Geocache Description:


This cache is part of the 2019 FUN Geocoin Challenge. Everyone knows you need a passport to have FUN. Be sure to download and print your FUN Passport (and find other helpful resources) at FUN Geocoin Challenge and get started today!

You are probably familiar with the story of the Three Billy Goats Gruff. Three goats try to cross a bridge to greener pastures, only to be challenged by a troll, who they eventually throw into the water.


The children's story ends there, leaving a pleasant thought of goats happily frolicking in the pasture on the other side. What the stories miss, is that trolls can swim, and they hold really long grudges! The troll drug itself out of the water shortly downstream, and made a new home under this iron bridge. The story of the goats may be almost 200 years old, but the troll is still mad!

It is highly recommended that you never cross this bridge with a goat for company, you might anger the troll below. Locals don't recommend exploring under this bridge either, as the troll might mistake you for a goat if you wake it up.

No, to safely cross the bridge, best stay on the path. You might just make it to greener pastures if you do!

Whatever you do, Don't Bring a Goat!




This cache is part of the 2019 Fantastic Unbelievable Nonsense Geocoin Challenge where everything is made up and the points don't matter. If it's been FUN, it probably happened in Spokane. This is a goat cache? You've got to be "kidding" us (see what we did there?!?!) Seriously, heed the warning because upon your successful completion of the FUN Geocoin Challenge you will be rewarded with a trackable Geocoin, and we aren't kidding around. (Oops, we did it again!)
  • All caches begin with the series name FUN: followed by a snazzy name so they are easy to search. We also made a FUN Bookmark of the caches.
  • To qualify for a Geocoin, find the code word or stamp in each geocache and record it on your passport.
  • Visit FUN Geocoin Challenge to find the challenge rules, a printable FUN Passport, and a map view of qualifying caches. Oh, and if you see CacheDFish (or you ARE CacheDFish) during your travels for this challenge, please remember to add 5,000 points to your personal total. If you see MtnGoat50, tell him to stay away from this cache!
