Current Goal

Fred's 1st mission is to travel to our good Geocaching buddies up the east coast to see how they are doing and report back. His itenerary will travel with him so that checkpoints of his journey can be marked off so you will know where to send him next. Fred will start in his home cache (Fred's House - GCTT6Y) in Charlotte, NC and will return once he finishes his mission. Fred is a real ham so he loves the camera. He wants to have his picture taken with our friends ShadwSrch in Sanford, NC and You Enjoy Myself in Sayville, NY. Fred is also a people person....er....bottlecap and loves to meet new people. Please take a picture of yourself with Fred and post it, so he can have a photo album of his new friends! If you find Fred without his itenerary please contact The Bottlecaps so that we can send you a replacement itenerary to send with him on his journey.

Discovered It 9/14/2023 MiriCach discovered it   Visit Log

"TL;DR: We don't have the trackable (and feel sorry for you if it means it is still missing), but stumbled upon its discovery code.

The story: I discovered this trackable/coin when I cracked the cache ""Msportis Coinlihaus der 2."" and then was able to reverse-engineer some Coins/TBs of the owner Msporti as well. By pure chance / luck while testing out possibilities for this I also came across this TB/coin. We hope that it's okay that we discover it, if not, feel free to delete this log. TFTC/TFTT ;-)"
