Current Goal

I would like to get to the east coast, possibly the mouth of the St Laurence , then maybe down the east coast.
Now that I have reached the Atlantic, a trip around Florida would be nice, I hear there is some great kayaking in the Keys.

About This Item

Drifter

I'm a kayaking smurf toy. I would like to head down stream from here, maybe eventually reaching the mouth of the St Laurence, or somewhere else on the eastern seaboard. It.s not necessary to always be in a cache along the water, but it would be nice sometimes. I started here on Belle Isle because my owner enjoys kayaking in these waters, starting from here and heading down river or over to Peche Isl on the Canadian side 1 mile up river. If you have a digital camara, please take my picture. Thanks and east coast, here I come.

Discovered It 9/16/2023 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 😉

Looks as though Drifter has dissappeared along with Weirs the Dam Cache. 😟 Who knows, maybe he will somehow reappear again.

I found DRIFTER stuck on a bridge in Virginia on the Holston River. My son loves him. We will get him moving again ASAP.

Got so excited that I forget to log the thing out at the cache site!! He's so cute and reminds me of my son the kayaker!! Got big plans for his departure in 2 weeks for really big kayaking on the east coast so stay posted.

My first Travel Bug! and best of all my wife Robin went with me! If was her first cache. I will take good care of Drifter and make sure he's moved to a good cache near water.
