THIS CACHE PLACED AS PART OF THE FEATHER ROAD GEOTOUR.
This year, as part of Midwest Geobash 2022, we've created a 15 cache GeoTour around Northwest Ohio exploring local towns and communities that have been great supporters of Midwest Geobash over the last 18 years. This GeoTour is designed to be a fun and simple caching experience in rural Northwest Ohio that can be completed in a single day or less. Each geocache is a simple trivia question you'll need to answer using a bit of MWGB history. All of the information can be found on the website, and as you'll see, the trivia question is quite simple. Once you've determined the cache location, visit the cache location, sign the log book, and make note of the code word on the log sheet. Once you've found all 15 geocaches on the tour, you'll be rewarded with a unique digital souvenir for your geocaching.com profile, and you'll have the opportunity to earn a collectible, trackable Feather Road GeoTour Geocoin (while supplies last). You can pick up your passport at the Midwest Geobash event info center Wednesday-Saturday July 20-23, 2022. After that, passports will be available to print on our website at feather.mwgb.org.
This cache features one of our most under-utilized mascots. The cardinal (also the state bird of Ohio) joined us for a sports themed year. The sports year marked a year of transition for the MWGB team, and the cardinal hasn't really done much since. But he's definitely still pretty cool! Do you know what year the Cardinal made his debut?
To find this cache, you'll need to answer this trivia question:
