Regardless of who you are or where you come from, the desire to connect with former civilizations is a part of what makes us human. Understanding generations and cultures gone by can help define who we are and who we wish to be, both on a personal and societal level.
To get in touch with the past, our Geocache of the Week takes us to Malta, a Southern European island nation known for its expansive history, warm climate, and phenomenal geocaches. Be sure to bring your sunglasses, a pen, and plenty of excitement for our Geocache of the Week—the most Favorited Multi-Cache on Malta: Mdina (GC21534).

New Souvenir for 2/22/22 – Deuces Wild!
Feelin’ lucky? A unique date like 2/22/22 doesn’t happen very often, let alone on a Twos-day!
With a date as rare as this, we’re feeling the luck and decided to double the fun with a new souvenir! Celebrate Deuces Wild by logging any two geocaches or Event Caches on Tuesday, February 22, 2022 to earn the souvenir.
Whether you decide to go out and find some caches with a friend, aim for twice as many finds as usual, or even just take double the snacks, we hope you make this rare day something to remember!
Some might say it’s ‘two’ wild, but we say follow your in-two-ition, double down on your geocaching, and maybe, if you play the cards just right, you can be a winner ‘two’!
Go wild!
