7 Deadly Ducks Tag

Now that the Duck Dash is done, this duck should just travel about so that people may enjoy it and collect the Deadly Duck icon.

Orignal goal:

To be in great snapshots posted to the geocaching website, be part of the best geocaching stories, travel great distances, to be moved or discovered by as many geocachers as possible, and visit as many geocaches as possible – all between 20JUL2016 and 20AUG2016. And it is all for naught if I don’t go to an event on 20AUG2016 – International Geocaching Day. So please please help me get to an event on Saturday, 20AUG2016.

7 Deadly Ducks Tag

On August 30, 2001, Geocaching.com Founder Jeremy Irish activated the world’s first trackable, TB1.
Jeremy says, “When we first started Travel Bugs, I released 7 Deadly Ducks in the wild.” Each of the new trackables were based on one of the deadly sins. These Deadly Ducks, with the names of Envy, Sloth, Pride, Gluttony, Lust and Wrath, headed out into the world to travel from geocache to geocache. Thus began a game within a game: trackables. Today there are more than 2,655,951 trackables traveling around the world — making friends, creating memories and patiently waiting to complete their mission.

In honor of the 15th anniversary of trackables, there is a worldwide trackable race featuring the reincarnated Deadly Ducks.
The race will begin July 20, 2016 at 12:01am PST and ends on August 20, 2016 at 11:59pm PST.
