Geocache Description:


🇸🇮 Igra Geocaching praznuje četrt stoletja. Od leta 2000, ko so računalniški in tehnološki zanesenjaki preizkušali sistem GPS s skrivanjem in iskanjem vsebnikov v naravi, je v 25 letih prerasla v svetovno igro, zaradi katere je septembra 2025 prišlo v Kamnik nekaj sto geolovcev iz 15 držav. HoG (History of Geocaching) georisba (geoart) je bila postavljena kot darilo udeležencem Kamnik 2025 Block Party dogodka in opomnik na bolj ali manj prelomne dogodke v četrtstoletni zgodovini igre.

Pomembni dogodki v letu 2003:

  • April (A): prvi CITO-dogodek organiziran v bližini Pittsburgha v ZDA.
  • Junij (B): prvi GeoWoodstock dogodek s 40-50 udeleženci organiziran v Louisvillu v ZDA.
  • September (C): postavitev spominske plošče na lokaciji prvega zaklada (Original Stash).
  • December (D): marep v Idriji postavi “Mercury Mystery”, prvi slovenski zaklad z uganko.

Zaklad se nahaja na N 46 13.(D-C+A)(D-C)(C-A) E 014 35.(D-A)(B-A)C

🇬🇧 The game of Geocaching is celebrating a quarter of a century. Since 2000, when computer and technology geeks tested the GPS system by hiding and searching for containers in nature, it has grown over 25 years into a global game, which brought a few hundred geocachers from 15 countries to Kamnik in September 2025. The HoG (History of Geocaching) geoart was placed as a gift to the participants of the Kamnik 2025 Block Party event and a reminder of the more or less significant events in the game's quarter-century history.

Notable events in 2003:

  • April (A): the first CITO event takes place near Pittsburgh in the USA.
  • June (B): the first Geowoodstock event with 40-50 attendees takes place in Louisville in the USA.
  • September (C): commemorative plaque placed at the site of the Original Stash.
  • December (D): marep places “Mercury Mystery”, the first Slovenian mystery cache, in Idrija.

Find the cache at N 46 13.(D-C+A)(D-C)(C-A) E 014 35.(D-A)(B-A)C
