Current Goal

Congratulations! You HAVEN'T found a Jeep -- you've found a "FEEP" (fake Jeep). These "Feeps" have been released to travel the world -- EXCEPT THE LOWER 48 STATES! Each year, Jeep (the company) sponsors a contest where you can find little Jeeps in caches and win prizes. Sadly, the contest is only for the lower 48 States. "Feeps" are for everyone else! Please do NOT take this from event to event or hold onto it -- it is meant to travel from cache to cache and NOT stay with any one cacher.

About This Item

Move from cache to cache and you may win a prize (a little, gift thing -- not much). Please do NOT take this from event to event or hold onto it -- it is meant to travel from cache to cache and NOT stay with any one cacher.

To see a list of the other "Feeps", go to the Track Travel Bugs Advanced Search page, and type "Feep" into the "By Keyword" box.

Here's a link to the forum thread where the "Feep" concept was launched by Lemon Fresh Dog.
 

(This "Feep" was named after our four-year-old nephew Max, an avid traffic-watcher who could identify Jeeps when he was two.)

    As per most established geocachers around Australia, we don't normally move on travel bugs as they usually have that many conditions placed on them these days such as, only move east, don't do certain things, don't take to events, don't discover etc. The extreme conditional movement phase that seems to have swept the world ended up being self defeating, which means that cachers don't touch them and they have stopped moving almost altogether. The last few events I went to, you have not seen a travel bug at all and people used to bring them from all over and give them to the geocacher who was most likely to move them onto their wanted targets and off they would go. Now, they seem to sit and sit and sit. I am petitioning all travel bug holders to try to remove all movement rules to get the fun back into the activity. I will move this one on shortly, but you may find that movement these days is restricted to newer geocachers.
