Current Goal



The three travel BUGs Huey (by Jeo), Dewey (by Bootdisk) and Louie (by Mc5) are embarking out together on a long and challenging race. Each travel BUG wants to be the first to travel from Orangevale, CA to Holly Springs, NC.

About This Item

Dewey the travel BUG


The travel BUGs' race was inspired by their role-model, the '63 travel BUG which was recently shipped from California to North Carolina. Even though the '63 travel BUG was shipped directly, these little travel BUGs want to travel via geocaching and stop in each state along the way. Please don't take them across more than one state line at a time.

Huey, Dewey and Louie are each also trying to win their own special race:

- The farthest total distance travelled by January 1st, 2007
- The longest single jump by January 1st, 2007
- The most states (or countries) visited by January 1st, 2007
- The most caches visited by January 1st, 2007
- The most cachers traveled with by January 1st, 2007
- The most cachers with photos in their logs by January 1st, 2007

Also, Huey, Dewey and Louie love their street-legal counterparts, and enjoy having their pictures taken with Volkswagons of all types.

Well I tried once to get Dewey moving along a major interstate and surprise, it ended up right back here in good ol' Central Oregon. I wasn't hunting it, but just happened to find Dewey again and I happen to be going to Portland this weekend. Dewey will visit its 3rd State on Friday or Saturday and hopefully be ready to move on eastward towards its final destination!
