Geocache Description:


Do you have a sense of DISCOVERY? Are you a real MOVER? If you're used to moving around or discovering lots of bugs, this challenge is for you!

Do you log your DNFs? There's a nearby challenge that rewards that.
Do you check up on geocaches? There's a nearby challenge that rewards that.
Do you meet other geocachers out on the hunt? There's a nearby challenge that rewards that.
Do you discover and move travel bugs? Now there's a challenge for that!

The cache IS at the posted coordinates!

You complete this challenge by moving or discovering 300 travel bugs from the travel bug dog tag category. Trackables move around the world collecting adventures and photos. Every geocacher, in their profile, has a tab called "Trackables." When viewing that tab, you can see the "List of Trackables Moved/Discovered." One category from that list is "Travel Bug Dog Tags." Tallying 300 of these is the goal of this challenge. Your travel bug-related past DOES COUNT for this challenge, so some geocachers already qualify.

You must move or discover 300 travel bug dog tags to complete this challenge.
In other words, satisfy the requirements at this web page/picture.
Trackables listed in other categories, even if they come with a dog tag or otherwise resemble qualifying trackables, do not count for this challenge. Geocoins and promotional trackables do not count for this challenge; it's only the count from the "travel bug dog tags" row of the "Trackables" tab in your profile.
There is no starting date for this challenge. Past history is on your side for this one.
In your "found it" log, indicate how many travel bug dog tags you have moved or discovered and the date you signed the log of the physical cache.
You must sign the log of the physical cache; you may sign the log before completing the challenge.

Congratulations to LewisClan77 on FTF #CDLXXXVI!
