The Trading Post

We've been collecting sig items since we started caching in late 2002. Now it's time to set them free. We've organized our collection (in ziplock bags) by categories: There are the historic keychains, the increasingly common Bumble Buttons (and similar items from other vendors), and the perennially popular laminated cards. Of course there are some wooden nickels, plus a few poker chips and other, similar slugs. From way out West, you'll find a few octagonal "Geo-Tokens," which are individually numbered for tracking purposes. There's no website for logging their movements, but you are supposed to let the owners know what you do with them, whether you keep them or move them on.

Then there are the creative ones - unique items such as Utah Jean's custom wooden creations, Labboo's ghost samplers, and our own compilation CDs. You'll find examples of those, too, in the Trading Post (while supplies last).

The Online Museum

We couldn't say goodbye to all these items without taking pictures, and we're sure you'll feel the same way about the sig items you bring. So, why not post those pix with your logs, as we've done with the original stock? In that way, the gallery pages for this cache will serve as a growing web-based record of the diversity and creativity that's out there in the world of geocaching.

Desiderata

  • This is a theme cache: Please trade only sig items (trackables of all types are also welcome).
  • To sustain this Trading Post & Online Museum, it's essential that everyone trade up or even. Thanks!
  • The Online Museum depends upon pictures. They're not required to log this cache, but they sure are appreciated (& please at least log your trades, even if it's just "TNLN"). Thanks again!
