On August 8, 2015 Oregon’s Mt. Hood Territory, in collaboration with a lot of great volunteers from the local geocaching community, launched the Cache the Stash Coin Challenge (CtS). The CtS was a six community challenge that was created to celebrate 15 years of geocaching. Which, as most of you know, is an activity that started right here in Clackamas County. The kick-off event was the largest geocaching event held in Oregon to date. If you were there for it thank you for coming. Cachers who completed all six community challenges received a set of coins that fit together to form a nifty cube which can be seen in all its glory here – https://www.mthoodterritory.com/plan-your-trip/cache-the-stash. It’s been over two years since we kicked off the CtS and activity has slowed considerably on the caching trail. It is with a bit of sadness that we have decided to retire the challenge as of Sept. 30, 2017. If you are still working on completing your cube there are a limited number of coins still available. Cache on friends!
