    Sorry to report that your travel bug is no longer in the Purple Pumpkin People Eater cache along Tar Creek Trail. I am marking it missing. There were others who visited the cache after the TB was dropped. I hope one of them has your TB and is late to log.

    Dropped Off 6/10/2012 Hollingsgrose placed it in Purple Pumpkin People Eater California - 47.32 miles  Visit Log

    The last of our swim stops with this bug. We left it at our favorite swimming hole. Tar Creek is the best local secret in California! It's getting to late in the year for much more river swimming so it will have to got to the beach next. Best of luck.

    • best water shoot yet!
    • A wonderful swim Love our waterproof camera (Olympus Stylus Tough 6020 for those of you looking to have wet adventures). Its a little slow, so i always miss the action and get the splash but at least we can have it with us stress free)

    • Splashing through canyon in Utah. Willis Creek. Wonderful hike. Felt adventurous hopping over this little creek all the way through this slot canyon on way to Willis Creek Cashe
    • The Narrows, UT This is photo Geochase site but couldnt be bothered to log it by text as too busy getting wet. Still, had the Swim Bug with us anyway.
    Grab It (Not from a Cache) 4/9/2012 Hollingsgrose grabbed it   Visit Log

    Grabbed from my Grose #1 during a delayed Christmas visit to UK. Have brought it back across the pond. It is currently sunbathing in Pasadena, CA waiting for me to go hiking.

    Strangely, since we've been looking after this TB we've been to lots of watery caches. This was a real challenge, in freezing water four feet deep, without a wetsuit. Great fun for all though. Photos to follow hopefully.

    A visit to a snowy British seafront. Sorry, I didn't have a camera with me.

    The bug came on a trip by the River Thames. The river is tidal here and we just missed being able to get to this watery cache.
