About This Item

The geography class at Bethlehem Academy in Faribault, MN is embarking on a geocaching challenge. Bethlehem Academy is a Catholic School educating and inspiring young people in Faribault since 1865. Ms. Caryn Coller (acbacks) challenged the 2023-24 8th grade World Geography class to create a travel bug and then track its progress. Help the class on this expedition by taking photos of the locations visited, share information about the location found, describe the location being dropped off, and most importantly keep moving the travel bug along.

Sorry we couldn't bring this to the ocean but here's how to get there: Roll about 200' downhill to Nine Mile Creek. Float 1.1 miles downstream to the Minnesota River. After 10 or so miles on the Minnesota you'll hit Bdote Minisota (the confluence of the Mississippi and Minnesota rivers). Travel the Mississippi for around 1800 miles and you'll hit the Gulf of Mexico. Good luck.

Perfect place for a shell travel bug to begin its adventure near a lake. This travel bug is part of a class project so help move it along and share pictures of its adventures. Good luck Shellby!
