget, these are great for the snow: CSI-3 CSI-4 CSI-7 Got a kick out of watching Gil’s last CSI episode on TV. The methods he employed to find a kidnapper’s location were much like methods I employed to CSI my way to a couple of TNC caches way back when. The experience gave me a bit of a CSI addiction and eventually lead to the creation of this series. Who knows, now that Gil has some free time on his hands, maybe he'll head north to check on his offspring.
