The NCEES Surveyor Trackable

Geocachers and Professional Surveyors (P.S.) share a passion for technology and the outdoors. They both use GPS and surrounding clues to locate hidden marks or objects. But there is a difference. Professional surveyors take that passion for technology and the outdoors to a higher level and turn it into a career. The NCEES Surveyor Trackable captures that shared passion and brings the surveying profession to life for geocachers. Once you find an NCEES Surveyor Trackable, use its unique code to log it and keep it moving by placing it in another geocache. Before you know it, it will be exploring and mapping the great outdoors just like a Professional Surveyor (P.S.).

The NCEES Surveyor Trackable photo contest has ended, as of June 1, 2015. Please continue the fun and take photos at a National Geodetic Survey (NGS) marker and share it on Facebook or Twitter using the hashtag #PSnoboundaries! Visit geocaching.com/mark to learn about locating NGS survey markers.

About This Item

This NCEES trackable was a surprize to me, since I registered for it but then promptly forgot all about it.  Please don't let it be forgotten again - move it along as soon as possible.  Thanks!

October 19, 2021:  Since this trackable has not been moved in over a year, and the last person who reportedly retrieved it has not responded to messages or emails, I have made a replacement for it.  I hope that this trackable travels far and wide.  Please only retrieve if if you are willing to log it and move it along to another cache.  Thanks!

    Grab It (Not from a Cache) 3/5/2022 Barbpretz grabbed it   Visit Log

    The holder messaged me that they had placed this trackable in a cache, but it hasn't been logged in that cache yet. So, just so that the trackable isn't lost, I'm logging it for them.
