How to create a cache that tells a story
There’s nothing quite like the feeling of escaping into a good story, turning the pages of a book and forgetting about your actual surroundings as your mind sinks into the story’s plot and setting. While this sensation is typically associated with reading a book, it can also come from searching for a geocache. Plus, when a geocache has a story, you get to take the lead characters’ role and explore the outdoors as you search for the hide. Adding a narrative to a Multi-Cache, Mystery Cache, or Adventure takes what might feel like a straight-forward scavenger hunt and turns it into a captivating experience. Read on for tips on how to create a cache based around a story.
Creative caches: TB hotels
In this installment of our Creative caches series, we’re exploring the cozy world of Travel Bug® hotels. Commonly called TB hotels, these caches are larger sized creations with plenty of space for a trackable or Travel Bug® to take a quick rest before another geocacher picks it up to continue its journey. Cache owners with a talent for arts and crafts often display their skill in TB hotels with unique themes, decorations, and sometimes even set them up as intricate dioramas. Check out three great examples of these types of caches below and start making plans to create your own trackable retreat.
