“Simon Says” is a challenging game of reaction and memory. Speden Spelit Nopeustesti is a geocache that emulates this fun and sometimes frustrating game with multi-colored lights. It won’t be hard to find, but it will be difficult to get to the logbook if you cannot follow the pattern of lights perfectly.

Die Antarktis ist das Zuhause einiger Caches, die auf der ganzen Welt am Schwersten zu ergattern sind. Damit ist es gleichermaßen ein Reiseziel für Abenteurer und Geocacher. Der fünftgrößte Kontinent ist eine Landmasse, die von einer riesigen Eisschicht bedeckt ist, die an manchen Stellen dicker als 3,2 Kilometer sein kann. In der Antarktis befinden sich fast 5.000 m hohe Berge, die tiefste Schlucht der Erde, ein aktiver Lavasee, eine faszinierende Tierwelt und 51 aktive Geocaches für die Du Dir ab jetzt ein offizielles Souvenir verdienen kannst.

Today, we release a new country/regional souvenir for Antarctica! If you have already found a geocache in Antarctica, you automatically receive the souvenir on your profile.

Home to some of the hardest-to-reach geocaches in the world, Antarctica proves to be a worthy endeavor for adventure enthusiasts and geocachers alike. The fifth-largest continent is, in fact, a landmass despite being covered by a giant sheet of ice, which in some areas is over 2 miles (3.2 kilometers) thick. Antarctica has mountains just shy of 5,000 meters, a massive frozen grand canyon, an active lava lake, arctic wildlife, and 51 geocaches that can now earn you the official souvenir!

Are you in good caching spirits? We hear there’s a ‘Gathering of Soles’ for those looking for a smiley in Western New York. This cache is laced with trickery and no easy feet to solve. Hundreds of shoes have been thrown into these four trees since the 80’s, which means there are a lot of misleading hiding spots. No need to stick your tongue out in frustration though, most geocachers meet their sole-mate and walk away with a new hop in their step.

There is only one good, geocache, and many evil, red-herrings.” – Sockrates
