Current Goal

 PLEASE BE SURE TO REGISTER ON GEOCACHING.COM THAT YOU RETRIEVED AND DROPPED THIS TRACKABLE OFF FROM AN OLD TO NEW CACHE LOCATION! HELPS TRACKING ON THE MAP! :)

                                                                 

Congrats!  You've found the CacheTac!!! Rocky Mountain Bound #1 trackable.  This trackable's mission is clear:  

Head west!  Drop this trackable off at either small, regular, large sized caches meant for trading trackables, TBs, and geocoins to the west (if exchange caches aren't close to you that's fine, just anything that fits and to the west!).  The eventual goal of this trackable is to reach the final geocache destination at Mt. Royal in Frisco, CO:

So, if you're already in Colorado / Denver area, great!  Take a trip to the mountains down I-70 to enjoy the great town of Frisco, and drop this off at the "Cajun Cache" cache as listed above.  This particular geocache is located close to the top of Mt. Royal, so be prepared for quite the hike up up and away (not that bad really).  You can find information regarding the very rewarding and beautiful hike here:

If you don't have the time to make the drive to Frisco, no worries!  Just continue to send this travel bug further west towards the Rockies.  If you've found this already at the "Cajun Cache" cache, just leave it as is so I can eventually retrieve it in the near future!

Thanks for your amazing effort in this crazy journey back to my old home state!!!

About This Item

About this "CacheTac" trackable:

                                                                      

What is a CacheTac exactly? My girlfriend and I were brainstorming while geocaching one day, and got the idea to put trackable dog tags (TBs) in TicTac containers. They're the perfect size for TBs, sturdier than a conventional plastic bag (which most TBs sadly travel in), and there's also a little extra room for a keychain and note about the trackable's mission. We eventually hope to distribute hundreds of these playful "CacheTac" trackables all over the U.S., and hopefully the world! CacheTac's are meant to be passed along like any other trackable, please do not hold on to it for very long unless you have the perfect destination in mind for it to continue its mission. Also, I don't plan on selling CacheTacs, so please don't email me about obtaining one, lol; we just want to put the idea out in the open as a safer, more fun and creative solution to trackable travel!

Not much else to describe about this trackable, other than my background and relation to why this trackable is bound for the Rocky Mountains!

I grew up in Denver in the 90s before moving to the east of the Mississippi.  In today's digital era, hiking is pretty much the only thing that can pry me from the screen, so I suppose these trails and mountains have engrained a subconcious desire to get outside and be free.  

If you've got some time to kill inbetween geocaches, I have an optional challenge for you.

OPTIONAL:

Take a picture of yourself, pointing to the tallest thing near you (trees also count lol).  Upload your photo here on this trackable page when you either retrieve or dropoff this trackable at a cache (any cache, not just in Colorado).  Thanks!

Enjoy your adventures!
