About This Item

Geo-Warhol

Geocaching began in May, 2000. The original geocache was hidden in Viola, Oregon - southeast of Portland. Among the trade items in the cache was a can of beans. This travel bug comemmorates that hide. If you are one of the "oldtimers" in your area, please post your impressions of the "old days".

Noticed this hasn't moved in awhile, so picked it up to move on. Will place in Louisiana.

I started caching in December 03, back when having 100 finds was still a big deal in my area.

Planning a geotrip to the Appalachian Trail, so we'll probably take this out that way.
