Geocache Description:


Noisy Creek

This is a Letterbox Hybrid Cache. A letterbox is another form of treasure hunting using clues instead of coordinates. Once a letterbox is found instead of signing a log book, you place your stamp mark in the letterbox's log book and place the letterbox's stamp into your own log book.

In some cases such as this, a letterbox hybrid has coordinates, making it a letterbox and a geocache. You can leave your stamp and get the cache's stamp in your own log book as in letterboxing, or you can simply sign the log book as in geocaching, or both.

This letterbox hybrid contains:

- A log book.
BRING YOUR OWN PEN.
- A rubber stamp.
BRING YOUR OWN INK PAD.
PLEASE LEAVE THEM IN THE CACHE!!

This cache is a tribute to
"Roosevelt Grove Cache" (GCDE4) which was
placed by Moun10Bike and Perry in the Inland Empire Chapter area on 06/27/2001.

 In September 2002, a group of 19 concerned geocachers scheduled a meeting after hearing that the Washington State Parks was considering banning geocaches in the state park system. Out of this meeting, the Washington State Geocaching Association (WSGA) was "born" with its core values of promoting geocaching as a fun, family-oriented outdoor activity that increases awareness and appreciation of the environment and our parks and trails, provide opportunities for participants to enjoy geocaching and to socialize with other geocaches, educate park systems and land managers about geocaching and its benefits, increase awareness and support of the geocaching through interaction with other outdoor groups and the public, encourage low-impact geocaching and promote stewardship of our natural resources, and support "Cache In Trash Out" activities to help maintain parks and trail systems.

In 2022, the WSGA turns 20 years young. To celebrate this milestone, the WSGA is hosting a 20th-anniversary GeoTour. This GeoTour will give you the opportunity to travel to all corners of the Evergreen State while you search for 140 GeoTour caches. To make it easier to tackle such a large GeoTour, each of our 7 regional chapters will host 20 chapter-specific geocaches in bite-sized GeoTours with the entire GeoTour consisting of 140 caches. To learn more about our GeoTour, please visit the GeoTour page on our website which you can find HERE. We hope that you enjoy getting back out on the road while touring around Washington State. If you have any questions about our GeoTour, you can reach out to us via the contact tab on our website.
