About This Item

Trackable

Deutsch:
Der Text auf diesem Spezial-GeoCoin liest sich wie folgt: "Irrer vergräbt Bohnen im Wald. Der Beginn einer Sucht (von D. Runners). USA. Am 03.Mai 2000 macht sich D. Ulmer in der Nähe von Portland im Bundesstaat Oregon (USA) auf den Weg und versteckt einen Eimer, darin unter anderem auch eine Konserve mit Bohnen, im Wald. Unvorsichtigerweise veröffenlicht er die Koordinaten im Internet, und so bleibt es nicht aus, dass das Geheimversteck (engl. Stash) schon einen Tag später von N. Findus (Name v. d. Red. geändert) gefunden wird. Seit Ende Mai 2000 heissen Stashs nicht mehr Stashs, sondern Geocaches (geo=griechisch "Erde" und cache=engl. "geheimes Lager") und werden auf www.geocaching.com gelistet. Heute, 10 Jahre später, gibt es weltweit mehr als 1 Millionen davon in über 200 Ländern, von Afghanistan bis Zimbabwe. Die meisten Caches findet man in den USA (ca 500.000). Aber auch Deutschland ist süchtig nach Geocaching. Mehr als jeder 8. Cache liegt in Deutschland (ca. 130.000); der nächste wahrscheinlich nur einen Katzensprung entfernt von der eigenen Haustür. Weitergehende Informationen zum Thema findet man z.B auf www.geocaching.com, www.cachewiki.de, oder in Selbsthilfegruppen wie www.geoclub.de."


English:
The German text on this special GeoCoin reads as follows: "Madman buries beans in the forest. The beginning of an addiction (by D. Runners). USA. On May 03, 2000, D. Ulmer starts out near Portland, Oregon (USA) and hid a bucket, also including a tin can of beans in the forest. He carelessly published the coordinates on the Internet, and so it is only a matter of time until the secret stash is found a few days later by N. Findus (editor's name-change) is found. Since late May 2000 those Stashes are not any longer called stashes but geocaches (geo = Greek  for "Earth") and will be listed on www.geocaching.com. Today, 10 years later, there are more than 1 million of them in over 200 countries, from Afghanistan to Zimbabwe. Most caches are found in the United States (about 500,000). But Germany is hooked on geocaching as well. More than every 8th Cache is located in Germany (130,000), and the next is possibly only a stone's throw away from your doorstep. Further information on the subject can be found e.g. on www.geocaching.com, www.cachewiki.de, or in self-help groups such as www.geoclub.de."

BTW: "Cache am Sonntag" is German for "Cache on Sunday"
