Current Goal

Let it Ride is missing its Casino life at the Topaz Lodge (@ Topaz Lake in Nevada). This travel bug wants to travel to as many gambling towns as possible.

This is a good luck travel bug, so while at the gambling towns, you may want to stop at a Casino and place a $5 (or greater) bet at one of the tables. If you win, you should Let it Ride for a second hand or throw. Make sure you take pictures of this bugs travels and log the outcome of your bets.

About This Item

Let it Ride Travel Bug

I made a trip up route 395 in California with my family. My son and I did some Geocaching in Nevada and while we were there, we stopped at the Topaz Lodge Casino to pick up a couple of $5 chips. This travel bug is one of those chips.

I guess that I have to finally give up on this guy. I have marked him as missing. If you should happen to find him please log him in here and move him along to another cache. Thanks, Rocket Man

NO, Let it Ride is not with me! I just wanted to take it out from the cache, so now at least noone will go to the cache to look for it! :) But I don't have it! We still waiting for that cacher to put it to somewhere! But I hope it will happen soon!

Thanks a bunch to adavid for tracking down Let it Ride! It has the most miles of all of my travel bugs and it is one of my oldest. I was very sad to think that it had gone missing. I really appreciate all of adavid's efforts and his quick responses to my e-mails.

I placed This Travel bug a long time ago, but it looks dead, so, I started to trace where can it be.. I send a lot of email, but nobody saw it. The cache was stolen also, so I think it is better to unlearn this TB for a long time..

I tried to reach the top, but it wasnt possible. We start to go up with my brother at 8.30am in the morning (i think it is better to start at 7.00am) but that day there was just 5 people who tried to climb up in a normal tourist route. So wehad also crampons and ice axes, gps, and compass. We go up following a fottpath of a people who went up before us in a half an hour. In the beginning it is ok, but later (above the lake) at abot 1100m we started to get lost. Our footpath, had just gone when we saw back, and we cannot see anything at all. (I mean for 4 metres.. ) the temperature was about -5C degree, but the wind helped at 30mph so we feel -20C degree. The wind was also sweeping across.. I was wearing 3 jumper, and a jacket but it was still cold. That is the possible lookout at winter. (Actually we was slleping in a tent at the bottom of a mountain :) I logged, because i was carrying a travelbug, but i cant place so i bring back to hungary, it was travelling a lot .. :)
