Current Goal

Sharky was on his way to Egypt when he got caught up in a forest fire in a cache in Florida. Fellow geocachers rescued his remains, which only include the dog tag (see photo). The remains are now attached to information regarding the origins of Smokey the Bear. Please spread this TB to wooded areas in order to spread the message to those in the position to prevent forest fires. Ultimately, this TB's goal is to travel as many forests around the world as possible. Thanks.

Found as we travel back to Calif after a 3 month RV trip in the Maritimes. He was in the middle of the desert but we know a good spot to take him. This is special as 2 granddaughters are volunteer firefighters.
