Pi Day 2022!
Happy Pi Day!
Much like pi, geocaching gives us seemingly infinite ways to explore and expand our horizons. Countless people know how unique today is, and it would be a pi-ty if we didn’t stop and appreciate the moment.
Grand Mosque Multi — Geocache of the Week
What if we told you the Grand Mosque in Abu Dhabi is shrouded in a Grand Mystery?
The old adage says fortune favors the bold, but it’ll take more than guts to get to the bottom of this 6-stage Multi-Cache. The key to your success is a tiny treasure, fabled to be just the size of a film canister, hidden deep within the walls of this 30 acre (12 hectare) megastructure. Cryptic messages and symbols stand in your way but, if followed correctly, legend says you’ll be rewarded with timeless joy and, of course, a smiley. Are you up for the challenge?
Arctic Circle Trail (K –> S) — Geocache of the Week
One of the greatest gifts geocaching can offer is the ability to find adventure anytime, anywhere. Whether you’re looking for a quick “park & grab” or a 100-mile (160km) journey across frozen tundra, there’s a cache out there waiting for you. For those interested in the extreme, break the ice with our next Geocache of the Week, Arctic Circle Trail (K –> S).
Casket 4 – Geocache of the Week
Mysterious, fascinating, and perfect for tourists. Are we describing geocaching or the Great Pyramid of Giza? Trick question—the answer is both! One of the Seven Wonders of the World, the awesome series of pyramids known as the Giza pyramid complex, or Giza Necropolis, has come to define our sense of historic and remarkable. While we can’t guarantee you’ll find sarcophagi and buried treasure on your trip to Giza, our Geocache of the Week, Casket 4 (GCYZQE), is sure to bring you a smiley and plenty of adventure!
