Current Goal

MICRO SPUD the tiny touring tater-head

Micro Spud has the same objective as his big brother Spud Potato Head and his other siblings Mini Spud and Tiny Tater. These guys are obsessed with travel and long to see every tacky tourist trap on Mother Earth. Unlike their famous brother, Micro Spud, Tiny Tater and Mini Spud are all traveling the globe via geocaches. Each trying to outdistance the other and even get to places their famous brother hasn't even been to yet!

About This Item

Micro Spud

Like his big brother Spud, Micro Spud likes to have his picture taken in different locales. Optimally, he would like to have photos that illustrate where exactly he is, so that others may recognize landmarks or features that are unique to that area when they look at the photos. Here’s some examples of photos his big brother has taken in his years of touring:

Spud Potato Head in Vegas Spud Potato Head pickets the White House Spud gets a little too friendly with the Totems of the Pacific Northwest

Spud bonds with the famous heads on Easter Island Spud navigates traffic in busy downtown London Spud visits the World Trade Center in 1998

You can find more photos and stories of Spud Potato Head’s adventures on his website at www.spudstravels.com

If you find Micro Spud in a geocache, then if possible, please take a photo of him in his new location and post it on this Travel Bug page.

Micro Spud gets very antsy if he sits around in one place for too long, so please try to keep him on the move from cache to cache!Remember that he's trying to outdistance Mini Spud & Tiny Tater, so let's try and rack up those miles!

Unfortunately your Travelbug Micro Spud is no longer in Eddie's Nakalele Blowhole Hideout.
Sadly it seems that Micro Spud is indeed missing.
As the owner, you can officially mark him as missing -- his page remains live and if he does surface at any time in the future, his recovery can still be logged.
If you aren't familiar with how to mark a bug missing - there is a dropdown beside 'Recalculate distance' on your travelbug's page. Use this dropdown and you will see the option to 'Mark bug missing'

Fingers crossed that he does show up one day - other lost bugs have mysteriously shown up again.

Because we were unable to find this cache (We wondered if it had been washed away) We are bringing Microspud back to the states with us. I do believe he rather enjoyed his stay!
