Current Goal

This trackable has the goal to circulate more than five years and to be moved by at least 25 cachers. That is a rate of five drops per year for five years, or a drop every 73 days.   As of 9-May-21 it had survived for 298 days and had been moved by 5 cachers, for an average release every 60 days. Keep it moving!

No permission is needed to leave the U.S. While in the U.S., please drop it in a Premium Member only OR a rural cache near a busy trail or road. Do not place it in an urban cache or abandon it at a caching event where there is no security. Transport the bug in the original plastic bag for as long as the bag lasts; the bag keeps the trackable clean, protects the number and prevents tangling with other items. Otherwise, take the trackable anywhere you wish.

About This Item

The settlement of Moscow was established in 1887.  One tradition says, the community was named for a member of de Soto's expedition, the maestro de campo (field commander) Luis de Moscoso.  Moscoso took command of the expedition after de Soto's death. During the settlement name registration there were a series of mistakes. The residents, in their application for a post office, had shortened it to Mosco. A postal clerk in Washington, upon receipt of their petition, being in a helpful spirit, and thinking the hay-seeds in the west didn't know their spelling, added a "w" to the name, changing it to Moscow.

I'm going to give this metal zig zag some miles. Maybe not to Moscow.

Such an interesting looking TB. Kind of reminds me of the Transformers movie.
