About This Item

*This TB is a proxy - the original reamins with us*

Very few geocachers know but every geocache that contains swap items and is hidden well will be adopted and guarded by gnomes.
Why? Well gnomes love to hide their treasure too and believe that geocaches are human attempts to honour all gnome kind.

Male and female gnomes look very similar to each other and both grow full beards from the age of 3 months. The average lifespan of a gnome is 500 years and they reach adulthood at around 75 years of age. 
 
Every now and then, whilst you are out geocaching, if you stay very quiet, you may just see one of the GGGS (Gnome Geocache Guardian Squad). This elite squad of 8 gnomes live by the motto "Ni te pharkalu, quo lun verra lu". Which is Gnomish for "If you can find it easily, then 'it' is not it". A very apt motto for geocaching don't you think?

Myllyn Fuitbat is the busiest of the GGGS. He looks after small traditional geocaches and loves to keep things simple. He sits on a red and white mushroom, and can be recognised by his red hat and trousers, green shirt and brown boots. No glitter for this gnome, Myllyn is far too busy to worry about that sort of thing!
