CITO dates from April, 2003, See Pinned topic on it here, (visit link)
A number of Earthday Clean up events were published for April 26, Earthday that year. After the publication of these events, Jeremy invented the new CITO type, and applied to it to those already published April Clean up events.

The whole group of Clean up caches from April 2003 were first - I'm not going to bookmark them all. |

Houston Webcam Cache #1 10/11/2001
|
|
|
Here's a conversation about webcam caches in the forums from October 2001
(visit link)
several webcam caches are mentioned. This Houston cache being the oldest of that bunch. The type was created a bit later and applied retroactively.
The cache type must have happened in Jan or Feb 2002, see the forum posts below, in Jan 2002, it didn't yet exist, and by Feb 28 it did.
Moun10Bike Posted 04 January 2002 - 07:54 AM I wouldn't mind seeing a webcam cache icon/type (discussed previously) as well as one for traveling caches.
Mr. Snazz_*Posted 28 February 2002 - 06:45 AM there is also a cache type, the 'webcam cache'.

Cache was originally moving, and given the "new" Mystery type after May 2001. Seems to be the oldest surviving Unknown cache; although the cache in its current incarnation only dates from 2005. This is an old listing, but not an old cache. |

Open Space Letterbox 7A, 1/4 section corner 01/15/2001
|
|
|
this probably isn't the first letterbox cross listed to Geocaching.com, but it's the oldest active Letterbox hybrid in the US and the first cache in New Mexico, so what the heck ;-) Some old forum threads reference as many as 15% of listings being cross listed letterboxes. |
